Mary Anne Hobbs sits in and prepares for the 2015 6 Music Festival

Mary Anne Hobbs sits in for Lauren Laverne and looks ahead to the 2015 6 Music Festival in Tyneside, plus she looks back on the highlights of the previous year's inaugural event.

With the 6Music festival just days away, Mary Anne looks forward to our weekend on Tyneside, and takes a moment to reflect on the highlights of last year's inaugural event in Manchester.

There's an essential 3 Minute Epiphany from one of this year's performers, the wonderful Neneh Cherry, who shares the story of how she found her voice, and, of course, the little daily treats that are your MPFree and Headphones moment.

Plus, Mary Anne will be asking for your advice on attending a festival in a city, you can leave the wellies, tent and loo roll at home but what essentials should you be taking with you?
