S15 Ep 2 - RISE: The festival within Henley Festival

The RG10 Podcast Season 15 Episode 2

In this special episode, we go behind the curtain of one of the UK’s most exciting platforms for emerging talent: RISE at Henley Festival.

First, we sit down with Emma Ellis the visionary behind the RISE programme, to explore how Henley Festival is supporting the next generation of artists, entrepreneurs, and changemakers. We unpack the mission, selection process, and what makes RISE more than just a stage — it’s a launchpad.

Then, meet Katya — award-winning singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist — who was named the inaugural Westcoast RISING Star in 2024. Katya shares her journey from DIY home recordings to performing at Glastonbury, how she blends jazz, soul and electronic beats, and what RISE meant for her growth as an artist.

Whether you're a creative on the rise, a festival fan, or just love discovering bold new voices — this one's for you.
