Watch: Frankie & The Heartstrings live at Radio 1's BIG WEEKEND
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater May 24th, 2010

This last weekend just gone was Radio 1's Big Weekend. I think ONE BIG WEEKEND is the proper title for it all but anyway. It took place in Bangor, North Wales which, though I've never been, I'm assured it's lovely. A fair few artists performed, as you'd expect, like Cheryl Cole, Justin Bieber and (The) Black Eyed Peas.

Obviously we're not that interested in them, but some acts might tickle your fancy a little bit more, such as Frankie & The Heartstrings. The BBC have kindly allowed us (and everyone else) to embed videos of a few performances on the Introducing stage from the weekend. You can watch 'Tender', 'Hunger' and 'Ungrateful' below:
