DJs to play on 'cult' 376 bus between Glastonbury and Bristol

DJs to play set on 'cult' bus route A group of DJs will celebrate a bus route between Glastonbury and Bristol by performing on board.

Four young musicians from Glastonbury named themselves '3SEVEN6' after the 376 bus service.

Charlie Chamberlain, 26, Harley Kingham, 22, Hayden Salter, 24, and Josh Herridge, 28, will perform perform aboard the bus during Glastonbury's illuminated carnival.

Mr Chamberlain said: "We have joked about DJing on the actual 376 for so long; we still can't actually believe we have been given the opportunity to do that."

Mr Chamberlain has gone as far as to having the numbers 376 tattooed across his stomach.

He said: "There is such a massive local cult following for the 376 bus. It's part of a lot of people's lives when they want to go out.

"Some of the best nights of my life have started on the back of the bus.

"Doing the whole set on your own is horrible. You don't get to socialise. It's nice having the boys so we can go back to back so we can enjoy the party as well as host the party."

'Massive party scene' Mr Kingham added that the bus route, which has services running late into the evening, is "critical".

He said: "It's honestly the most important thing. There's a massive party scene in Bristol and it's the closest city to us."

Christian Lockyer, PR Manager for First West of England, said there was a "serious side" to the performance.

"Their story of using the 376 bus service to find freedom from the rural parts of Somerset to the bright lights of Bristol is really inspiring," Mr Lockyer said.

"It shows the freedom that bus travel can offer, especially to those living in more isolated areas or with limited access to transport."

'3SEVEN6' will be performing on the bus on 16 November.
