Festival Weekend Listings Friday The Wing Faced Earth Figs 9.15pm https://www.facebook.com/events/388125751912183/ The Wing Faced Earth Figs were freshly formed in the past few years festival circuit. Combining the musical experience of Jake on folk fiddle, Ollie playing incredible jazzy flute and Jolly with his off the wall lyrics, guitar and clarinet, creating an infectiously dance-able delight that still seeks an accurate definition-”bounding campfire jazz”? you wont be disappointed. |

Sunday
Irish Session 12 noon - 4pm 28th – Garry 'The Slide' Guy – 4:30pm Garry Smith is on a mission to "Take Slide Guitar out of the Blues ghetto". So, not so much of the Delta repertoire you might expect when you see the National Resophonic Tricone he plays but a set mostly consisting of his own songs and instrumentals influenced by the likes of Nick Lowe, Joe Ely, Richard Thompson, Sonny Landreth and Ry Cooder. Expect songs about romantic loss, sex and English social history. www.slideguysmith.com www.facebook.com/garryslide |
