User reviews

I can tell you why Seth & co. wasn’t the headliner (good though they were). It’s because Eric Bibb and his band were truly spellbinding. Pure magic.

A great festival, brilliantly organised in all respects.
Really loved the variety of music. Bring back Corinne
West next year-she has a voice to die for & an amazing stage presence. Also enjoyed Chris Smithers immensley. Thanks is also due to the steward on the gate (the guy in glasses) who was really helpful. Pig Dyke Molly not only looked fantastic but were great characters. P.S. looking forward to 2010!!!

Kathryn Roberts and Sean Lakeman were brilliant. After their set, I reckoned nothing that followed could touch them - I was right. Kathryn was spell-binding.
