Thursday
21:00 Lunabarge – a double-stomping, energetic, uplifting, indie-folk duo. They are armed with banjo, guitar, ukulele, 2 voices and 2 stomp boxes. They like to find the little things in life that make it worth living and encapsulate them in their catchy original songs.
22:30 My Mate Dave are an acoustic female fronted four piece, combining upcycled folk, vaudeville, pop and close harmony. They play banjo, uke, fiddle and flute with four voices. Their music is mostly self-written and they draw influences from gypsy folk to 70’s glam rock and back again, with a nod to balladeers and minstrels of times past on the way. The result is an interesting mix of original music, with a few reworked familiar songs, some as acapella pieces with four part harmony.
Friday
21:00 Johnny Kowalski and his Sexy Friends.
22:30 Muddy Summers and the DFWs. Doombox: Get off my t*ts!: 2023 album on Bandcamp: muddysummers.bandcamp.com/album/seeing-seeds
Saturday
18:00 Witan Tree – Shropshire based folk group, their repertoire embraces Shropshire related themes, songs of country life and songs of myth and mystery.
20:00 The Refreshers – feel-good 80s, Ska and other up-tempo dance music!
