Kate Rusby, Afrocelts, Croft no. 5, Mas y Mas, Roy Bailey, Peatbog Fairies, and basically everyone I’ve ever seen at Towersey festival. Folk festivals are amazing, the atmosphere is so different to any other kind of festival, no bullshit advertising and dickheads, just loads of friendly safe people sitting around playing instruments and enjoying the music. And you don’t have to pay through the nose to get into them either!

bloody hell, the late 70s/early 80s really are coming back…. :laugh_at:

I like these from myspace, folk influenced type stuff:
