Free Acoustic Festival – Peasholm Park –
North Bay – Scarborough – North Yorkshire – Y012 7TS – (01723 351983)
Following the resounding success of “Acoustic Gathering I & II” this year’s event rings the changes, the bill this year will not feature any acts from the previous 2 festivals but will feature many out of town guests, local acts who have not featured before, plus the fantastic 3 DAFT MONKEYS headlining. “Acoustic Gathering III” will take place on Sunday 14th September 2008 in the beautifully revamped faux-oriental setting of Peasholm Park.
The acoustic acts will perform from the bandstand on the lake under the towering gaze of the gloriously rebuilt pagoda.
Similarly to last years event, over 20 acts will feature on the bill, and over half of them will be guests from all over the country showcasing a nationwide wealth of talented singer songwriters, this festival gives them the platform to perform in front of as many as 2000 music lovers.
Featuring over 20 acts ranging from local legends Stony, to the madcap mayhem of Manfat Voodoo & Johnny Jump Up, Flamenco Guitarist Mark Boden from Middlesbrough, phenomenallly talented duo Morales/Watts, to rising modern female artistes such as Steph Fraser, Holly Taymar & Natasha Johansson.
The event will be headlined by Cornwall based 3 Daft Monkeys, who combine rousing vocals, frenetic fiddling, rhythmical 12-string guitar, dancing bass and foot drum.
" A brilliant Band ... absolutely amazing "
Mike Harding, BBC Radio 2
Whether it's Celtic, Balkan, Gypsy, Spanish, Cornish or other World Music you are drawn to, you will hear it's influences in their self written music. Add to this the band's varied backgrounds from Dance, Dub, Punk, Reggae and Traditional Folk, and you have a stunning combination.
Their highly anticipated new studio album ‘Social Vertigo’ has been hailed as a dynamic and astonishing album, demonstrating superbly the band’s varied and accomplished musicianship.
Whatever your taste in music, come and see them live ... their unique blend of high octane, funked-up folk is guaranteed to get you dancing!!
Preceded by ex Little Angels vocalist Toby Jepson (currently with Fastway & Gun), and witness the return of Fame Academy star Alastair Griffin plus a set from Edwina Hayes, a fantastic Country & Western artiste who performs regularly in Nashville, and recently supported Nanci Griffith and The Blue Moon Orchestra at The Wedgewood Rooms, Portsmouth.
All facilities are on site including catering, bar, toilets, festival stalls, kids entertainment area, & as the dusk falls, projections will illuminate the stage.
With plenty of room for families, lots of space to relax and disabled access, everybody is welcome at Scarborough’s very own boutique acoustic festival which is shaping up up to be the must attend event of this year’s “Indian Summer”.
