Hi Leigh Folk,

Thank you for putting on yet another fantastic festival, you even booked some brilliant summer weather - obviously connections in high places!

It was a great pleasure to perform on the Foundry Stage. Super PA sound too.

Here's to next year's.

Kindest Wishes, Clive

"Absolutely wonderful. I cannot recommend highly enough catching them live if you get the chance." - Folk and Roots Online   The Kittiwakes are Kate Denny on vocals and violin, Chris Harrison on accordion and Jill Cumberbatch on violin, mandolin, and guitar. Their debut album ‘Lofoten Calling’ is being released by Midwich Records, and is original music based around the people, landscape, folklore and history of the Lofoten Islands, - an area above the Arctic Circle in Norway. The music is song based, and influenced by traditional British Isles and Norwegian folk music. The band have supported established artists such as Faustus, Kathryn Williams and Tim Van Eyken and are fast developing a following in their own right.
