   About Sidmouth FolkWeek
One of the longest-running folk festivals in the UK (now over 50 years!) Sidmouth FolkWeek happens from Friday 31 July - Friday 7 August 2009. If you've been before, you'll know all about having a whole week filled with a fantastic selection of music, singing, pubs, seaside, dancing, more pubs, and sitting up late on the campsite with brand new best friends. The choice is yours because - as Jim Moray said – ‘The important thing about Sidmouth, as someone who has attended most years of my life, is that it doesn’t belong to “them” in the way that other festivals do, it belongs to everyone to make their own thing out of.’

The full programme is available to download now from sidmouthfolkweek.co.uk featuring over 500 concerts, dances, workshops and events. We think this might be our most award winning line-up yet, with the likes of Jim Moray, Jackie Oates, Lau, Spiers and Boden all recipients of several BBC Folk Awards in recent years.

This year at Sidmouth there's a whole new area called The Hub. The entire Port Royal and Ham area is now a new performance centre, bringing together the extended Ham Concert venue, the Ham Lawn (where you can eat and drink), an open mic stage and a pedestrianised area with dance displays, the Festival’s own brand of street theatre and the Festival Box Office. Come and visit The Hub every day.

Visit sidmouthfolkweek.co.uk to book your tickets now.

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this folk-carol on myspace...
Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details): 
CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY

As gospellers have said,
Beneath signalling skies,
On land dusty to tread,
A trough in a stable
Was the strawy first-bed
Of a divine baby -
The forgiving Godhead.

A season for new hope -
There then and here now;
The yuletide of goodwill -
There then and here now.

In respect of this chance,
Beneath bright or dark skies,
Faith's the star that we glance
Attending Christ's churches
And trying to enhance,
With singing and ritual,
Our God-loving stance.

A...

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace... 

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog): 
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001 

Where traditions are not so rare; 
    Sea, country and works scent the air; 
A multitude of monuments, 
    Planted tubs and patterned pavements. 

The longish pedestrian malls; 
    The remnants of defensive walls; 
Historic buildings are a gauge 
    Of the respect for heritage. 

Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; 
    Estuaries guarded by shields; 
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; 
    Romantic-ruin go-betweens. 

Rivers in parts licked by trees, 
    Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, 
And crossed by practical delights - 
    Varied spans, forming pleasing sights. 

Fine churches headed at Durham; 
    Football kits ad infinitum; 
Kept castles - one for study; 
    Masonry behind masonry. 

And, with moulding-works out that way, 
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
