A new festival (and absolutely nothing to do with the ill fated Pickering Folk Festival!) except being near by.

Acts confirmed so far include: Wendy Arrowsmith - The Arrowsmiths & Joolz Cavell - Roscoe La Belle - Brother Crow - Graham Brotton - Emma Forman - Richard Grainger & The Darklands Band - Shirley Higton - Landermason - Kim Ralls - Stormcrow - Ethan Thomas- Penni Maclaren Walker

I would expect there will be plenty of informal singarounds and sessions as well.

Just £20 + £5 camping for the weekend!

Details here: Cropton Folk & Roots 2009

Apparently camping is in the Orchard, which sounds extremely pleasant!

Anyone fancy it?
