Yes it's true! Folk On The Hill has risen from the ashes! As I understand it thanks are, in no small part, due to the artists themselves.

Here's the story, for anyone not in the twitterati:

Folk on the Hill Festival rises from the ashes. Sunday 11 August. A one-day event 1pm to 10pm. When the festival announced the cancellation of the two day folk festival in Harrow On The Hill due to a lack of ticket sales, the response of sympathy and support from artists and the folk community was overwhelming. So much so that backing has been found to distill this celebration of great live music into a one day event this Sunday 11th August in order to whet the appetite for and springboard a robust and brilliant future festival.Tickets are just £20 for all this:

Reg Meuross

India Electric Company

Jack Cookson

Ron Truman-Border

Herga Folk Club

Introducing Stage Craig Joiner, Odette Michell and Tom Reid

And here's where you can get tickets.

Hope to see some of you there! It's a great deal and deserving of support.
