There are lots of music performers, and my band Rhyzome are playing at the Arts Cafe at the St Martins in the Bullring church at 2.30pm on Saturday 10th Sept - it would be great to see anyone there! Find out more at artsfest and Rhyzome website If you live within 50 miles of Birmingham, it is something you really shoudn't miss!! |

Apart from the CBSO, there is little in the way of "English" (ok with a small e )that the organisers recognise. Thats why we go to Bromyard! |

And quite why this is important is beyond me - it doesn't purport to be 'English'! I wasn't suggesting that you regular Bromyard visitors would give up your festival, I was promoting an event that I always visit, and this year I am playing! Take it or leave it! |
