Subject: RE: So thats seth lakeman is it? I believe it is!
So here's my fivepenneth, I met Seth a few years ago, when helping at a local festival, a quiet and unassuming young man and shy, but he and his pal Benji sat in a sweaty little room in our local high school the day before his performance on the mainstage, (he wasn't a headline just a young and up and coming musician - we always encourage those at MFAB) and with a handful of kids nearly the same age as himself and from start to finish - they wrote a song, yep all the lyrics and set it to a tune, which they played together at the end of the day. I called in a couple of times during the day. I was enthralled. I wonder if one of those kids still has the song tucked away at home somewhere? I couldn't get Seth to do a school workshop this year! But he is playing my mainstage!

Check out Middlewich Folk and Boat Festival website Middlewich Folk and Boat Festival 15th - 17th June

Future folk? I don't care what you call it, it is good quality music from a young man who can knock it out live.

Good luck to him!
