For some reason this festival seems to have had less publicity than one might expect.

It has one heck of a line up - especially the wonderful Salsa Celtica, and awesome Back of the Moon Band and the amazing Dooonan Family Band. Young local band Kerfuffle are also there, plus loads of other top quality artists including two of my favourites Simon Mayor and Hilary James - please tell the Parrot Joke.

It is dead handy for the M1 and since I originate from Sheffield I can tell you the site is great and very handy transport wise.

The organisers promise hot showers in the school and I think they may be short of stewards - so those of you who do that sort of thing get onto the website.

Interest declaration - there will be a well-known seller of previously cherished folk books plying his trade.

A small added attraction.
