Happy New Festival Year to you all.
I hope you are planning FolkStation 2010 into this year's schedule, a small new festival based on the Isle of Wight's award-winning Steam Railway. July 9th - 11th is the date.
Early bird tickets are available until the end of January.
In return for a few hours work each day you will receive a weekend ticket and a discount on the Ferry travel. As a small festival we won't need many so apply now!!
A full guest list is still being finalised but includes several Mudcatters. (In no particular order)
Vicky Swan and Jonny Dyer Patti Smith and Ned Clamp Hilary Ward Andrew McKay and Carol Etherton Valmai Goodyear and Spare Parts Concertina Band Kathy Wallis Cappella (Tony and Lesley) Wydwytch (Ken Stephens and Fiona Murfitt)
And of course headline bands including: Spiers and Boden Deborah Hodgson Lucid Smoke and Mirrors
Our own Island Dance sides will be joined by several top sides from the mainland for a full weekend of Morris displays.
