Milton Hide
Milton Hide, Jim Tipler and Jo Church from East Sussex, weave eloquent, well-crafted story-based songs. Milton Hide release their long-awaited third album, Bungaroosh, at this event. Jim Tipler and Jo Church from East Sussex, weave eloquent, well-crafted story-based songs. “Eclectic in style, sound and subject matter. Delightfully engaging and distinctly moreish … There’s political comment and dark undercurrent … so subtle and easy is the music that you don’t realise the stiletto has arrived until it’s slid in…A very welcome addition to the contemporary roots’ scene” – RnR Magazine

Daria Kulesh – the voice of fairytales
With a unique heritage in the North Caucasus and a moving story to tell, Daria accompanies herself on guitar (with a fondness for DADGAD), bouzouki, shruti box and bodhran, but the focus is on the singing and the storytelling. “Refreshingly different, powerful songwriting” – FolkWorld
