Friday 4th September
Sleeping States + Silent Devices £6 adv./£8 door
Sleeping States(Bella Union), the musical project of Bristol, UK-based Markland Starkie, has been boldly evolving and flowering since 2004. Markland's transient, ever-moving nature is revealed in his musical style and progression. An upbringing learning various musical instruments and classical theories fused by D.I.Y punk, experimental noise ethos that hit Marland as he hit university is the true source of Sleeping States.
"The beautiful fusion of folk-laced songs and found sounds here evokes a languid summery feel akin to early John-Martyn...like Colin Blunstone singing for Tyrannosaurus Rex" - Uncut Magazine 4*
"Homemade, hyper-sensitive atmospherics... peiced together from recorded birdsong, rippling guitar lines, gentle snare and samples" Q Magazine 3*

Saturday 12th Sept
Martin Carthy + Dave Swarbrick + Jack  McNeill and Charlie Heys £12.50 Adv/ £15.00 Door
For more than 40 years Martin Carthy has been one of folk music's greatest innovators, one of its best loved, most enthusiastic and, at times, most quietly controversial of figures. His skill, stage presence and natural charm have won him many admirers, not only from within the folk scene, but also far beyond it. Trailblazing musical partnerships with, amongst others, Steeleye Span, Dave Swarbrick and his award-winning wife (Norma Waterson) and daughter Eliza Carthy have resulted in more than 40 albums, but Martin has only recorded 10 solo albums, of which the much anticipated Waiting for Angels (Topic TSCD527) is the latest.

Sunday 13th September
Charlie Parr + Jack Blackman £6 adv/ £8 door.
A confused and shy individual, Charlie Parr plays original and traditional folk and Piedmont-style blues, accompanying himself on National resonator guitars, 12-string guitar and sometimes a banjo. He’s released 6 cd’s, 4 of which are still available, the latest of which is called “Roustabout” and contains something like 14 tracks of original and traditional folk music recorded in true monophonic sound.
