Back from a fabulous Loudhailer Seaside Special weekend at Filey Folk Festival. Big thanks to everyone who came along, we had wonderful performances with magic moments throughout the weekend and terrific audiences. Thanks to the Filey Folk Festival crew, especially Ian Kennington, Dave and Megan at Africa Studios and John Colling and everyone at the Masonic Hall for being brilliant and making us all so welcome.
Here’s a gallery of Rich’s photos from Saturday afternoon. You can see by the pictures we had super sets and lots of laughs. Click on an image to see the full picture and scroll along…
Saturday 29th April 2017 at Filey Masonic Hall
Work in Progress – Cowboy DC, Kelvin and Lewis – it’s hard to keep still from the moment they hit the groove right through their feel good set of original and traditional foot stomping bluegrass and up tempo country songs.
Gifford Rolfe, Roy Kibbler and Joan Foye – superb northern England songs with a touch of Americana from Gifford and Joan segue into Roy’s astute word-smithery, a mix of fun, politics and observations of life. A whole show within the show.
Jim Orwin – superbly crafted songs of life in Hull, from the Boulevard Boys to Gypsyville Girls – classic songwriting at its very best.
Aviatrix – Amanda Lowe, Lou Duffy-Howard. Ellie Gaynard and Jessica Lawson – a new collaboration of women perform Amanda’s Amy Johnson Song Cycle – lush vocal harmonies, autoharp, violin, guitars, mandolin and bass.
