Bideford Folk Festival 2005

Bideford Folk Festival 2005

Sessions & Singarounds

Singers and Musicians We want Bideford Folk festival to be a singers and players festival – because this is who we are – singers and musicians. Other festivals have a “fringe” of free events and sessions, at Bideford we want the “fringe” to be at the heart of the festival. During the festival we have lunchtime and evening sessions in rooms with great acoustics just waiting for singers, and musicians of all persuasions.

Song and music sessions will be informally organised with an MC to get things going and make sure everyone gets a chance to sing and play. If you would like to help with this, or lead a music session please email or call Hilary – hilary.bix@tesco.net (01237 470792).

If you are thinking of coming, whether as audience or participant, please contact us – we will love to hear from you. See you in August!
