Green Diesel
the Kent-based 5 piece have roots in traditional folk music, with an added dash of prog-rock and a sprinkling of psychedelia, evocative of Trees, Fairport Convention and early Genesis.

- 4/5 stars - '(Green Diesel bring..) a psychedelic, progressive edge to their interpretations of both traditional and original material - Shindig!

The Witchcraft & Vagrancy Act
TWAVA combines experimental arrangements with traditional songs and tunes to unearth the uncanniness in folk music. Expect tales of witchcraft, murder, and the supernatural, as they create their uniquely spooky interpretation of the folk canon utilising a variety of instrumentation.

Bity Booker
Pastoral alt-folk musician; Bity creates compositions which are pleasingly sparse combining melodic vocals and guitar to create songs with a mystic charm.
