"There can't be many places better to be…" 🌳
We're rather chuffed. came along to FBTO this year, and their review of Seasick Steve's set had some very kind words for the day - calling us “one of the most laid-back festivals around, and just the place to be on a long, hot Sunday afternoon”. We're inclined to agree!
Steve strolled on as the sun dropped towards the tree line, opened with a knowing "this is a folk festival, right?", and worked through what felt like a different homemade guitar for every song. Cigar boxes, a plank-and-wire diddley bow played with an old screwdriver, hubcaps and a broom handle. Raw blues, a few tall tales, and by the end he was down at the front shaking hands and signing guitars.
A proper showman, and a golden-hour set we won't forget in a hurry.
