Aberfeldy Festival 1-2 Oct

 

The Aberfeldy Festival takes place over two nights and features a host of great bands.  Headlining will be the band Aberfeldy, named after the town and touring to promote their keenly anticipated third album Somewhere to Jump From. 

The line-up is studded with rising stars of the Scottish music scene. Singer-songwriter Dan Lyth, who supported Foy Vance last year, will be retuning, alongside Dundee’s The Hazey Janes, (who have invited praise from Q, Mojo and NME) as well as the 20-strong Second Hand Marching Band and of course the band to whom the town gave their name: Aberfeldy.

Somewhere To Jump From and tickets for the festival, priced £22.50, are available from the bookshop counter, or ring us on 01887 822896
