Festival Season

 

Just a quick update on what Glow Arts has been up to the past few weeks, Jennifer and the bands have been out and about at various festivals. The season started off at Hebridean Celtic Festival with RURA performing and Jennifer working for Creative Scotland. The RURA guys played a fantastic set and had a wee pint or two to celebrate.

Jennifer has been off working on a few gigs with the wonderful Kate Rusby at Gawsworth Hall, Cambridge Folk Festival, Sidmouth Folk Festival and we are off to Wickham Festival tomorrow.

Also performing at Wickham at the weekend is the wonderful Findlay Napier and the Bar Room Mountaineers before they hot foot it straight back to Scotland for Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival, Venus Flytrap Stage on Saturday evening. Lori Watson and Rule of Three are performing on Saturday afternoon at Wickham Festival.

Also in the middle of planning Glow Arts activity for next year so if your interested in booking any of the acts the diaries are now open so get in touch!

Summer News

Well Glow Arts artists are out and about over the next couple of months at various festivals and venues so we thought it would be a good idea to let you know where you can catch them.

RURA are appearing at Hebridean Celtic Festival on the 15th & 16th July, Howden Park in West Lothian on 22nd July, Speyfest on 29th-31st July and then off on a short tour of Italy.

Findlay Napier & the Bar Room Mountaineers not only have been drawing attention to themselves with wonderful reviews of the new album (see website for links) they will also be appearing at Wickham Festival on the 5th August before making a dash up the length of the country to appear at the now sold out Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival on Saturday 6th August.

Lori Watson & Rule of Three have just finished a tour of Austria and will also be appearing at Wickham Festival on Saturday 6th August.
