Benoit Viellefon & son Orchestre Benoit Viellefon & His Orchestra:
1920’s to 1950’s swing, French musette, early Cuban, Russian gypsy, New Orleans, Charleston.)

(Crooner extraordinaire, Benoit Viellefon is the next singing sensation from France.   His lustrous and warm vocal quality will inevitably draw you to his music, both French and jazz.   As a self accompanied and refined guitarist, Benoit will weave a tapestry of sultry sounds round you and carry you off into the velvet, dreamy evening...    Come spend a romantic time, solo or ensemble , and let the dulcet tones and intricate guitar work of M. Viellefon escort you down the Parisian lanes of nostalgia...ooh la la! More info...

Specialising in ska & reggae with a dash of soul, funk, R&B and world roots, The Trojans have been touring since 1982, mainly in Japan, Europe, and do lots of one-off special shows at festivals, clubs, bars and private parties being popular with the young and old and people of all cultures to suit our multicultural day and age.

Bravo BravoFimber Bravo / Kadialy Kouyate:
(Afro-carribean world music)

"Fimber Bravo and young Senegalese kora player Kadialy Kouyate found a common thread, and proceeded to weave it into a tapestry of multi-hued beauty..It really worked those two instruments (the steel pan and kora) coming together."
Andy Kershaw BBC Radio 3

Railroad Bill:
(Skiffle music)

Railroad Bill play raw, fast, gutsy skiffle music on the simplest of instruments - washboard, tea chest bass, guitar and mandolin. With an act that has been honed on the streets and on the stages of the UK and abroad, they have been described as 'Lonnie Donegan on Speed' - and they're not talking dustmen here - the material is rooted in American Blues - songs of Gambling, Trains, Drinking and Prison - A sort of Sea Sick Steve meets the Ramones...
