Purton House Organics will once again be welcoming music lovers to their home grown ‘Festival on the Farm’ next weekend.
The family friendly event has everything you’d expect at a Festival but on a smaller, local scale.
With great bands, craft stalls, children’s activities and delicious local food all weekend. Visitors are welcome to camp in the adjoining field to get the real chill-out festival experience or head home at the end of the day to enjoy their own home comforts.
The team from Riffs Bar have put together a strong lineup, with headliners The Go Go Five, an explosive mix of Motown, 60’s Soul, Jazz, Rock and Blues.
Founding band member, Ivan Chandler, used to play keyboards for Dusty Springfield and they pride themselves on the calibre of guest artists who regularly perform with them.
Supporting will be young band Magician’s Nephew who recently appeared on TV’s The Voice and have just released their third album since playing at the festival in 2017.
Friday Night sees the return of popular local band Binomial who are sure to get everyone rocking along to hits of the 80s.
This year the lineup also includes comedy acts Alan Francis, past winner of Channel 4’s So You Think You’re Funny Award and El Baldinho Comedy and Magic which should go down well with the kids on Saturday afternoon
Event organiser and farmer Rowie Meers says “as an organic farm in need of diversification, we have been ‘growing’ the Festival over the last few years! This year we have pulled out all the stops with some fantastic bands, local food and activities”
