AUDIOSTAGE FESTIVAL

Sat 5 August

The Pomfret Arms

Another gloriously sunny day saw another stellar lineup of original local music at the Pomfret Arms, for the pubs second all dayer of the summer following Twinfest. This time for the Audiostage Festival, headed by Marcus Still, who records and shoots the Audiostage podcast in the purpose-adapted barn at the back. Due to weather, the festival was able to take place outside on the garden stage. The solid lineup included The Vincent Vega Band, Empyre, Jono and the Uke Dealers, Kenneth J Nash, Brazen Foxes, Little Boy and L30 Robinson. Empyre wowed audiences with a stripped back, dynamic acoustic set of their usually heavier rock numbers, whilst later on the evening L30 Robinson had the whole barn dancing late into the evening with his fresh beats and crisp lyrics. It was a chilled afternoon and a nice opportunity to catch up with some familiar faces such as Ken, and Tom Rose, this time without his heathen orchestra.
