Event Info

At Stoke Park, Guildford
Sunday, 12 July 2009

Expect a weekend of live musical entertainment coupled with comedy, children's entertainment, street theatre, a theatre tent, art/craft exhibitions, and caterers from around the world providing a variety of meals in a truly festive atmosphere. Other festival attractions include the incredibly popular Farmer Giles' Barn Dance, superb cocktail bars and, as usual, the massive 150 foot long bar means nobody has to wait very long for refreshment! The kids are well catered for too, with the KidZone being by far the best to date with loads of fun, games, theatre and activities, not to mention the face painting!

The Cordels

The Cordels

The Cordels' first single, Dance in Time, sees the twentysomething Warrington three-piece digging deep for their lyrical themes whilst deftly crafting an anthemic, indie-pop classic. An early demo of the track found its way to top producer, Jim Lowe, who immediately offered his mixing skills to polish it into the gem it is now. With a songwriting dexterity and musical prowess that belie their years, The Cordels have won airplay in some well-respected quarters. Radio 1's Zane Lowe gives early support, as does Tom Robinson for BBC 6 Music and Loz Guest at Kerrang Radio. After only three months in the current line-up The Cordels are drawing comparisons with the early days of that other classic three-piece, The Police, with each band member bringing a simmering passion and an effortless cool that explode into a frenetic, self-assured live performance. Dance in Time is a fan favourite and questions how free we really are living in the affluent West and how much we're constrained by social pressure, work, money and debt.
