Homemade Towersey Festival 2020
This event has been and gone.
Towersey Festival is about music, dance, workshops and that unique community spirit. It’s about friends and family getting together and creating memories.
This August they want to help you hold a mini 'home-made' Towersey Festival and are supporting this with a day of music, dance, workshops and much more to keep the spirit alive for 2020.
All the activities will be FREE (excluding materials for workshops) but they ask, where you can, to check out the new Crowdfunder at www.crowdfunder.co.uk/towersey-festival and pledge for a ‘virtual ticket’ or one of many exclusive rewards to help support the Festival and the artists involved.
Please note: All live stream events are subject to change. Not all events listed are live performances by the artist - they also include archived concerts, DJ sets, masterclasses, Q&As and more.

Kate Rusby
A remarkable interpretive singer, Kate Rusby's soulful vocals resonate with the wistful beauty of an earthbound angel. The crossover appeal Kate enjoys is unprecedented for a folk singer and has been achieved without resort to compromise. The defining voice of contemporary English Folk music, Kate Rusby's exquisite interpretations of traditional songs and finely wrought self-penned tunes have won her an audience that reaches beyond the genre. Rusby's wondrous singing and her hugely engaging Yorkshire wit ensure that audiences will be treated to a truly remarkable and uplifting concert experience.

Damien O'Kane
Steeped in music, Damien O’Kane grew up in Coleraine, Northern Ireland, with a deep respect and understanding of the folk tradition, yet which also forged a healthy appetite to explore its broadest borders and test its boundaries. He’s a singer. A very good one, too, with a relaxed, assured vocal style that exudes a natural warmth and empathy with the colourful characters who occupy his songs.
