Unamplifire Festival
Please note: Info provided by the Event Organiser
Unamplifire is The Nest Collective’s one day festival celebrating roots and folk music, with unamplified performances running non-stop across different stages.
This November we return to the wonderful St Mark’s Church in Dalston. Wander from room to room in these beautiful church halls with music happening all around you.
At the Nest Collective, we have always felt that the experience at our shows where there are no microphones has been the most intimate and special, so we decided to create an entire festival around this. No amplification, no sound checks, no waiting for bands to plug in; just pure continuous music over multiple areas & stages.
Wine, craft beer and cider (please do not Bring Your Own). Delicious freshly-prepared food.
Lineup includes:
Peggy Seeger and Calum MacColl – Iconic folk singer, songmaker and activist… the undisputed queen of folk and political song
Ana Silvera – Beguiling singer-songwriter with stunning, magical storytelling
Hannah Read – Versatile fiddle player, songwriter and composer widely recognised on the international stage
Dan Owen – Honest and soulful, songs built for being howled back in festival fields
Baque Luar – Roof-raising, all female Afro-Brazilian vocal and percussion collective
Patch & the Giant – Dynamic indie-folk quintet, a genuine force in the UK alt-folk scene
