TOTNES FESTIVAL :-)

Having honed my festivalizing skills at the Green Gathering (folk music in the Permaculture tent) I'm very excited about the approaching Totnes Festival - lots of music, theatre, a fun fair, and general good times spread across the town's varied venues. 

"Recording for Soundart Radio at the Totnes festival has been a total blast- this years' programming has been better than ever- well done to all the venues and to the organizers- and thanks for the opportunity to record, and interview, and participate on behalf of Soundart Radio!! My personal highlights this year : Jared and Isaac's Festie Morning Breakfast Show- great, funny wake up radio with grand toons and interesting guests, the Traditional Singing session at the Bay Horse Inn- amazing voices, historic and heartfelt songs and lots of chorus/ carousing, and also Soundart Radio's Summer Club- the kids getting confident in the studio and interviewing performers and real journalists-  Karen form the Totnes Times, Holly Ebony, Jon Eliott, and Lona and Eli did so well with questions such as "How many leopards can you wrestle?", and Wille and The Bandits gave me a great interview and much aural delight at The Barrel House with their top roots rock ... and it isn't even over!!!!! Tonight I'm recording the Night Paddle on the Dart with Spindle Wayfarer, tomorrow there is the lantern procession's Autumn Night's Dream at the Leechwell Gardens, and Sunday, the festival finish party with Wilfredo!!!! One membership to Soundart Radio + some training in basic recording technique + some free editing software (Audacity) + a community festival full of interest, events, and great characters = brilliant fun :-)"
