FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHT
Kormac's Big Band
plus The Boudoir Boys
This year's unique highlight, fresh from the circuit and spotted at The Electric Picnic... Kormac's Big Band, a 12 piece band which is a mix of barber shop, brass band and DJ mixing, with film thrown in, it promisies to be a very special occasion! Kormac has played all over the world, from South Africa to the Ukraine, and with everyone from Mr Scruff to Grandmaster Flash, a blend of genre-bending dance floor sets, this is the night to get those dancing shoes on. The unique performance/music/film/DJ show lasts one hour, and will start at 10pm sharp, so don't miss it! (see www.djkormac.com for more info).
Supported by The Boudoir Boys playing upbeat music from the 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s plus The Amazing Magic Lantern Picture Show showing quirky vintage film.
Feel free to come in Fancy Dress for the evening; Vintage or Cabaret!
