Duncan McFarlane & Friends (Acoustic)
Award winning Duncan McFarlane and his friends offer up their acoustic fare, playing an entertaining blend of progressive self-penned, Contemporary and Traditional songs utilising guitar and a variety of other instruments. Expect style, panache and lashings of good humour!
For over twenty years he has graced many a Festival Main Stage from Shrewsbury to Sidmouth, from Otley to Ely, from Costa del Folk Spain, to Denmark!
Duncan will be accompanied by multi instrumentalist Steve Foster (from the DMcF Band) and any number of other friends that he can rope in for the occasion.
”Top lad that Duncan McFarlane, a great bandleader who brings so much pleasure and fun to so many, many people. He writes some great original material and I love his lively versions of traditional folk song. Do go and see him because he’s absolutely terrific, whether he’s doing his acoustic set, or doing the folk-rock set with his full band, he’s a favourite at festivals all over England and beyond” – Mike Harding
”Duncan has an obvious feel for the tradition and a deep-rooted belief that it has a place in the current folk scene, aspects which he puts across with lively showmanship. His own songs show a canny grasp of, and response to, the tradition, while his intrinsic seriousness of intent and approach is often laced with a healthy irreverence that happens to be hugely entertaining.” – The Living Tradition
There is no licenced bar at these events but you are welcome to bring your own nibbles and refreshments, alcohol is fine.
