Folkeast 15Th, 16Th and 17Th August Glemham Hall, Suffolk 2014 PROGRAMME FolkEast 15th, 16th and 17th August Glemham Hall, Suffolk 2014 PROGRAMME Eccentric, eclectic and essentially Suffolk A WORD FROM OUR PATRONS: We are extremely happy and proud to have been asked to be patrons of FolkEast. The fact that they chose us is only proof that the organisational team are obviously remarkably savvy and intelligent people, and that the festival is in very safe hands. I'll let you make your own minds up as to whether that was tongue-in-cheek or whether we are just massively egotistical. But we are truly thrilled to be patrons, and we're looking forward to debuting various new and exciting projects and performances at the festival over the years.” David Eagle, Michael Hughes and Sean Cooney We are proud to announce, Teeside-based, The Young’uns as our first-ever patrons of FolkEast and we are even more delighted (and relieved) that they accepted after Becky threw coffee at them (accidentally) before they took to the stage at the Cromer Folk Festival (sorry). Celebrating 10 years performing together, Sean, Michael and David have gained a reputation as being one of the most entertaining live acts on the folk scene and have released four albums, the most recent being the thoughtful, “Never Forget”. We look forward to their involvement in FolkEast for years to come, working with us to inspire , as only they can, young people to engage with folk as a living tradition . We will all look forward to them performing an annual Patrons set for FolkEast. Welcome aboard!

FolkEast Productions Ltd Reg.Co.No: 8250902 VAT No: 1534653 13 WELCOME TO FOLKEAST FolkEast Welcome to FolkEast 2014, and what we hope will be another memorable and glorious three days here on the Glemham Hall Estate. Once again, we have put together a fantastic mix of music, dance, artists and crafts people to show off the incredible mix of talent from the local area, as well as some of the most respected musicians and artists playing the folk scene today. In a poll conducted by The East Anglian Daily Times and BBC Radio Suffolk, FolkEast was voted as one of the 50 ‘must do’ things in Suffolk this summer, and we are proud to have been chosen as one of the friendliest festivals around. We hope that those of you who came last year will notice some improvements. This is as a direct result of the feedback forms that many of you completed, which were extremely useful in highlighting the areas that needed work on. We appreciate your thoughts. This year we have started to move more towards the concept of “localism”, by sourcing much of the event infrastructure from the area, with nearly 95% of the equipment on site, from Fencing to Sound and Lighting, being sourced from companies in East Anglia. This supports the local economy and helps us in the process of working towards becoming environmentally friendly and so being awarded our carbon charter. We hope you have a wonderful weekend. Enjoy the music, food and good company and experience the genuine warmth of a Suffolk welcome. John and Becky WELCOME TO GLEMHAM HALL May we offer you a very warm welcome to the Glemham Hall Estate! We are absolutely thrilled and delighted that the FolkEast Festival has firmly established Glemham Hall as its home and in turn, as our flagship event of the year! Once again we look forward to seeing the parkland filled with music, energy, colour, lights and culinary whiffs creating a wonderful festival vibe to delight the senses! In the space of a single year, we’ve seen this magnificent Suffolk Festival grow and grow, with twists and turns, to offer you something unique and extraordinary. Our Estate is very special to us and we’d be delighted if, for one weekend of every year, you’ll make it your ‘home’ too. We’re in a beautiful part of Suffolk and we’re immensely proud to be part of a festival that entertains the young folk as well as the old folk! We’re particularly looking forward to the eclectic mix of music and dancing together with the newly established ‘The Imagined Suffolk Food Village’ and we’ll certainly be sampling a pint or two of the Cobbold Festival Ale – do try some! The Glemham Oak looks glorious once again, draped in all its pink and gold finery and we thank FolkEast and the sponsors for their dedication in continuing the tradition for another year. With all the experiences that have been thoughtfully pieced together for you this year, we’re sure you’ll be spoilt for choice! We hope you have a wonderful weekend with FolkEast at Glemham Hall. Do come and see us again next year!

The setting couldn’t be more perfect as the stage nestles in the natural amphitheatre formed by the slope of the land and when the sun shines and the skies are clear, there is no better place to be on site. When the sun goes down, the Sunset Stage comes into its own… Treading the steel deck will be some of the most established names in folk such as, Bellowhead, Fay Hield, Gigspanner, and Blowzabella alongside new and up-coming artists to complete a stunning Sunset line-up. FolkEast are particularly proud to provide a platform for False Lights to headline as their first live performance and look forward to many more exciting collaborations in the years to come. Comperes over the weekend across Sunset and Broad Roots stages: Stephen Foster from BBC Radio Suffolk Terry Walden from The Milkmaid Club Roger Pettit from Felixstowe Radio Sue Marchant from BBC Radio Cambridge SUNSET LINEUP FRIDAY 15.45 – 16.30 RUM KELTER 17.00 – 17.45 HATFUL OF RAIN 18.15 – 19.00 THE RAILS 19.30 – 20.30 BLOWZABELLA 21.30 – 23.00 BELLOWHEAD SATURDAY 13.15 – 14.00 THE BROADSIDE BOYS 14.30 – 15.15 THE WILLOWS 15.45 – 16.30 HACKNEY COLLIERY BAND 17.00 – 18.00 LISA KNAPP 18.30 – 19.30 FAY HIELD & THE HURRICANE PARTY 20.00 – 21.00 PETER KNIGHT’S GIGSPANNER 21.30 – 23.00 BLACKBEARD’S TEA PARTY SUNDAY 12.30 – 13.15 PaX-4 13.30 – 14.10 TILLY DALGLISH 14.30 – 15.15 THE JOHN WARD BAND 15.45 – 16.45 O’HOOLEY & TIDOW 17.10 – 18.00 MISHAPED PEARLS 18.25 – 19.25 THE WILL POUND BAND 19.55 – 20.55 KESTON COBBLERS’ CLUB 21.50 – 23.00 FALSE LIGHTS SUNSET BELLOWHEAD Friday 21.30 to 23.00 Friday’s headliners - the “big-band” of folk at the cutting edge of the contem- porary music scene, return in triumph to FolkEast. Bellowhead’s unique sound, fusing folk, funk, rock, jazz, music hall and classical music has won them widespread plaudits and acclaim and their stop off in Suffolk is part of a major tour taking in festivals and venues across the land. The unique 11-piece, described by the Independent as, “The Best Live Act in the Country” have a sound that’s not to be missed and this year they have an amazing and much-praised new album, Revival, under their belts too.

    “I am one of the last of a small tribe of troubadours who still believe that life is a beautiful and exciting journey with a purpose and grace well worth singing about.” E Y Harburg Purpose + Grace started as a list of songs and a list of possible guests. It is a wide mixture of material, from a traditional song I first heard 50 years ago, other songs that have been with me for decades, waiting to be arranged, to new original songs. You stand in a long line when you perform songs like this, you honour the ancestors, but hopefully the songs become, if only briefly your own, or a part of you. To call on my friends and peers to make this recording has been a great pleasure. Turning the two lists into a coherent whole was joyous. On previous recordings I’ve invited guest musicians to play their instruments, here, I asked singers for their unique contributions to these songs. Accompanying song has always been my favourite occupation, so it made perfect sense to have vocal and instrumental collaborations. In 1976 I had just released my first album and had been picked up by a heavy, old school music business manager whose avowed intent was to make me a star. I was not averse to the concept, and went straight from small folk clubs to opening shows for Steeleye Span at the biggest halls in the country. Early the next year June Tabor asked me if I would accompany her on tour. I was ecstatic and duly reported to my manager, who told me I was a star and didn’t play for other people.

Out of this came the suggestion that we should go on a local Organ A Legend Tchaikovsky Prayer Walk – everyone agreed it was a good idea. St Paul reminds us that we are to “pray without ceasing”, and since walking is something we do Prelude Dicks daily, surely part of praying without ceasing is praying while walking.

  • Representation Through Music in a Non-Parliamentary Nation
    MEDIANZ ! VOL 15, NO 1 ! 2015 DOI: 10.11157/medianz-vol15iss1id8 - ARTICLE - Re-Establishing Britishness / Englishness: Representation Through Music in a non-Parliamentary Nation Robert Burns Abstract The absence of a contemporary English identity distinct from right wing political elements has reinforced negative and apathetic perceptions of English folk culture and tradition among populist media. Negative perceptions such as these have to some extent been countered by the emergence of a post–progressive rock–orientated English folk–protest style that has enabled new folk music fusions to establish themselves in a populist performance medium that attracts a new folk audience. In this way, English politicised folk music has facilitated an English cultural identity that is distinct from negative social and political connotations. A significant contemporary national identity for British folk music in general therefore can be found in contemporary English folk as it is presented in a homogenous mix of popular and world music styles, despite a struggle both for and against European identity as the United Kingdom debates ‘Brexit’, the current term for its possible departure from the EU. My mother was half English and I'm half English too I'm a great big bundle of culture tied up in the red, white and blue (Billy Bragg and the Blokes 2002). When the singer and songwriter, Billy Bragg wrote the above song, England, Half English, a friend asked him whether he was being ironic. He replied ‘Do you know what, I’m not’, a statement which shocked his friends. Bragg is a social commentator, political activist and staunch socialist who is proudly English and an outspoken anti–racist, which his opponents may see as arguably diametrically opposed combination.
