The Days Events Flooring Options Stage About WrdeUp Starting as a celebration for the Junior Football Club (HTJFC) when winning the South West Community club of the year award, WrdeUp is actually five years old this year. Our first event in 2013 culminated with a Take That Tribute act headlining. This proved very popular and many people asked if it could be done again, so in 2014 a new festival “Higworts” took place with Kingsland Road from X-Factor as the headliners with an ABBA tribute act as support. Again with great weather and atmosphere at the 2014 event, it was suggested we should go again in 2015 and with a rebranding to “WrdeUp” (which will hopefully become Highworth’s very own music festival) we showcased both local acts, a tribute act who brought the music of Michael Jackson alive and our headliners Dr and The Medics. We have raised money for Wiltshire Air Ambulance, HTJFC, Severn Freewheelers and a number of local good causes, with acts such as The Great Pretender (Queen tribute), Dave Finnegan's Commitments and Los Palmas 6 (Madness Tribute) So why call it “Wrde Up”? Well Wrde was the very first recorded name for Highworth in 1086 and stayed until 1094 when it changed to Wortha. It then changed to Worde in 1155 for 3 years until Wurda, Wrda, Worthe and Wurthe were used from 1158 until 1241. 1241 brought about the first name similar to today which was Hauteworth. WrdeUp is a not for profit organisation and relies heavily on the support of the local community for funding via ticket sales and local business for sponsorship. As we move forward we aim for the Festival to continue to be a fun day for all the family giving local artists a chance to perform whilst at the same time giving a local organisations and charities opportunity to promote themselves and raise funds to help them develop and help others. WrdeUp is a Community Interest Company (CIC) which is a type of company, designed in particular for social enterprises that want to use their profits and assets for the public good. Our objectives are very simple, to create a fun family day out for the residents of Highworth and the community from the surrounding areas. Whilst helping our community develop and encouraging local performing arts, we also aim to give financial aid to local charities by providing a fund pot that can be applied for by 30th September each year.

  • Swedish Soul Funk Grooves - Patriks Soul/Funk Music
    Swedish soul funk grooves - Patriks soul/funk music http://www.soulfunkmusic.com/swedish.htm Swedish soul and funk 1979-2005 Sweden is best known for Abba that conquered the world in the late 70s with catchy disco influenced melodies. Even though the melodies are "eternal" in many respects Sweden got more to offer. In this introduction to Swedish soul and funk and jazz from 1979 to 1990, with a brief overview of the 90s as well, I will give you a short history and most of all my recommendations to you of the best rare Swedish soul and funk grooves! Music history Sweden got a rather limited amount of more prominent composers during the history. The most well known names during the period 1700-1800 are baroque composer Johan Helmich Roman and the troubadour Carl Michael Bellman. Between 1800 and 1900 Sweden had many names but no one reached higher levels of recognition outside Sweden. From 1900 until 1945 completely new genres got a foothold on Swedish soil and jazz became one of the most important ones. After the end of the second world war the jazz influences from USA got even stronger and during the following decades after 1945. Sweden have since the 50s produced outstanding jazz impressionists and vocalists that achieved much attention both in Sweden and on the American scene with names like vocalist Alice Babs, clarinetist Åke Hasselgård, that was one of the first to play bop, pianist Bengt Hallberg and altoist Arne Domnerus. Many of these played or sang with the greatest names in America.
