Nantwich Words & Music Festival
There’s lots happening here at Scrumptillious, the latest initiative being that we are supporting the Nantwich Words & Music Festival which takes place between the 7th and 10th of October.
There are some great gigs to look forward to with Radio 2′s Mark Radcliffe opening the show on Thursday evening at the Crown Hotel, reading excerpts from his new book and then playing with his band, The Big Figures.
On Friday night, the fabulous Fyfe Dangerfield (lead singer of The Guillemots and as a solo artist, the soundtrack to the recent – click on above link to see) plays a set, also at the Crown. Then on Saturday night, folk legend Martin Simpson plays at the Malbank Studio Theatre.
The weekend concludes with the wonderful Thea Gilmore playing at the Crown. In between there are all sorts of other events including poetry readings, events in the town square, “Acoustic Sunday” in Costa Coffee … watch this space!
I’m currently designing the festival website and Scrumptillious is sponsoring Mark Radcliffe’s gig on Thursday 7th, providing cupcakes for his book reading, entitled “Outtakes and Cupcakes”!
Tickets will be on sale very shortly – available from Grapevine in Pepper Street, as well as via the website when it’s up and running (I’ll post here once it is). Or you can contact us here at Scrumptillious.
