Bounty Hounds at Folk Festivals 2010

Well it’s getting very close to festival season for the Bounty Hounds now, with our first outing to the Rochester Sweeps Festival just over a week away! We’ve been keeping very busy throughout the Winter months playing lots of gigs and barn dances, learning new material and generally honing our skills. We’ve even managed to produce a CD with the help of Will at Sonorous Studios, Alpheton. That boy’s a genius btw! We’re hoping to have a limited number of these available to purchase at Rochester with more to come soon.

“Tales of the Land and Songs of the Sea” is an eleven track album containing the very best of the Bounty Hounds’ songs & tunes. We hope it will be enjoyed by many people as we trek off to festivals & gigs this Summer.

Talking of festivals, we are thrilled that our promotion work has paid off and has yielded several bookings at some choice folk festivals this year including Ely, Suffolk, Sellindge, Moira Furnace & Swanage - woo hoo! The Bounty Hounds on tour!! It’s gonna be great fun to reach new audiences and to enjoy travelling to such far-flung places.

If you’d prefer to catch us a bit closer to home, our gig listings should help and don’t forget the St John’s Street Fair in Bury St Edmunds on Saturday 19th June - a day of family entertainment in this beautiful, independent shopping street, with Samboomba samba band, Benson Blake’s BBQ, live music, fairground rides and much, much more!!!

Look forward to seeing you there!
