‘The Best Gig on the North Sea with an Extra Fringe’

The twelfth ‘Folk on the Pier’ event in Cromer promises a new development when over a dozen top class buskers and street entertainers from the Cambridge area hit the town over the Saturday and Sunday of the festival. In tandem with the usual free fringe events programmed for the pubs, cafes and hotels, the streets of the town and the pier will hum to the sound of mainly acoustic instruments. Visitors can also expect to see the odd living statue, escapologist and even an African drumming troupe.

Meanwhile the main stage at the Pavilion Theatre is once again offering another high quality programme of top players from the world of folk, acoustic and electric folk-rock from Friday 7th to Sunday 9th May.

A new double CD set is being launched at the event which has been created by festival director Scott Butler to help raise funds towards the ever increasing festival costs. Thirty artists have contributed free tracks to the album and many are playing at the theatre and in town over the weekend. The 2CD set entitled ’The Best Gig on the North Sea’  features over two and half hours of acoustic and electric material and will retail during the festival at ten pounds.

Tickets for the Pavilion concerts are fairly low but there are still some available at the time of going to press.

Best wishes,

Scott Butler
