Beverley Folk festival had a PRE festival line up at Fruit Space‚  in Hull down Humber Street last night and we went down to take a look. We actually ended up catching some footage and doing an unplanned live stream with the delight of some quick texting to family and friends at home from the audience !

The nights line up consisted of:

  • Sea Fret
  • Blackbeard’s Tea Party
  • Circus Envy

Fruit was a not to far off a‚  full house with most seated and had a great buzz with the bands playing who made it quite clear they enjoyed playing music to a crowd.

Chris Wade the director of Beverley Folk, Acoustic Roots Festival for 17th-19th June 2011 explains a bit more about the nights events in the video.

More video available on request.
