Our ever-popular Blues Afternoons are back for 2022.

Born and bred in Mississippi, Lisa Mills opens the afternoon mixing Southern charm and roots country blues and gospel into her distinctive solo guitar and vocal style.

The Cinelli Brothers share a common passion for the electric Chicago and Texas blues from the 60s and 70s, showcasing original repertoire in the style of Chess, Stax and Motown.

Closing the afternoon, festival favourite Nashville’s own Stacy Mitchhart delivers feel-good music that cuts across soul country and rock and always leaves audiences wanting more.
