Formed way back when, the Gumbo Flyers were one
of the first bands in Europe to embrace the infectious Cajun and Zydeco
music of Louisiana.
This experienced group of musicians have toured worldwide - the Band’s high energy songs and stomps from the swamps have
thrilled audiences at festivals and music venues across the continent,
and their music has been embraced by radio stations back in Louisiana
itself.
With their raw talent, relaxed professionalism and playful interaction, a performance of the Gumbo Flyers is a treat for tapping feet.

| Holy Ebony & Band |
The Holly Ebony band consists of Holly on
vocals and guitar, Nick Marshall on lead and slide guitar, Conrad Singh
on Double Bass and Jake Renbourn on percussion.
Holly tells us:
"I'm a singer and songwriter pouring out song from my beautiful corner of the world on the edge of Dartmoor.
Inspired by folk, soul and blues, my music tells stories from the wilderness around me and the depths of my spirit."

| Hot Diggety |
Barn-rattlin', farmyard-shakin' Hot Diggety have been wowing audiences
in the South West with their own brand of Hillbilly Bop since the summer
of 2010.
The 8-piece band from Modbury, Devon, combine 4-part vocal
harmonies with cattle-stampeding rhythms in a set that mixes classic
western tub-thumpers with their own, unique take
on classic songs by the likes of Abba, Beyonce and Lady Gaga.
At festivals, music venues and private functions, Hot Diggety's infectious beats and great humour have had their audiences baying for more!

North Devon singer-songwriter Jenna is a free spirit with an
effortless natural talent, who has been writing songs from the age of 12. An
accomplished keyboards player and acoustic guitarist, she comes alive on stage with her infectious laugh and West Country humour – then startles people into silence with her amazingly mature voice, sass,
attitude and elegance, to deliver wonderfully melodic songs; inspired by
the sea, surf, love and life of the coast and beyond.

Jenna has toured with Steve Knightley (Show of Hands) as
well as performing at ‘Show Of Hands’ sell out concert at The Royal
Albert Hall. Jenna has also toured with Mercury prize nominee Seth
