Local girl Emily Dickinson has shared some kind words and great photos with us....

"Hello - I'm Emily Dickinson, I'm 16 and I'm local.

I come down to the music festival every year and I love it! It's really enjoyable, in fact so enjoyable that my parents' friends come down from the North every year.

I've recently got interested in photography, so this year I went around to different performances and took a few snaps which I thought you might like to see, and I do have a few more...

Thank you!"

And thank YOU, Emily!  Good luck with the photography - the photos are great.

It is so rewarding and heartwarming when artists and visitors give us feedback on their experience at our wonderful Festival...

...so if you played - or visited - here this year please let us know - we'd love to hear from you.

Dart Music Festival - more...

More lovely feedback...

 

Chris from Slapface and the Hoagies says:

 

"Thank you once again for inviting us to play at the music festival.

 

I'm now sitting back at my desk wishing I was still there!

 

We had a great time and I must applaud you all for your hospitality and for having such a well organised festival. 

 

 

The weather was on your side, but the rest of it you did on your own. The whole atmosphere was terrific. Very relaxed and chilled."

And this lovely comment from Mama Tokus:

"Hi Hilary and the team

I just wanted to say a big thank you for booking me to play at the Dart Music Festival.

I had a ball, loved meeting some great audience members and really enjoyed the venues where I played.

 

 

Everyone was so helpful and I do hope you're getting a chance to rest up after your sun-drenched triumph!

Visitors really appreciated your efforts, let me tell you. I was really proud to be involved. Hoorah!"

More feedback from happy festival-goers and artists - please keep them coming...

 

"Wow! What a gig Sunday night, place was buzzing. Great festival as always - iit was a cracking gig. Many thanks and congratulations on another triumph!" - Chris, Big Foot

 

 

"What a fantastic Festival! The weather obviously helped, but the whole weekend was magical, thank you. I was born and bred in Dartmouth and I feel very proud when I see what a wonderful music festival my small home town can put on. It is way better that my local Bath one, where most of the events are ticket only and high price at that.

From the sheer brilliance of Ji Lui on the piano to the energetic De Fuego and then the informal Harry Brown in the magnificent appropriate setting of the Castle Tea Rooms. the variety was amazing and it was often difficult to choose what to go to!

I hope that you raised enough money to carry on the great work next year and many congratulations to all the team of organisers and helpers." - J.T.

 

"This is just to say thank you. Me and the Torbay Folk Choir had a lovely time singing at the festival. Lovely programme, lovely staff, lovely audience..." - Rebecka, Torbay Folk Choir

 

Thank you!

First Raitt Band

Our thanks to the First Raitt Band for entertaining us so well. Seems like they enjoyed playing here too...

"Just wanted to say a huge 'thank you' for having the band at the Windjammer this year.  We cannot tell you what a fantastic evening we had, despite the real stress over the non-arrival of our bass man who was stuck on the M5.  We managed to turn it round and give the audience some additional time.

The boys were blown away by the whole weekend, and the highlight for me was seeing the young Kezia at Bayards Fort, just so refreshing to hear such an amazing voice and lyrics from one so young - amazing talent.  The weather was perfect, people so friendly and generally a great feel good feel to the whole weekend.

Well done to all your team, you must have been so pleased with how it all went.  Bear us in mind for next year, we would be more than up for it!!!!!  Got some nice gig leads from around the area, so a mini tour may beckon next spring.....

Best wishes from all the Bristol crowd"

Caroline, First Raitt Band

Says it all, doesn't it..? Thanks to Caroline for the kind words - see you again soon.
