A great way to round off the summer with an afternoon of live music including performances from some of Walsall’s best live acts as well as leading national names. 


The ever popular Alex Fawson will be kicking off proceedings as well as hosting the day. The afternoon also sees a performance from local legend Martin Breedon who will be bringing his band the Rustlers to enliven The Garden Stage.  Fresh from her storming performance at the Arboretum in August as vocalist for  Funk and Disorderly,  Gemma Niles will be returning to the garden heading up her own band Katsu Cassettes.


Heading up the the M6 from Birmingham singer song writer, Jack Cattell will be taking the stage later on in the afternoon, for a rare Walsall  performance, showcasing music from his new EP, Locked Away.  https://jackcattellmusic.bandcamp.com/


Heading up the bill, we are very proud to have the return of the amazing songsmith, story teller and all round national treasure Ash Mandrake, who will be sharing his own unique brand of psychedelic folk. https://ashmandrake.bandcamp.com
