Peatbog Faeries who were at last year's Folk Festival and (who incidentally sold the most CD's on the Festival stall) are going to be in Cambridge again this year but at a different festival...
Heart Of The World Festival, a month long city wide celebration of culture and music from around the world, will be in Cambridge in May with an array of events (many of which are FREE) including Live Music, Workshops, Talks, Club Nights, Exhibitions, Theatre, Performances and Film.
Alongside the Peatbog Faeries, there are other acts including Warsaw Village Band, Jackie Leven, Baka Beyond, Yann Tiersen and much more.

About Me
- The Co-operative Cambridge Folk Festival
- The Cambridge Folk Festival is one of the premier music events in Europe and one of the longest running and most famous folk festivals in the world. It has become hugely popular and a regular sell out attracting ten thousand people, many of whom return year after year. The Festival is renowned for its eclectic mix of music and a wide definition of what might be considered folk. The best traditional folk artists from the UK and Ireland rub shoulders with more contemporary acts, the finest American country, blues and roots artists, acclaimed singer songwriters and even the odd pop star. Bluegrass, gospel, cajun, zydeco, jazz, world, klezmer and a ceilidh are also regular features. The line up has reflected the many changes in the music scene from the 60s to the present and is always a hotbed mix of the old and the new. The list of performers who have appeared reads like a who’s who and the Festival has been a launching pad for many now well known artists.
