Knockengorroch: World Ceilidh 2008

Three days of Knockengorroch will normally leave all festival goers feeling a wee bit tender once it's all over, but this year's World Ceilidh was four days long and (for the first time since we started going) it was sunny and warm. Anyone who wasn't there should have been - unfortunately there are no valid excuses folks, no - there's none.

But don't worry, as ever the Garden Sessions have produced a report on the event - released as part of episode 61 of the show. All the best bits and best tunes for those who weren't there and to help those nursing themselves out of the post festival blues...

It's still another 3 and a half months to go till the next Knockengorroch, but rest assured - the Garden Sessions will be there. And thus far we can tell you that amongst the many acts appearing at 'The Hairth 2008' will be Kathryn Tickell, Chumba Wumba, Rory McLeod, Jock Tamson's Bairns, Jacob's Pillow and more.
