Eastbourne Lammas Festival

28-29 July


The 2012 Eastbourne Lammas Festival takes place next weekend,
28-29 July at the Western Lawns, Eastbourne Seafront

As usual it?s a free event with collections being made in aid of the R.N.L.I.

Over the 2 days we have a variety of music from the bands on the main stage and Morris dance displays, the highlights of the weekend are the seafront procession, the drumming, the open air ceilidh and the ritual celebration of Lammas, the time of the cutting of the first corn crop . And when not watching the music and dance there are variety of stalls, crafts, storytelling and demonstrations on the festival site + a beer tent and food stalls to keep the festival crowd busy
We look forward to seeing you all at this year?s Festival ? come as you are, or wear your most outlandish costume and join the procession along the seafront midday Saturday; the more the merrier!

Mrs Yarringtons Music Club
Senlac Inn Battle

Tuesday 31st July  8pm
Aynsley Lister

To finish the season sees a rare solo acoustic gig by Aynsley Lister. Regarded as one of the UK?s finest proponents of rocking blues, this is a rare chance to see Aynsley Lister up close and personal in a stripped down, intimate setting. Don?t be fooled into thinking solo means ?limited and plodding?; his solo performances are the perfect platform to witness his amazing ability to sync rhythmical chords, bass lines and stinging lead guitar whilst singing and accompanying it all with his custom-built stomp box!

After live sessions for BBC Radio 2?s Bob Harris and Paul Jones and performances alongside the likes of Buddy Guy, John Mayall and Robert Cray, Aynsley became the only British artist to be featured in Classic Rock?s Top 10 Contemporary Blues Rock Artists. Expect an evening of finely crafted songs performed with a passion and conviction that will have you hooked from the very first chord.


There are a limited number of tickets left which are ?12 for non-members which we strongly recommend to book in advance.  -
