A special open mic edition of Nest’s popular acoustic night is taking place as part of this year’s Crosspool Festival.
It’s your chance to play a couple of songs, unplugged and with no microphone, to a friendly Crosspool Festival crowd – or just turn up and watch!
To finish the evening there will be a special set of folk and originals from acoustic night favourites The Finch Charmers.
Last year’s well dressing helpers are being asked to check their garages and garden huts as we are not sure where they were stored after the 2017 festival.
