Winter Solstice 2022 - Wednesday 21st December
OPENING TIMES:
15:00 - 23:00
We’re inviting you to come and share the longest night of the calendar with us here at Fire Pit. It will be an evening of good hearty food, wellbeing, educational Winter Solstice kids trails, all set under the beautiful open starry sky illuminated by a large bonfire with extra camping fires to keep you toasty.
We’re very excited to welcome Wild Paths to camp for the very first time. We have worked closely with them to curate a lineup of local musicians who will set the scene throughout the evening.
A LINE UP so wonderful it welcomes the light and dancing and we're not sure there is a better feeling of stood with the skies, listening to live performance with other folk....
We welcome
Ben Auld
Ben Auld writes songs whose heartbreak and wonder reveal themselves moments after the warmth of their beauty sinks in, like slipping into the ocean on a bronzy morning. Whether he’s singing about bookstores and porches or ghosts and space stations, the Bristol, UK-based singer-songwriter imbues his straight-to-tape gems with a radiant AM pop warmth. And on Lemongrass, due via Earth Libraries, that comfy songwriting crackles and pops somewhere between Roger McGuinn and Gram Parsons. Auld’s debut record brims with homespun charm, dazzling melodies, and lyrics that burrow deep into the heart.
i.am.afiya
i.am.afiya is a South London based singer/songwriter and self-taught instrumentalist, playing both guitar and piano. Her music is genre bending, inspired by her own love of music across all genres. Some of her biggest influences include King Krule, Lianne La Havas and Hiatus Kaiyote to name a few.
Sam Eagle
Sam Eagle, is a songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist from the coast of Essex. Fresh from releasing two critically acclaimed EPs, Sam cites an eclectic range of artists as influences such as David Byrne, Radiohead, Thundercat, Nick Hakim and Kendrick Lamar. However, Sam doesn’t endeavour to replicate these artists musically but credits their inspiration in terms of approach and their attitude to experimentation and composition. The result is an artist with a collection of songs that are powerfully imaginative, honest, and most importantly impossible to pigeonhole.
In the Warehouse we will be serving mulled wines and festive hot drinks alongside a fantastic selection of boozy and non alcoholic options. Please get in touch if you want to book yourself a table for you and your family to enjoy some woodfired pizza.
