Folking Around in Whitby

Alt-Folk for Alt Folk

We are returning to Whitby Folk week for our sophomore offering of alt-folk for Folk Week. We're gonna shake the coastline with high-octane performances and stellar songcrafting across two evenings to kick off the annual Whitby Folk Week. 

We will see the return of local favourites from last year, as well as plenty of new faces to the Whitby Folk scene.

Brian Stone returns with his seas shanty-style and inescapable dances and singalongs that get everyone nautically merry.

Jack Kendrick also returns alongside his band, the Broken Wonders, to deliver earworm melodies and folk-punk madness.

To complete the returnees from last year, Henshaw will also be coming back to Whitby, alongside his trusty bassist Wibbo, to bring singalongs and good times for all

Alongside the returnees we also have Harrison Rimmer, combining high energy rock with heart felt and reflective lyrics.

The Limewoods will be bringing their alternative take on trad folk, as the most pure embodiment of alt-folk around. Dancing and singing along will be mandatory, as they get everyone going with their take on folk tunes 'with a jig and a twist'.

Last but not least, Lincolnshire's Harry Medium; opening up this fantastic festival with his quirky humour and heartfelt songwriting.

Get your tickets today, and we'll see you up North as we're Folking Around at the Crafty Cove, brought to you by Yellowbelly Records!
