Sarah Jarosz

Wednesday 30 May 8.00pm.

Sarah Jarosz

Multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Sarah Jarosz made a name for herself as a bluegrass prodigy, releasing her debut album in 2009 at the age of 18.   GRAMMY and Americana Music Award nominations, a trio of Austin Music Awards and invitations to perform on television quickly followed.

She remains one of the most exciting young voices in folk music. Her approach to acoustic music is expansive and vital; she sees no need to choose between old-timey and modern material; between picking, singing and writing; between experimenting and reviving tradition. She does all of it, and then some.

Jamie Smith’s Mabon - Ponty’s Big Weekend Fringe Event

Thursday 19 Julu 8.00pm.

Award–winning, stunning, joyous and vibrant - Celtic music without borders - Jamie Smith’s Mabon (JSM) is an essential and heady treat, currently seen by audiences and critics alike as one of Britain’s fastest rising must see roots acts.

JSM’s music is self-styled, singular and toe-tappingly good – an irresistible blend of world music, Celtic roots and rabble-rousing funk folk, filled with energy, joy and passion. Jamie Smith’s prolific and imaginative compositions take you on a magical whistle-stop Euro tour, with jigs and reels jostling for space alongside other dance-related forms in an exuberant, feel-good show.


JSM delivers a spirited, sublimely executed performance –coaxing the audience down a corkscrew path of contrasting emotions that leaves them breathless and bewitched.

So stand by for infectious, energising, life affirming music in spades.

“Absolutely stunning- they should be headlining all the major festivals!”    Mick Peat, BBC Midlands Folkwaves
