Music 2010

Mik Artistik

Mik Artistik's Ego Trip is a strange and beautiful beast of a band comprising Mik Artistik on preposterous posturing and vocals (no grandad should be able to move like that!), Benson Walker – a big beaming lighthouse of rockabilly funkiness – on bass and vocals, and the boney sonic dabbler Johnny Flockton on guitar.

This Devon-based band dishes up a rousing selection of jazz and swing classics. Famed across the Westcountry for their popular 1940s theme nights and playing the on-stage role of the Glen Miller Orchestra in the world premier of Little Brown Jug at the Northcott Theatre in Exeter. They're celebrating their 25th anniversary in swinging style at Port Eliot this year.

Black Friday

Black Friday is a high-energy Celtic folk band from our very own St Germans. With a fine mix of original songs, traditional Irish jigs, reels, and cover versions, their influences are as diverse as Johnny Cash, The Clash, Flogging Molly and The Pogues. They’ve been rampaging the pubs, clubs and festivals of Devon, Cornwall and beyond for the last three years, playing over 100 gigs in 2006 alone. So loosen your clothes, grab yourself a cider (or three) and come join the party.

Back by popular demand after his incredible Nature Disco last year – a festival highlight for many – Chris is visiting Port Eliot this May to make a special recording of night falling over the Lynher Estuary and around Port Eliot's woods and gardens, which he will be incorporating into an exciting new Nature Disco for 2010.
