CW Stoneking joins Wilderness festival line-up as countdown beginsWith less than two weeks to go, Wilderness is pleased to announce that CW Stoneking, the Australian born calypso blues singer, has been added to this year’s line-up. CW Stoneking and his band, The Primitive Horn Orchestra, join a whole host of talent at the groundbreaking new festival of music, food, theatre, literary debate and outdoor pursuits. Being held at the spectacular setting of Cornbury Park in Oxfordshire on August 12-14, the new festival will be a weekend of freedom and inspiration for all free-spirited festival lovers. CW Stoneking released his album Jungle Blues in the UK and showed his love for old time-jazz and blues is beyond doubt. His recent London shows saw queues around the block and his last tour in Britain became a fast sell-out. Catch Stoneking at Wilderness Festival along with the finest names in music including Antony and the Johnsons, Mercury Rev, Laura Marling, Daniel Johnston, Gogol Bordello, The Low Anthem, Dry The River, Guillemots, Toots & The Maytals, Robyn Hitchcock, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and Hayseed Dixie.
Tickets start from £60 plus booking fee. Visit www.wildernessfestival.com for further information.
