We’ve invited some of our favourite musicians to join us for an intimate 500-capacity Fanny’s Meadow. Our merry throng will include independent stalls, crafts, food, curios and entertainment plus our nightly fireside jam. Our charming bar will serve locally brewed ales, ciders and cocktails as well as favourites like cold lager on tap, throw in a load of free children’s activities, fine sound engineers, and DJs to keep the grooves humming to perfection and we guarantee you will have a very special 4 day summer weekend.
We pride ourselves on putting musicians first, therefore we break all the festival rules and actually pay ALL programmed musicians.
We also hold with the philosophy of ‘doing not having’ so you’ll find plenty of interactive amusements for all the family. We’ve got craft, singing and swing dance workshops. A sauna, yoga sessions and sound healing. Independent food stands will serve up an array of delights and the star gazing is otherworldly under the uninterrupted skies of the Somerset Levels.
Any profits from this event go towards funding independent music projects so we ask you to eat and drink generously at our cafes and bars and think twice before bringing booze on site as our beverages are realistically priced.
Our Secret Somerset location is blooming under the care of its current equine residents.

Jazz-pop perfection somewhere between Joni Mitchell, Feist and St Vincent, Stevie Toddler’s playful bass lines and lulling vocal melodies float her gracefully to the top echelons of Bristol’s scene.
Bass player/ songwriter Stevie Toddler blends a spectrum of sound worlds that she's occupied as a bassist, including alt-pop, jazz, post punk and classical music. Balancing a deep admiration for songwriters such as Joni, Feist and Dusty Springfield with a fascination for masters of large-then-small dynamics such as Pixies, Dirty Projectors and St Vincent, the Bristol (UK) based artist started her musical journey as a double bassist in orchestras, but later found her own voice writing songs on bass guitar.
She has since released 2 albums of original material which recieve continued support from BBC radio and gained her performance opportunities alongside Nick Mulvey, This is the Kit and Alabaster DePlume. She has also had performance opportunities at many major festivals, including Glastonbury, Fusion (Germany), Shambala and Greenman.
“Love this song, love the way it’s produced. Love the whole sound of it. This beautiful mix of jazz and pop, it feels super contemporary. Stevie Toddler. Based out of Bristol. The album is called Such Big Ideas. And I’ve been binge listening to that this week. Maybe you should too.” - Jamie Cullum, BBC Radio 2
“An artist called Stevie Toddler made something that really grabbed my attention last week…” - Guy Garvey, BBC Radio 6

Fairfield House Ethio-Jazz Project.
From 1936-1941 Haile Selassie was exiled to Fairfield House, Bath, England due to Mussolini’s invasion of Ethiopia. Upon his return to Ethiopia, a flourishing jazz scene emerged spawning such luminaries as Mulatu Astake, Hailu Mergia & Walias Band during the 60s & 70s.
Fairfield House is now a community hub and heritage attraction dedicated to the lives of Haile Selassie and the Ethiopian royal family in exile: fairfieldhousebath.co.uk
2024 marked 70yrs of Haile Selassie as Hon. Freeman of the City of Bath and Fairfield House Ethio-Jazz Project was assembled to perform at the celebrations across the city.
Featuring some of the South-West’s finest musicians performing Ethio-Jazz classics and original compositions:
Harriet Riley - vibraphone, Ross Hughes - bass clarinet/flute/synth, Riaan Vosloo - double bass, Mark Whitlam - drums, Chris Saunders- Trombone

How do you beat loneliness? How do you learn to laugh again?
Busy young mum Gwen is at her wits end with her dad, Rhys, who’s hitting the whisky having lost his wife and son.
Bereaved and lonely, Rhys reluctantly joins his local Men’s Shed.
Experienced Shedders, Dai, Ioan and Charlie, with difficult stories of their own, show Rhys the ropes…woodworking, garden gnomes, and where the teabags live…
Our acclaimed new chamber opera, Shoulder to Shoulder, explores the issue of loneliness and isolation. Shoulder to Shoulder was developed through our partnership with the charity Men’s Sheds Cymru.
Shoulder To Shoulder is inspired by the moving, uplifting, and laugh out loud stories of members of Men’s Sheds Cymru. The charity supports isolated men by creating warm and welcoming spaces where Shedders build friendships, enjoy hobbies, and learn new skills. And drink tea.
Swansea City Opera collected ‘Shedders’ stories of life’s ups and downs. Librettist Brendan Wheatley of Swansea City Opera created the story of a group of ‘Shedders’, and Lenny Sayers (BBC National Orchestra of Wales) composed the music. The result is the chamber opera – Shoulder to Shoulder.
Shoulder to Shoulder is a powerful, uplifting exploration and often funny story of men overcoming isolation through their friendships made in their local Shed.
And a garden gnome becomes part of the story…
Expect an electrifying set from Bristol-based trio Zoobers, where techno’s pulse, math-pop precision, and jazz harmony collide to craft a sound that is as intricate as it is intense. With synths, vibraphone, percussion and drums, “Zoobers’ live sound is huge” (The Jam Jar Bristol) and not one to be missed.
Also on the lineup is multi-disciplined artist AFFIEJAM, primarily known for her work as a songwriter, guitarist and producer. Drawing on jazz, indie, and alternative influences, her solo performances are both dynamic and intimate, carefully crafted to bring her sound to life.
We’re thrilled to be joined by award-winning photographer Ayesha Jones, running a pop-up photography studio in the gallery. Strike a pose in the photo booth and come away with your very own professional portrait!

“Someone give this guy a movie soundtrack immediately.” (Guardian)
Self-taught pianist and composer Daniel Inzani has been a pivotal figure on the Bristol alternative music scene for more than a decade. He leads a neoclassical chamber quartet Spindle Ensemble, co-curates Hidden Notes Festival in Stroud, and he’s worked with a baffling array of outfits, playing Ethiopian funk, Indonesian gamelan and rocksteady, as well as working closely with fellow maverick musicians Alabaster dePlume and Cosmo Sheldrake.
In this very special concert tonight he plays brand new music from his recently released triple-album Selected Worlds with a 12-piece ensemble comprising some of the most original musicians on the local scene. The release was hailed with a 5 star review in The Guardian and listed as contemporary album of the month. It is compelling, deeply imaginative music that grabs the heart and the head in equal measure, and expresses the dazzlingly different faces to Inzani’s musical personality, from neo impressionist chamber and contemporary jazz to brilliantly cinematic soundtracks that evoke whole worlds in the imagination.
“What could be a huge act of hubris is transformed into gold by Inzani’s slightly unhinged sonic adventurousness and his storytelling skills…Someone give this guy a movie soundtrack immediately.” (Guardian)
a night of new & eclectic music at Exeter Library. Featuring Tyrani Collective + Jonah Corren. Plus a pop-up bar.

There are photographs that capture a single moment, a single idea—and then there are photographs that unravel a thousand meanings. Toufic Beyhum’s work falls into the latter category. His images present themselves as visual allegories, layered with cultural nuance and metaphor. His frames are not passive but demand interaction, compelling observers to lend their own rendition, making the work as much about the viewer as it is about the subject.
At the heart of Toufic’s photography lies a poignant commentary on culture, laced with sublime drollery. Whether it’s the falconry-inspired hoods of Burqa, the emoji-masks redefined through Namibian craftsmanship in Amoji, or the juxtaposition of streetwear sneakers with traditional thobes in Thobes & Creps, his photographs celebrate the tension between heritage and modernity.
This plurality, commonly found in his work, can be traced back to the constant movement that has defined Toufic’s life. Born in war-torn Beirut in 1974, he was exiled to London as a child of war, an experience that imbued his work with a sensitivity to cultural displacement and transformation. Later, his career as a creative took him across the globe, further enriching his visual lexicon and grounding his photography in an exploration of identity, heritage, and the interplay of cultures.
Toufic’s series Burqa has been acquired by institutions such as LACMA and The Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center, and it was featured in Yale Books’ Islamic Art – Past, Present, Future (2019). His photographic book Emotions in Motion (2007) offered an unfiltered glimpse into the lives of Berlin's U-Bahn commuters, cementing his reputation as a photographer capable of finding narratives in the everyday. The book received widespread acclaim, with copies held in the New York Public Library, Berlin’s Universitätsbibliothek, and the International Center of Photography in New York City.
His Amoji series, meanwhile, has travelled from South Korea to Dubai, Norway, and beyond, becoming part of the permanent collection at Oslo’s Preus Museum.
His photography has been exhibited in London, Berlin, LA, New York, Milan, South Korea, Washington DC, Dubai, Sharjah, Nizhny Tagil, Oslo, and Miami (Arizona). His work has been featured in:
