Friday night
Dansette will be returning
"Dansette are a horn-driven eight piece band who play an authentic mix of 60's Soul standards from the Stax/Atlantic/Motown stables. If you want to think Blues Brothers and Commitments you'll be half right, but we don't stop there, we'll take you on a Soul Journey through that golden era that you just won't want to end. Dancing shoes are optional but enjoyment is guaranteed!"

Saturday

Cardiff Arms Park Male Voice Choir will be joining us in the afternoon.

In the night we will have Still got the Blues - a Four Piece band from Pontypool, formed in 2007 from members of the Borough Blues Club. They have played at Pontypool 'Jazz in the Park' and other local festivals.
"If you want a bit of Blues, with a bit of classic rock thrown in, then come and see us, and get a smile on your face, and some rhythm in your toes!"
