Festival of Folk 2013

This week sees the annual Folk Festival 2013 come to town. Folk lovers from all over will congress in Holmfirth to see musicians play and eat and drink in to the early hours. The Folk Festival creates a fantastic, vibrant atmosphere throughout the town and its businesses.

At Les Caveaux Folk Festival kicks-off this Friday, when we welcome back Steph Stephenson to the cellar bar to sing live around 9:30pm. Steph Stephenson is a singer, songwriter based in nearby Newmill. This will be Steph's 5th time at Les Caveaux Tapas & Wine Bar.

Steph performs a mixture of her own songs and also some covers. Her tone and style is described as 'a  contemporary take on folk music' and was described earlier this year as: "a real local talent!"

On Saturday the Folk Festival gets in to full swing. With parades on the streets of Holmfirth and families and friends filling the streets you will be able to fill your stomach or quench your thirst at Les Caveax. Our BBQ will be fired up, with Morroccan Sausages ready to go in the hope we get some sunshine?! The Cellar Bar will be open from 1pm serving our wide selection of World Beer including our Spanish draught Lager Mahou.

Saturday night is also going to showcase another brilliant, young local talent. 20 year old Stuart Bray will take centre stage from around 9:30pm. Stuart is a singer/guitarist who  is a true entertainer and will undoubtedly have the whole cellar bar singing and dancing to his every word! His style is contemporary 'folky' style, but he will sing covers ranging from the 70's right through to current chart music.   

In truth I am really looking forward to Folk Festival 2013 and all that it brings. It promises to be busy and if the atmosphere within the restaurant is even half what it was last year then it will be a quality weekend for each and every customer! I hope to see all of you over the weekend hope you'll join us for a drink or maybe even treat yourself to some of our top quality tapas.
