Prizewinners from the Open Mics were Jeff Josephs (best original) and Mark Frank (best cover). The festival was especially pleased that long time folk supporter Michael Bourne attended and we were able to feature him as the festival’s closing act in the final Open Mic Session. Thanks Michael for your contribution to music in the South East!
A big thank you to those who attended the innaugural Eudlo Music Nights – what an occasion it was for us all. The weather was on our side and everyone who was there simply loved the music, the venue, the food and the friendship - it doesnt get much sweeter for a small, boutique festival!
So a massive thank you to all those who put the effort in to make it as good as it was! And even better news is that we’re doing it again on the October 6/7 weekend!
