Marlborough’s major music festival – MantonFest – will be back next year at the normal time (last Saturday in June), of course, Covid permitting. As ever it will be held in the field adjacent to Preshute Church.
Headlining again will be The Animals, including MantonFest on their ‘final tour’, who were a great success on their last visit to MantonFest in 2016.
Supporting will be Barrelhouse, a local Blues band but with an international reputation, now with a couple of albums
Also supporting The Animals are Jean Genie – a Bowie tribute act, Rosalie Cunningham (with 7-piece band), FAB4 – an Nottingham based Beatles tribute band and local bands – Dangerous Kitchen and Manton’s very own Skedaddle.
Also appearing at MantonFest this year, for the first time will be another emerging local band, Kotonic.
BBC Wiltshire will be there live and will be compering.
