A RARE opportunity to experience a day of music, dance and fun, to celebrate summer in the beautiful gardens of Grimstone Manor, near Horrabridge, with the performances in a giant marquee takes place at Grimstone Music Festival, Saturday, July 9. Headlining will be festival favourites Nigel Shaw and Carolyn Hillyer with their band Riven, whose evocative dance music draws inspiration from the Dartmoor landscape. Also appearing will be Praying For The Rain, acclaimed London-based band who play tribal ambient music, plus multi-instrumental duo Scott Jasper and Sue Garlick from Okehampton, and local guitar guru Tim Clarke accompanied by friends and family. There will also be storytelling, circle dancing, and workshops and stalls selling local crafts, a natural therapy tent and tremendous home-cooked food, real ale and organic wines.
