PRESENTS

The amazingly talented Cadbury Sisters supported Rick on his 2015 tour and were loved by everybody.The rare appearance of The ‘Electric Strawbs’ will of course be very special and Rick will be joining them on stage for both The Hangman and the Papist and Where is this Dream of Your Youth using a 1960’s Hammond L100 organ similar to the one used on the original recording at the Queen Elizabeth Hall. Sir Henry at Rawlinson End is that wonderful piece written by the late Viv Stanshall who Rick worked with. Michael Livesley’s amazing version with his 11 piece orchestra, is performed every year at the Bloomsbury Theatre to celebrate Viv’s birthday & in which Rick makes a guest appearance.

Roger Dean, the undisputed sixth member of YES, will be exhibiting his amazing artwork and appearing throughout with a rare opportunity to purchase both original work and prints.

Appearing on the Sunday as a charity benefit day in aid of The Grand Order of Water Rats are the brilliantly entertaining London Philharmonic Skiffle Orchestra plus magician and comedian Miki Travis.Comedian Adger Brown will present a very special music auction, plus a musical comedy act of sheer genius, (Rick’s actual words), with Kevin Orkian. To round the festival off there will be a special guest appearance by Chrissie Hammond who will join Rick and The English Rock Ensemble. There will also be the launch of HaGaTaS, a new book publishing company accompanied by readings and an appearance by Alfie...(work out who Alfie is if you can).There’ll be something happening from beginning to end ... and negotiations are at an advanced stage for an early visit from father Xmas!
