Mainstage Continuity Friday
One of the most important jobs at Cambridge Folk Festival is maintaining the atmosphere whilst the stage crew change from one band to the next. It's not just a case of playing a few tunes as you often have to try and switch the atmosphere and expectation from one genre to the next.
That job is carried out by Bob Patterson and Alan O'Leary and they've got it off to a fine art. They also have to suddenly pull tracks out of the bag if there's an unexpected delay.
One of the usual array of questions that we get asked after the festival goes along to the lines of "What was the second track after the KT Tunstall set?" Well here, thanks to Bob and Alan are the answers, the artists, the track and where provided the album. Thanks guys
