A celebration of Americana Music and all its subgenres will take place on Sunday 25th August 2024 at the 3 day Maui Music and Performing Arts Festival, held at the meadowland site at Gressenhall, near Dereham in Norfolk. Acts from the US include Amanda Anne Platt (from The Honeycutters), Hannah Kamina and Tony Brook. From Canada, bluesman Tim Lee and from the UK, The Horse Puppets, J.S. and The Lockerbillies, The Vagaband, The Delta Jacks, Dove and Boweevil plus Dobro legend, Noel Dashwood. “Americana is an all-encompassing music genre embracing Alt-Country, Roots, Blues, Celtic Rock, Bluegrass and Folk Rock – in fact outside of electronic dance music it’s probably the most widely performed live music heard today in the UK, everywhere and anywhere from festivals and concert halls to pub gigs” says Anne Steel, organiser of the Americana Day.
Maui is a 3 day and 4 night festival of international music, performance and arts. Now in it 11th year as well as the Americana Music Stage, there will be five other stages, encompassing music, comedy, cabaret, DJ dance tents, a circus big top, the Living Art Show (body painting- not for me or there would be a public outcry – Ed.), Maui’s Got Talent and a large enclosed Kid’s Arena with lots to do for children who have free entry (13yrs & under) throughout the weekend! Sounds like a perfect day.
