WITH over 20 class acts from across the country, a magic little music festival takes place next weekend.
Those lovely people in Bramfield, near Datchworth, have invited an eclectic, summery bunch of artists to the fourth Bramfest at the village on Saturday, June 20, to play a wide range of music from lo-fi to hip-hop to 60s pop.
Acts appearing across the main stage and acoustic tent include the popsicle-melting tunes of Ivan Campo and the sweet quirky ukulele sounds of Sandra And The Memory Machine.
There's also soulful yet spiky indie-rock from Brixton's The Thirst, and Gideon Conn's inventive, shimmering hip-hop.

And for those of you who fancy penning your own songs, Benny Gallagher, who has written for Simon and Garfunkel, Bryan Ferry and Ricky Nelson, is holding a three-hour workshop before he himself gets up on stage.
Gates open at noon, with the first band on a 1pm, and the festival closes at 11pm. Tickets cost �12, with under-13s free when accompanied by an adult.
