About 2/3 of those artists have been epic. I'd have included Kate Rusby, Frank Turner and the Treacherous Orchestra.
Great memories. Definitely Carlos Núñez was our favourite artist and one we were proud to perform with.
Ferocious Dog, Tom Robinson, Tankus the Henge, and the fabulous Grace Petrie.
4 years Back with Roger Taylor! ❤️
Police Dog Hogan would fit in great!
I loved Le Vent du Nord last year. I know you’ve had them many times, because Jenni knows the lads well, but it was my first time seeing them and they are just amazing.
I recognize an awful lot of those photos :-)
Loved Kiefer Sutherland and his band, also 10cc, Ralph Mctell and Graham Nash

Memories! Nice one Wickham Festival
Face in the Crowd: Seen at last year's Festival. But who was Ferg?
I'm Ferg... could have been a subtle request that I play there next time round !?! 😉 www.facebook.com/nothingconcrete1
Haha I love it! 😂😂 Wickham Music Festival I was looking for Fergus Cameron !!! Him and Sid disappeared but we found them chilling at their camel camp tent 😎😂 xx
We're going through some photos of last year's Festival and this one puzzled us.
I dunno ... but I saw this on 'Fans of Jackie Magazine ... it's from 1971.
Well it's Ferg... Init? Lol
No! I'm Ferg! Or was it Spartacus? 😂
Ferg Al Sharkey
Sophie Louisa Carter.....I think people are looking for answers 😂 x

Was she wearing that wig for a bet though?
I remember, she was amazing 💕thanks Wickham fest! Xx
Still such a beautiful voice. Wickham is my very favourite festival.
Loved seeing her ❤
I saw her recently at G Live, she was amazing !
Not bad for an 80 year old.
A highlight. Loved seeing her live and hearing her stories of Leonard Cohen!
Wasn't expecting anything, or from Nash's set, but they were both absolute highlights for me, not just here but for 2019. REAL professionals...
She was amazing!
Geoff Bland I was there - amazing!
Brilliant set!
Reduced me to tears x
Mine too!
Live concert tonight by one of our Wickham artists & comperes Alistair Goodwin. Saturday 8.30pm. Enjoy!
