A stunning line-up of local talent present themselves for what sounds like a pretty perfect day of music down by the Thames.

Playing for your delectation will be Balkan Wanderers, The Epstein, Black Casino & The Ghost, Rainbow Reservoir, The August List, Nia, Ags Connolly, Caroline Bird, Luke Kennard, and Tamara’s own band Death of the Maiden. George Chopping comperes.
