Maverick has a reputation for showcasing American roots music in the UK. Set in the idyllic surroundings of Easton Farm Park with its tipi village and pastoral campsite, the festival presents an eclectic range of music, film, dance and workshops over four stages indoors and out and this year is presided over by sixties folk super star Melanie.
Melanie joins a line-up that includes veteran Canadian country rockers Blue Rodeo, American comedian and TV personality Rich Hall as Otis Lee Crenshaw, “Downton Abbey‘‘ star Elizabeth McGovern with her band Sadie & The Hotheads and over thirty other international acts for a long weekend of music and merriment at Easton Farm Park in Suffolk.
