Festival on Addingham Moorside remains unique
THE Moor Music Festival will take place for the fourth year running on Addingham Moorside on August 7, 8 and 9 this year.
The full line-up of bands is yet to be revealed, but already signed are Audiojack, curators and players on Friday night in the Homespun dance tent, and current top ten artists Utah Saints playing and bringing the dance and funk acts and atmosphere of their long running Sugarbeat club night up onto the moors at High House Farm on the Saturday.
A spokesman for the organisers said: "The Moor Music Festival is without sponsorship or corporate tie-ins, the emphasis is on high quality and attention to detail - an emphatic love of music, appreciation of good food, being environmentally responsible, use of local produce and of course the stunning natural environment of West Yorkshire to show it all off."
Other areas within the festival include The MoorLive stage showcasing everything from indie music to blues, and the Green Room, a softly cushioned and laid back space where people can see the most cutting edge of reworked cult films, shorts and documentaries, live audiovisual shows and DJ/ VJ collaborations playing into the night.
Children will be catered for with Kids Camp where they'll be kept busy with workshops and a chill out space all culminating in a parade, encouraging them to start young in their festival going careers.
Event co-founder John Drysdale summed up what he feels are the key ingredients to a great festival. He said: "The Moor Music Festival is about having fun. It's about bringing together all the things that we believe make a good party and a great festival.
"Brilliant music, fantastic people, gorgeous food and a spot on location, we just love being able to share this with everyone who comes along. It's a refreshing reminder of how a festival should be, not forgetting key details such as frosty lagers and clean toilets."
