On Saturday, September 10th, six brilliant bands will take to the Alma’s stage – the same venue famous for hosting the highly successful annual Linton Music Festival, which attracts artists and music lovers from afar. 

The Linton Summer Sessions, held at this popular village pub close to Ross-on-Wye, are much smaller, more intimate music events, where local bands play for local people to raise money for local charities. After the success of last year, this one-day, family-friendly, outdoor music festival is back by popular demand. 

The focus for the event will be the great music, providing the audience with an eclectic mix of rock, blues, jazz, reggae, fusion, pop, and acoustic music. 

This year’s Sessions present new and exciting rock/blues band, the Setting Suns, plus the long-awaited return of Little Rumba offering sweet music from the Welsh Borders! Other returning bands include contemporary folk/pop trio, Little Boy Lost and legends of the local music scene; Ian Drury Allstars, The Other Crowd and The Baddoos. 

As well as all this, there will be a great selection of real ales, ciders, soft drinks, BBQ and a bouncy castle for the little ones!

Tickets are £10 on the gate or £8 in advance from the Alma Inn (free admission for children under 15).  Any money raised will go straight to local charities, which include the Village of Linton Trust and Gorsley Goffs PTFA.
