BBC Radio 2 has decent coverage (as always) buy alas no TV coverage confirmed as yet. Probably something on BBC Four next week. Anyway, some great artists this year including some of my personal favourites: Eliza Carthy (also appearing as part of The Imagined Village), Seth Lakeman, Laura Marling, Richard Hawley (standing in at the last minute for John Hiatt), and Devon Sproule. As ever, not all folk but all acoustic :)
