Bands already confirmed as taking part are (in alphabetical order): Bending the Strings, the Down and Out Bluegrass Band, the Knotty Pine String Band, the Tennessee Hennessees, and Woodbine. Five more bands (yes, you read that correctly) are still to be confirmed; and if the possibilities now in view are realised, it will be a momentous weekend.
