A CELEBRATION of Americana and new folk music is returning with an award-winning line-up.

The event, which is in its fifth year, will take place on Friday, June 24, in Harwell, near Didcot.

Fox performed at last year's event as the supporting act for The Black Feathers. Such was his welcome that he was asked the following day to headline this year's event.
He will be accompanied by his friend John Parker on double bass. John last performed at the event in 2018 as part of The Willows band.
Anna Renae is returning to the event, put on by music lovers Duncan and Vanessa Chappell, for the third time in a row.
She recently performed in Abingdon at the Loose Cannon Showcase, as well as at Oxford Folk Weekend, and at the Beardy Folk Festival in Shropshire.
She has been compared to musicians such as Suzanne Vega and Taylor Swift. She previously played the event in September 2020 and was back again in 2021 with The Last Inklings and Roswell.

Mr Chappell said: Ranae is a "Harwell favourite. Her song writing has great maturity."
The event takes place at Harwell Village Hall in High Street from 7pm.
