Back in 2006, Brazilian graffiti artists, as part of the pan-continental art-clash ‘Graffiti Project’, flew over from Sao Paulo to hand-paint the walls of the castle, creating a visually stunning spectacle and an extraordinary festival backdrop. The free-spirited ethos of The Garden Party aimed to attract musically-aware, fun-loving festival-goers, with a passion for new, inspiring music and successfully created this relaxed and intimate atmosphere.
Side-stepping traditional festival line ups, The Garden Party took place on June 20th and 21st and had a strong focus on hand-picked local talent with a wide-spectrum of international underground artists, quite happily uniting gypsy folk and samba with electronica and techno.
This show brings you some of the tracks from the best acts recorded live from Saturday’s line up, including music and an interview with Simon Richmond from The Bays and music from Scottish based artists James Yorkston, Dave Donelly and Joe Acheson Quartet, in addition to Bonobo and Black Cats.
