Gathering
The Gathering, Legends of Folk Rock, features a veritable Who’s Who of key players, whose combined experience and membership have seen them record or perform with some of the most influential artists to grace stages and record collections across the world. Comprised of former and current members of Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span, Lindisfarne, Magna Carta, The Albion Band, Jethro Tull, and Pentangle, never before (outside of the seminal festivals of folk-rocks’ brightest and finest period) has such a line up drawn from the genres’ most influential bands come together on stage to celebrate their shared heritage of songs and performances!
