TradArrr (Not sure if the pre Cropredy gig at Banbury would rule them out)
As PJ seems to have reformed LJE for a few gigs this summer, perhaps an option. They're certainly overdue a return to Cropredy. It was Gareth's band wasn't it? |

I saw Calan last year and they'very noticeably grown and matured as a band since their set a few years ago at Cropredy. I think they'd make an excellent choice for a return visit.
My dream ( but feasible ) list...
Mark Knopfler
Lindisfarne
Caravan
Amy Mcdonald
Imelda May.
My impossible dream...

Knopfler, Lindisfarne and Amy McDonald all get my vote. If I was actually going - which, unfortunately, is not very likely at the moment - I'd also like to see William the Conqueror (Ruarri Joseph's current trio) and the wonderful Ange Hardy |

Given the acts already announced, I can't imagine there's much left in the budget. Maybe one more biggish name for the Thursday headliner (although I'm braced for disappointment there), plus a number of lesser known (i.e. cheaper) acts. There's usually some sort of rock/blues band somewhere, plus I imagine we'll have a scratch Sandy Denny tribute. Add a couple of singer songwriters and that's your lot.
Having said all that, I'd be chuffed to be proved completely wrong if the following were announced:
The Decemberists
Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats
The Cat Empire
Paul Heaton and Jackie Abbott
The Rails
In fact, I'd be happy (and surprised) to see just one of them. While were at it, how about getting Joe Broughton and his Conservatoire back for a full set?

Steve Earle is in Europe during July.
Any chance he could hang around for a bit?

Well yes it does matter. I've never had a bad Cropredy, but the music makes the difference between just another enjoyable Cropredy and a fantastic Cropredy that Mr Bridgwit and I will talk about for years to come. Last year we didn't consider the line-up particularly good, but Trevor Horn's band blew us away and kept us on a high all weekend. A few years ago it was Paul Carrack. One year it was a Ska band at the Red Lion! I'll be honest and say there's nothing on the line-up this year that particularly inspires me, but I'm always hopeful and I will thoroughly enjoy myself anyway. See you at the Cricket Club!  |

Hear hear. Not sure there are any other names to make it any better. People may nominate =ideal= bands or individuals but in reality its not going to be a mega star! |
