Fantasy Festival number 6: The lineup

Marika Hackman: Singer/songwriter and multi instrumentalist Marika Hackman released her third album, Any Human Friend, last year and continues to write brooding guitar driven indie folk. You can visit her website here.

Neko Case: Neko case has been making atmospheric Americana since the early 2000's. More recently, she was one third of the supergroup case/lang/veirs. You can visit her website here.

Sharon Van Etten: Sharon Van Etten's fifth album, Remind Me Tomorrow, was one of the highlights of last year, featuring a slightly off kilter synth infused sound and wry songwriting, it should stand the test of time. You can find out more about Sharon over on her website.

Martha Wainwright: Martha Wainwright has not been having a quiet lockdown. In fact, she seems to have embraced the lockdown live and the balcony gig with great enthusiasm, which is nice to see. You can find out more about her on her website.

Patti Smith: The legend that is Patti Smith emerged from the New York underground scene of the early to mid 1970s. 1975's debut Horses was a rock and design classic even at the time, and remains so. Recently, Smith is known as much for her books as for her music, but she is still performing. You can find out more at her website.
