Description:

This one day FREE community festival, now in its twelfth year has grown bigger and bigger over the years and there are now two stages including the original truck stage. The festival takes place at The Recreation Ground, at The Chase just off Kelvedon High Street on Saturday 10th July 2010.
 

Kelvedon Free Music Festival is proud to announce this year’s headline act will be Southend rock & blues band the Hamsters. The guitar, bass and drums trio have long been established as one of the UK’s premier live attractions, having performed over 4,000 concerts in 24 years. Although primarily playing their own brand of rootsy rock & blues, they're also widely regarded as the UK's leading interpreters of the music of Jimi Hendrix & ZZ Top.

"The Hamsters are fabulous: one of Britain's very best live bands" - Bob Harris, Radio 2.

The Hamsters will be joined by bands such as Angry vs the Bear, Medicine and Raise these Sails on this year’s Kelvedon Festival main stage.

There is a craft fair in a marquee, a barbecue, and a beer tent plus other hot and cold food and drink.
