Jo Harman’s blues soaked voice, superb song-craft and mesmerizing stage presence makes her one of the biggest draws currently on the live blues scene.

Geoff Lakeman
Sun 01 Dec 2019
Lichfield Guildhall
A Cornishman who has lived on Dartmoor for 40 years, has been described as " A stalwart of the West Country Folk scene and the father of a virtual folk dynasty." He's the dad of Sean, Sam and Seth Lakeman, who are all internationally renowned folk musicians. His smooth tenor vocals and unique concertina accompaniment have won him plaudits and fans over the years but it has only been since retiring from a long career as a Fleet Street Journalist that Geoff has truly spread his wings musically.

Get involved with Fuse!
Lichfield Fuse Festival has been a huge success for Lichfield Arts but we now need new people to join the organising team to help keep it going and become even bigger and better.
The festival brings thousands of people together over a whole weekend each July to enjoy a diverse range of music, creative/performing arts and much more in Beacon Park, Lichfield in a family-friendly, community-spirited atmosphere.
As Lichfield Fuse Festival continues to grow, we are looking for new people to join our management and co-ordinating teams. We are particularly in need of help with project management, booking infrastructure and performers, fundraising and dealing with compliance issues. It’s hard but extremely rewarding work from November to July in a very friendly, supportive team.
If you love Fuse and think you have skills which could help it run (or know someone who has) please get in touch with us now (before 31st October). Don’t forget it’s YOUR free festival so please get involved!
Many thanks to White Stuff for their continued support. Pictured are left to right Charlotte Thacker Asst Manager, Lorraine Mitchell Deputy Manager, Sally Duncan Manager.
The team have been running a book sale throughout January at the Lichfield branch of White Stuff to raise funds for Lichfield Arts. Many thanks to those who have kindly donated books.
"White Stuff are proud to sponsor Lichfield Arts. It is great to support our local community. It is good for business and we get to see some terrific live bands."
