An action-packed
programme of events is lined up mixing the best from
last year with the best acts from all over Europe.
The line-up includes Steph Buhe from France,
PetTommy and the Brokenhearts from Germany and Slow
Train Band from Italy. Afterwards there will be
Dylan acts on the DylanFest pub trail throughout
Moville.
The festival runs from Thursday |
night, July 3 through
to Sunday, July 6, and will feature Josh McClurg,
who is also booked to play DylanFest in his home
city of Manchester this year.Another popular band
making a welcome return to the Foyleside town this
year are the Phantom Engineers who were the
highlight of last year's DylanFest.
A Dylan music table quiz and open mic are two of the
features of Sunday afternoon's entertainment.
For the festival finale - No Direction Home - on
Sunday night, there will be live music and Dylan DJs
in all seven participating pubs.
"This is a particularly good night as many of the
musicians who have finished playing come to see
those playing on the final night and like to join in
with them," said organiser Gerry McLaughlin. To see
