Speaking about this year’s Forest Sessions Stage, festival organiser and main man James Scarlett says, “the Forest Sessions Stage always throws up some of the real Trees highlights that linger long in the memory – for instance who can forget Frank Carter in 2017 or Rou from ENTER SHIKARI last year. This year I’m particularly excited for MULL HISTORICAL SOCIETY (who will be joined on stage by SUEDE’s Bernard Butler), the brilliant death-gospel of A.A. WILLIAMS and most of all the absolute legend that is Andy Cairns from THERAPY? Do not miss these sets!”
