Now in its third year and held at an American theme park about eight miles from Newquay, this festival celebrates American folk and country music with a host of artists.

Most of the line-up is now confirmed and is as follows: Simple Kid; Rod Stern; Pipettes; Tokyo Dragons; Chrome Hoof; Circulus; Witchcraft; Alan Tyler; The Tailors; Pink Grease; Kitty, Daisy and Louis; Peter Bruntnell; The Beat Up; Misty's Big Adventure; Jason McNiff; Swearing At Motorists; Rosinators; Salty Dogs; Leafhound; and The Messengers From God, plus Rob and Karen (Sin City/Heavy Load).

The festival site consists of two towns: the law abiding and sedate, Fort Smith, where the roots and country acts reside and the simultaneously roudy, Silver City, where the louder and more lawless acts will be holed up.

There's no music on Sunday but there will be the traditional Sunday shoot-out, for those recovering from Saturday night's shindig, like last year.
Tickets are now on sale.
