Is their full set online anywhere? 

I'd love to watch it all back. I absolutely loved it.

No full set that I can see. But it was a highlight, wasn't it? They completely got the crowd on side, one of the best sets of the weekend, one of the best festival sets I've seen.

Yes I think its on iplayer, Agreed, one of the sets of the weekend, incredible stuff, had the whole field dancing!

Got thumbs up like Jeff Lynne for these guys.

[Digital Monkey (Womad)]

I knew these guys would be good. I missed them at WOMAD last year (an inevitable clash) so glad to see their name pop up on the bill. In my top 10 performances of weekend definitely.

Liked the cheers from the crowd when the sun occasionally peeked through the blackening clouds.

And surely no one wore better outfits then these guys anywhere on site.

Brilliant, we had never heard of them before but were blown away, amazing with the sun making an appearance as well.

Did anyone playing West Holts not have a stormer?

Fantastic busting the moves to these in the rain. One of the sets of the weekend definitely. Wasn't expecting them to be that good!

[Digital Monkey (Womad)]

Glad that a good number of people invested in the time for these guys. Not sure numbers but certainly well into the hundreds, despite the drizzle

One of the people in our group was only interested in the acts that he had heard off so had no chance getting him to this one. I think I managed to meet up with him once a day over Friday to Sunday

Worth its own topic, the field of the festival hands down

Only managed to see one act here this year, but what an act, Mbongwana Star.

They were great. Thanks Brave Sir Robin for putting it together for me to discover them. I've got them on Spotify now, and bought their CD. Our group all loved them.

PS, I want their hats.

Saw them on jools holland so was very interested in seeing them. They didn't disapoint one bit!

[FuzzyDunlop]

Full set!

All hail the Holts! It could split off with William's Green and Greenpeace and still be the UK's best festival.

[Avalon_Fields]

Definitely a highlight for me, I'm going to get one of their albums. I also enjoyed the Paradise Bangkok Molem International band.

[Badlands]

Little Simz was a bit flat but all the other WH acts were ace.

[Watergirl]

It was my fourth time seeing them.  They are fabulous indeed.  Finally got my hands on one of their CDs as well.

If you like them, this is a really good link also, from Roskilde Festival a few years back.  Full show.

I am in that audience somewhere!
