Besides the standard programme with local established bands for this year we did have a celtic fusion band from Santiago, Dana and two special guest artists.... they were the surprise for this year's festival, the well known world citizen folk musician Nano Stern and the sudanese folk singer, Ajak Kwai. Both were a blast for our festival....
