Set on the sweeping grounds of the majestic Eridge Park, Black Deer is a three-day celebration of the best of Americana and country. In addition to the music, the festival is an all-round ode to the communities, cultures, storytellers and memories that make up this most authentic of worlds, with wholesome food & drink, artisan wares and custom-built motorcycles just some of the other means of paying homage to the cultural heritage of America. This year’s festival features a highly anticipated performance by our Best of Ireland cover star, Jessie Buckley, playing songs from the soundtrack of the highly acclaimed Wild Rose.

Hot Press Picks: You can’t go wrong with headliners Band Of Horses. Their widescreen Americana is the perfect accompaniment to the rolling hills of Britain’s oldest deer park. Oh, and the divine Jessie Buckley!
