The Cornmarket Acoustic Club has been part of the Liverpool spirit of music for three years and yet somehow a festival has been missing from the clubs social calendar – until now.

With music being a central point in Liverpool, perhaps only matched by the abundant love shown towards its two football teams, there is always somewhere to go, some alleyway in which the sound of a pleasing saxophone, the gentle guitar or demanding vocal drifts to the music lover’s ear and takes root and begs to be explored. The Cornmarket Acoustic Club feeds on this and gives so much in return and whilst they have travelled far from the early ethos of being a folk club, music is still very much king and is benevolent enough in which even the art of poetry gets to share the stage.
