“The guide outlines a 1.5 - 2 hour walking route in Bristol and includes several mindful walking exercises to try out along the way as well as some suggestions of small moon based rituals you can partake in. What is mindful walking? It’s a way to help you focus on being in the moment by checking in with the sensations in your body. The exercises are a really simple way to help us connect to the environment around us and find new ways to enjoy walking together.”

“This year ever-evolving alternative soulstress AUGUST brings us closer to home through her project ‘Got Those Strings’. A lyrically potent and electronically fragmented body of work, AUGUST has personally expressed ‘Got Those Strings’ to be a direct commentary on “non-conformity and a refusal to accept the boundaries and stereotypes that are inflicted upon us daily”.”

“Sam Lee plays a unique role in the British music scene. He’s an acclaimed, award-winning inventive singer, a folksong collector, conservationist and founder/director of The Nest Collective who’ve helped shake up the music scene and injected life back into the folk trad and world acoustic scenes. With his critically acclaimed new album, ‘Old Wow’, he takes the listener on a truly compelling and emotional journey that takes his work to yet another level.”
