There's so many amazing festivals out there but it can be difficult to work out which festivals you're going to attend. There's so many things to take into consideration - the location of the festival, the size of the festival, the genre of music, whether it's family friendly and the type of facilities onsite.
Skiddle's new Festivals Finder is here to make the process that bit easier. Simply use the Festivals Finder's unique festival search, which include options allowing you to search for festivals based on filters such as location; month; genres; type; size; accommodation; amenities and even the artists you've liked on Facebook!
McAuley, who grew up in Belfast, is best known as the piano player in Them, who relocated to LA without Van Morrison in 1967. Upon Them's demise, he formed Belfast Gypsies with his brother Pat (they also released a 45 under the name Freaks Of Nature) and he later moved to Dublin and formed a band called Cult, with Brendan Bonass and Paul Brady (who was later in Planxty). This proved to be a short-lived affair and before long McAuley was back in London, playing in a new band, Trader Horne, which he'd formed with Fairport Convention's original lead singer Judy Dyble. This interesting group fell apart when Dyble left to get married and McAuley then recorded this solo album with help from some of the best young jazz musicians of the time. All the material was self-penned except for a version of Leadbelly's Poor Howard.
