The UK's first Americana festival is returning once again this week, showcasing music from both sides of the Atlantic to people in Suffolk.

The barns and fields of Easton Farm Park will once again be transformed into a festival site offering six stages both inside and outside.

These will present an array of music, dance and masterclasses and more than 50 singers and bands will take to stages across the park.

The festival has been running since 2008, and is one of the biggest events in the Suffolk calendar for lovers of all things American.

Amongst performers, Portland's Jerry Joseph will perform, as well as country roots duo Wild Ponies.

The festival will have a variety of food and drink stalls on offer, as well as serving up a Cajun special, featuring a dance workshop and some of the UK’s best and brightest in the Cajun and Zydeco scene.

The festival runs from Friday, July 5 to Sunday, July 7.

Tickets are still available for weekend or just day tickets and can be found here.
