Gem Saloon, Saturday 28th May 3.45pm

Describe in a tweet: Paper boats rather than galleons.

What happened?: 5 folkies in a line on stage played to a small, mildy appreciative audience. No one got overly excited or stressed.

Silk Purse: Its completely pleasant , inoffensive modern folk with a couple of bits of rhythm that differ from the usual. And it's probably what we need at this point of the day to let us rest up before the remainder of proceedings.

Sow's Ear: Its completely pleasant , inoffensive modern folk, seemingly aimed at the Mumford market, but without the rabble-rousing catchiness or hooky choruses of some of the scene's leaders.When done right this can be great joyous fare but there's no blood and thunder or heart-wrenching passion to elevate them beyond a name on the timetable here.

Rating: 5/10
