It's been a badly kept secret, but we've had to wait until the band were ready to announce the whole tour.A pioneering and thrilling live band, Afro Celt Sound System return to live
action this summer for the first time in five years.
Twice Grammy-nominated
and multi-million album selling, the band play summer festivals throughout
Europe. Shrewsbury Folk Festival is very proud to be one of a select few
festivals in the UK presenting the Afro Celt Sound System in 2010.
A career-spanning survey double CD release of the bands best work
on Realworld will be announced soon.

modern, the black and white, the fluidity and breathless glee" Q Magazine

Awesome band. Never thought I'd get to see them live. Thank you Shrewsbury - you have made my year!!
By far one of the 'best' bands I've ever heard in my life. I'm 60 years old, liked good music since I was a kid (Pink Floyd, Chieftains, etc.), and absolutely LOVE everything they play...it's for real.
THANK YOU...!!!!!!
It may not be some people's idea of folk music, but who cares? It's head-banging for the cardy and tankard generation!
