THE cream of Borders musical talent is tuning up ahead of a new boutique festival in the Borders.

Summer Daze is being staged at Harestanes, near Ancrum, at the end of this month.

Fiddlers on the Ramp, Three Out of Four, Geckohead, Becc and Forth, Erin Highton, The Harmony Belles, Evie Archenhold, Riddle Fiddles, and the Abbey Brass Band are all lined up for the one day festival.

And several other acts are to be added to the bill in the coming days.

Becki Hodgson from organisers Live Borders said: "We’re really looking forward to the opportunity to showcase some of the best talent from across the Borders at Summer Daze.

“It will be a fantastic event for the whole family - live music, a barbeque, and various workshops for music, arts and crafts.

“Harestanes is such a great setting for festivals like this.

"Come to the event and take advantage of what else Harestanes has to offer. You can stay all day.”

Live Borders will host a series of‘Come and Try workshops, including music sessions featuring ukuleles and percussion instruments, throughout Summer Daze.

And there will be a special guest music workshop with Edinburgh’s community orchestra, Tinderbox.

There will also be carnival workshops which can be booked online for £3.50 in which children can make flags, headdresses, and instruments before taking part in a children’s parade later in the day.

Summer Daze takes place between 2pm and 6pm on Saturday, June 29.
