Summer Madness Festival to feature The Electrics and Larry Howard.

THE ANNUAL summer Madness Festival, a Christian Arts Festival organised by the Church of Ireland Youth Office, will be held at Castle Archdale Country Park, Enniskillen, Northern Ireland, from 29 June to 3 July. Headlining on the main stage will be recently reformed American rock band Liberation Suite, from Texas. Originally popular in the early 70's, the band went into semi-retirement, but their Irish manager has arranged a tour of Ireland to mark their return to the music scene.

Popular Belfast band The Mighty Fall, who have built a sting local following in the last year, will also be playing Main Stage. Also appearing will be The Electrics (Glasgow), Stewart and Kyle, Oxford Circus and Larry Howard. Local groups at the Fringe will include The Ronnie Graham Band, Crusader and Lightwait. Poet Stewart Henderson will be making a return appearance. CR
