It’s time to tuck into a second slice of Green Man 2024! Join us again on site as we head backstage at the intimate Walled Garden to hear from a duo that are usually found hidden behind the scenes. Producer Barney Lister who has worked with Obongjayar, Rina Sawayama and Celeste joins forces with Kojo Degraft-Johnson, a vocalist who can be heard on Little Simz tunes to create MRCY, a soulful sound for tough times.
Then it’s time to venture into the woods to visit art installation, Dewiniath (or “sorcery”), by Megan Broadmeadow and supported by the Green Man Trust. Who better to discuss reconnecting and realigning with nature and folklore than forager, herbalist and founder of Healing Weeds, Maria Fernandez Garcia, a Right to Roam campaigner and educator fresh from her talk in the Einstein's Garden Omni Tent, and Welsh folk singer Gillie who brought wonder to the Walled Garden opening the stage on Thursday afternoon.
And to finish off this slice, we pop over to the Cinedrome, where compere extraordinaire Jason Solomons is in conversation with filmmaker Sally El Hosaini, who returns a year after her spellbinding masterclass to chat about her daring romantic drama Unicorns.
