Our gramophone-powered steam train has lots of stops scheduled this year, far and wide!🚂 But there are always certain stops on our travels that really stick out as extra special 🪄 One of our very favourites is pulling out train into the wonderfully special family festival that is @danthehatslalafest
Everything about this small scale 4 day festival is pure magic - specifically created for families with kids, absolutely packed to the brim with joy provided by musicians, street performers, face painters, storytellers, magicians, jugglers, comedians and creative workshops... AND the food (for Martin 🍽️🦕🍽️) and ALL THE COFFEE (for Tom ☕🦖☕) is incredible!
This festival is just one big warm hug created by our favourite street performer *bar-none* Mr 'Dan The Hat' and his amazing wife, Layla. Come support this wonderful grassroots festival and dance with us in the countryside this summer ☀️
🌳🎪🌳 If you're looking for a family-friendly festival this summer - this is the one ⭐🎉⭐

Next Friday 25th July 2025 we'll be dodging dinosaurs in our vintage car on route to play @thepointeastleigh theatre in Eastleigh as part of their Summer Sessions events 🦕🚕🦖 This is an outdoor event, very family friendly and just bloomin' lovely! xx
We hosted this stage for 5 consecutive years at @larmertreefest and it's pretty safe to say, without exaggeration, that this stage transformed our careers to a point where our @stillmovingdjs gig diaries were basically on fire 🔥📆🔥 We returned this weekend to play on this beautiful stage after exactly 10 years since we last stood on its wooden floor built in 1895 🦖🎭🦕 xx
We’re buzzing for this one! 🎶🇲🇼
The brilliant @madalitsoband are bringing their joyful, uplifting sounds all the way from Malawi, proper feel-good music that’ll have you smiling and dancing all night. 🌍💃🏽
Kicking things off is the ever-eclectic Martin from @stillmovingdjs , spinning global grooves to get the party started right. 🎧🔥
This one’s all about good vibes, great music, and a proper boogie!

!! 🚨 Show Announcement 🚨 !!
From the streets of Lilongwe to festival stages across the world, Madalitso Band share joyful, acoustic music rooted in Malawian tradition. With a homemade babatone and four-string guitar, they create raw, rhythmic sounds that speak to everyday life, love, and resilience.
Self-taught and self-made, their story is one of creativity, culture, and community spirit. Whether performing for a handful or a crowd, their music is full of warmth, movement, and soul.
