Steve Heap was the director of Towersey Festival for 45 years up until 2019 when he retired. “I joined an acapella group called Folk Valley, singing mostly English folk music,” he says.

“We made a record, toured some clubs in the UK and across Europe and made another album when we came home. In the end, though, I found myself knowing more about organising events then playing at them and decided that was probably a better career path.”
