Rockfield Country Music Festival;

The third Rockfield Country Music Festival is a 4-day extravaganza of Wild West and country music entertainment which will see 24 country music acts playing in a huge marquee down in fields by the River Monnow, three miles outside of Monmouth. Last year saw 300 caravans and as many as 3,000 people attend the show and 2012 looks to be bigger and better than ever.
Music is provided by many of the UKs award winning country music artists including Texas Tornadoes, Spur, Chris James and Kay D and Nashville Star Search winner, Rachel Cain.
Each year, the festival holds a Battle Of The Country Bands competition where twelve up and coming country artists and bands compete for audience votes to win £2000 of recording time from sponsors Monnow Valley Studio. Last year saw Dutch band, Sidewinder, who had travelled for sixteen hours just to play the competition, walk away with the prize and they return to play as a main act in 2012.
Other entertainment includes The Lawmen wild west show which re-enacts gunfights and bar brawls from the Wild West, plus line dancing lessons, a mechanical rodeo bull machine, horseshoe throwing, and a fast draw contest.
As many as twenty trade stands will be selling authentic American cowboy hats, boots, belts, crinoline dresses and other western wear, which is usually worn by a majority of the attendees at the event, making for an amazing 'American frontier' atmosphere.
