WHITE MOUNTAIN FOLK FESTIVAL  
Folk-rock legends Magna Carta will return to South African shores for the first time in 30 years this September. Fans of classics such as Airport Song, Time for the Leaving, and Highway to Spain will have a chance to witness their special brand of acoustic music. In support of their latest album, Backroads, Magna Carta will be showcasing their memorable songwriting and virtuoso playing at the White Mountain Folk Festival. In founding member Chris Simpson’s words, “wherever you are we’ll give you a time to remember… Apart from looking forward to returning very much, I feel that the time is right, for we have never been on better form.” Simpson is accompanied by Linda Taylor on guitar and woodwind, and Matt Barnhoorn – who also guests with the classic English folk band Fairport Convention – on electric mandolin and violin. Founded in April 1969, Magna Carta became one of the greatest protagonists of the English folk-rock scene. With notable classics such as Seasons, Lord of the Ages, and Putting it Back Together, and with album sales in excess of 8 million units worldwide, Magna Carta’s significance is difficult to question.
