Sound Of Sweet Music

Peter Sawyer • 6 June 2018

The sun is shining, the village is busy and the sound of sweet music is ringing out over the green thanks to Shannon Lewis, Westward Ho!'s own busker.

Westward Ho! musician and resident Shannon Lewis has been given permission from Torridge District Council, thanks to the efforts from our district Councillor, Nick Laws, to Busk on the Promenade along the sea front.

Shannon has been playing down here on a regular basis and is creating a wonderful vibe in the village. She plays the guitar brilliantly while singing a variety of songs with her own slant to them. If you are lucky, you can catch Shannon down here on dry days. Well worth sitting down and letting the music wash over you while you take in the stunning view over the ocean.
What can be better when you #visitwestwardho ?

Shannon will be playing in the Sunset Festivals during July and August on the village green, early Saturday evenings. Can't wait as she will help make 2018 Sunset Festivals special.

We expected 150-200 people and ended up with a village full! The spirits were high and it did begin to feel a lot like Christmas. What a great 2019 Christmas Light switch on but it showed we have to grow this event too as it's no longer a small, intimate community event.
