Coming originally from Hungary,
The Moon and the Nightspirit
has steadily been growing to a well known pagan folk band ever since 2003.
While listening to the beautiful tunes of this duo, you are taken into a green world of an ageless moss-grown forest, sylvan realms, where they weave a web where threads of ancient mysticism, dreamy atmospheres, and a place for pagans to feel at home.
It takes you on a journey that will have your feet move and your face pulled up in a smile.
When live on stage Ágnes and Mihály are supported by two more brilliant musicians
Gergely Cseh
(bass) and
Végh Gábor
(percussions) to make their unique sound even more full of live and power.
Come and experience this with us at
Castlefest
in 1.5 weeks time!!! The Moon and the Nightspirit will play on Friday, Saturday and Sunday!

Cliff’s review of… ‘Waldkauz – Mythos (2017)’ is online!

When we found out that the origins of
Waldkauz
are firmly connected with
Castlefest
, that
Nina
and
Niklas
met
Gina
,
Peter
and
Lennart
there, which in turn was the foundation for the band as we now know it ànd that they were going to close the festivities on the camping stage, it was clear that only one band could be reviewed before we all go to Lisse and Castlefest opens it’s gates again.

Cliff: When i suggested to do a review of Waldkauz’ album Mythos, the reactions within the CeltCast team were unanimous: – ‘Yes do them first.” – “I second that.” – “You will love the info booklet!” – “Cool! They are such nice people. Well deserved”.
So, the mission was clear. We hope you enjoy the fruit of Cliff’s labour!

Árstíðir, an Icelandic group

Árstíðir
is an Icelandic group formed in 2008, though many of you will probably know them from a video that went pretty viral in 2013 of them singing Heyr Himna Smiður in a trainstation in Germany. (If you don’t yet know the video we definately suggest you find it on Youtube!)
Since their formation they have released four albums filled with their special blend of classical influences and pop feel. Their music is very hard to put into any category, but words like “ethereal”, “impressive” and “harmonious” certainly fit the bill.
They wooed the crowd of Castlefest last year with their amazing vocal harmonies and we’re certain they will be another highlight this year with their performance on Castlefest’s Forest Stage Saturday the 4th of August!

We have to admit, The Dolmen live on stage is epic.

We have to admit,
The Dolmen
live on stage is epic. No matter the situation, time of year or venue, these guys and girls know how to make it huge. They know how to make you feel like you are one with the earth, the festival and the people around you. They know how to make you let loose and go wild.
This epic feeling lingers as we think of last year’s Castlefest . Both during the summer and winter edition, The Dolmen, with their Celtic rock made it more than special.
During the summer version of Castlefest they made us rock on pagan sounds, pirate songs and good old true guitar solos. And while this was also true at the winter edition, it was the yule rituals of 2016 and 2017 performed by singer Taloch , that made it all the more special.
So today we are throwing you back to these three festivals and make you remember how awesome these shows were.
And if you cannot remember, or wasn’t there, you can play a little catch up this coming Castlefest. The Dolmen will be rocking the stage Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

This band, surely deserves a place in the spotlight

This band, surely one of the discoveries of 2018 deserves a place in the spotlight. As the CeltCast team, we were all very impressed when we saw and heard them for the first time live at
Keltfest
this year.
The SIDH
, a young and innovative band from Italy, makes a type of music rarely heard at the festivals in Holland. It is a combination of contemporary and electronic Celtic music, made with whistles and bagpipes, keyboards and percussion, Hip Hop and Dubstep beats. It feels like you are taking a trip into the Folk music of the 22nd century.
And we can safely say that we want to hear much, much more of this music at the festivals.
At Keltfest, The SIDH, created a party like no other and naturally, we cannot wait until they will hit the stage three times at Castlefest ! On Friday, Saturday (camping only) and Sunday the party will be at the Fested Castle!
