ORGANISERS of a Ramsbottom music spectacular have got the blues after its sponsor pulled out.
They urgently need a new financial backer if the Ramsbottom Rhythm and Blues Festival from June 16-18 is to be successful.
Now in its third year, the festival has put the town on the musical map. Last year some 3,500 people watched 60 bands perform over three days at Ramsbottom Civic Hall and in nearby pubs.
David Agnew, director of The Met arts centre said sponsors Thwaites had decided not to continue their support. Any sponsor will not only have increased coverage with a well respected brand but also help the festival develop over the next few months.
