Danny Gruff ready for two sets

Danny Gruff has arrived at Osfest in the last hour for the first of his two sets.

The singer songwriter from Liverpool is performing on the main stage with Danny Gruff and the Peacemakers before a set on the second stage with JKLNO.

And the singer is excited for this afternoon. 'We did it last year. It's just full of really nice people. And it's not mainstream, everyone looks out for each other and it's a young crowd this year,' said Danny.

Danny who is joined in the band by his brother and other members has been going with the peacemakers for 18 months and he has just announced another solo tour.

'I have just announced a solo tour with 10 dates from Eastbourne to Glasgow.'

He added, 'it's good to go to other places with the following. And when we go to other places and people know the songs.

His band will be playing a new song 'box of memories' today and he said the genre of the band is changing.

'We are sort of folk, rock and punk. But we've moved more towards punk into way the songs are sung,' said the singer songwriter.

Danny said he will be sticking around this weekend.

'Well were camping tonight and sticking around. It's a big festival not just for Oswestry but Wrexham and Liverpool and other areas,' said Danny.

And he wants to see some other bands.

'It will be good to see The Maydays and Lucy Spraggan he is good,' said Danny.
