Julie Felix played at the Unicorn Theatre in Abingdon two years ago.

She was back again this evening, on the last night of the Abingdon Arts Festival, for what was a brilliant concert. She sang some great songs including Masters of War, Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands and Hallelujah.

She ended her third encore by asking Pam, the louder than life compere of music at the unicorn, to join her on the Scottish Ballad: Wild Mountain Thyme.
