Organisers of a two-day folk music festival in the Black Country believe the area is "blessed with a wealth of talent".

The Black Country Folk Festival takes place at Himley Hall, Dudley, from 29-30 July.

Nearly 1,000 tickets have been sold so far for the event, which includes overnight camping for the first time.

Organiser James Stevens said: "We've got people succeeding on the national stage at festivals like Glastonbury and now we're bringing them all together."
