| The Producer..... |
The Keyboard Experience Weekends are produced by Cled Griffin and his family. Cled introduced Home Electronic Organs Festivals to the UK in 1980. The first event took place at Pontin's Barton Hall, which was then the flagship of Fred Pontin's holiday empire. The success of Cled's weekend organ-keyboard holiday breaks can be attributed to new ideas, making each event a most exciting and enjoyable experience for music lovers. The Sand Bay venue in 2009 will be another big step forward. In the meantime the October 2008 event at Lyme Bay will be extra special and should not be missed.
