Festival Special: Who we discovered at the Great Estate Festival 2025 | Part 2

Jump into the excitement of Great Estate 2025 with WhisperCast! Across two episodes, we will be interviewing a range of artists, creative businesses and sound engineers to learn more about the Great Estate, the festival scene in Cornwall, as well as what amazing creatives were being showcased at this year’s festival

In this episode, we go behind the main stage to interview Millstone Sound’s very own Jude Monk. We learn more about the operation of running sound at a festival like Great Estate, and all the exciting things Millstone gets up to over the summer! We then jump over to the secret Gin garden stage, where we have a chat with Kitty Crocker, a musician who’s been causing a real stir with her impactful songwriting and stellar performances. We learn more about what goes into her songwriting process and how she crafts such incredible music.

We then head back over to the Cornwall Shop Small tent, where we meet Kareni and learn about her work at Kelpi Studio, a studio all about telling the stories of nature. Finally, we get the pleasure of sitting down with Petrea. After playing three sets at the festival, the bands talk about the wild journey they’ve been on to get to Great Estate 2025, as well as what’s in store for the Falmouth rising stars.
