In past years SummerTyne Americana Festival has hosted an eclectic roster of acts, with many styles represented. 2010’s festival (22–25 July) was billed as "SummerTyne Americana": the "Americana" element has previously been just one element of the Festival, but in 2010 was the full theme of the Festival, encompassing principally country music, but with many types of American music represented.[1]
