KT Tunstall plays last summer gig

Having seen the likes of The Verve, The Raconteurs, Vampire Weekend and Kaiser Chiefs (plus some comic relief from the amazing Bill Bailey) take to the Eden stage, the consensus among many is that the 2008 Sessions have been the greatest ever.

The final Eden Session was a show from Scottish folk-popstrel KT Tunstall which more than lived up to these high standards, and even the weather behaved itself.

Introduced by Eden chief executive Tim Smit, KT greeted the sell-out crowd with "Welcome to the womb of nature", a nod to Eden Founder and CEO Tim Smit ("he's really cool") and proceeded to deliver a polished, varied set.

2008 has been a vintage year for live music at Eden and KT and co were the ideal mellow finale.

You can watch lots of brilliant interviews with this year’s headliners, see photos from the gigs and post your own reviews on our cool Eden Sessions website.
