Festivarian Events Folks Festival

We just posted the (almost complete) single-day lineup for the 21st Annual Rocky Mountain Folks Festival.
http://bluegrass.com/folks/lineup.html

Of course, that also means that single-day tickets ($50) are now available. :thumbsup

The single-day lineup includes these final additions:

  • Jackson Browne (!!). One of our true musical heroes, Jackson Browne will be performing a special solo set to close the festival on Sunday night.
  • The Civil Wars. The stunning guitar/piano duo mix a Swell Season-esque passion with gritty Americana/folk.
  • Missy Higgins. The charming young Aussie star (one of our favorite pop singer-songwriters) returns for her 3rd Folks Fest appearance.
  • Mama Kin. The sassy Australian soulstress makes her Planet Bluegrass debut.

Here’s the current single-day lineup (as always, artists are listed in reverse order):

Redrocks= a hot concret cocktail party that just will not shut up and sit down. Don’t even get me started. Folks are not there for the music last I checked. Some chick with a huge butt was back to me the entire set, like she was at a bar, never once turned to listen to the music. Give me the PBG Ranch any flippin day, any line up.
