Taking a closer look at each festival:


At Delfest, of course, we see that the McCourys are all over this thing, playing in various formations and with killer banjoist Noam Pikelney. One of our favorites, Aoife O’Donovan (Crooked Still), will likely get some backing from Noam and a host of others.



Kerrville is still filling out its schedule, but we’re delighted to see former Acoustic Live feature Seth Glier included, along with past featured artists Susan Werner and Jonathan Byrd. It’s also a treat to see Canadian Aengus Finnan making the rounds in the lower 48 once again.



The GottaGetGon lineup has, once again, thrown us a curve with acts unfamiliar to us. The lone exception here is the highly talented Sally Spring with Ted Lyons.

The shadows of winter grudgingly fade into spring, feinting a departure, then spring back time and again with a mischievous chill. The final letting go heralds the onset of another glorious festival season.

This year’s festival issue introduces a couple of festivals new to our publication: the Great South Bay Music Festival in Patchogue, NY (Long Island), and the Mountain Folk & Roots Fest in Biglerville, Pa. Both will be in July.

In June, once again promoter Steve Lurie has put together an eye-popping lineup for the Clearwater’s Great Hudson River Revival.

We’ve read on the event website that this is Fred Eaglesmith’s last year at Roots on the River festival. It’s surprising, given that he seemed to be the festival’s guiding light. Maybe Dave Alvin, here with The Guilty Ones, will take over. This eloquent pillar of badass would make a fitting centerpiece.



















We’re excited to see acts like the venerable Kris Kristofferson, Hot Tuna and Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings on the bill at Clearwater’s Great Hudson River Revival this coming June. The act we’re most jazzed to see, though, is Sun Volt. When Jay Farrar left highly touted Uncle Tupelo, people rightfully thought it was the end of a great group. What they never suspected was that Farrar would form another winner, Sun Volt, and ex-bandmate, Jeff Tweedy, would form still another. The past is alive with Pete Seeger still here and Judy Collins raising her voice.





















Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell are examples of why Telluride Bluegrass Festival succeeds by resisting a purist stance. Emmylou and Rodney are still on tour in support of their album Old Yellow Moon. Richard Thompson, who’s been touring with them, also is here. There are still stalwarts like Chris Thile  and the Punch Brothers, Tim O’Brien, the McCourys and Bela Fleck to hold down the tradition.

Brandi Carlisle • Colin Hay • Delta Rae • Iris Dement • John Gorka • Brother Jocephus and the Love Revolution • Caravan of Thieves • Aoife O’Donovan • Low Cut Connie • Joe Crookston

We weren’t able to get a bead on who’s playing in late May at the Dylanfest at Warwick Winery, but we’re betting Rod MacDonald will be there. He’s an old favorite and no one does Dylan better. In lieu of a performer slate, we’ve chosen to list all of their upcoming summer events.















The Bluegrass Festival at Strawberry Park has the Greencards and that’s all we need to find our way over there.

If you can get Steve Riley and Geno Delafose to show up at a festival, there’s a party about to happen. Well, they’re at the Cajun/Zydeco Festival and there’s enough talent rounding out the bill to insure that the party goes on as expected.


There’s no doubt that Iris Dement will be showcasing her new(ish) album Sing the Delta at Appel Farm Arts and Music Festival. Connecticut-based Caravan of Thieves has gotten its fair share of attention in the New York area lately. Former AL feature Joe Crookston continues to show he’s still a singer/songwriter to be reckoned with.



For us, the biggest reason to go up to the mountain for Warren Haynes’ Mountain Jam is the presence of Austin guitar slinger, Gary Clarke Jr. The multi-faceted Clarke was beyond dazzling on his latest CD, Blak and Blu. I’m sure my iPod has some grooves worn in it somewhere from repeat plays.

We’ve read on the event website that this is Fred Eaglesmith’s last year at Roots on the River festival. It’s surprising, given that he seemed to be the festival’s guiding light. Maybe Dave Alvin, here with The Guilty Ones, will take over. This eloquent pillar of badass would make a fitting centerpiece.
















We know the Old Songs Festival is living up to its heritage when we see names like Gordon Bok on the bill. There is a healthy representation from the New York Pinewoods organization with Heather Woods, Ken Schatz and The Johnson Girls in attendance. We had just found out about singer/songwriter Sam Amidon and heard that his parents, Peter and Mary Alice Amidon, playing here, were “superstars” of a sort up in the northern climes. Their website more modestly states that they are “versatile and widely respected performing and teaching artists who for the past twenty years have dedicated themselves to traditional song, dance and storytelling.”


The Great Blue Heron Music Festival has its favorites. Appearing once again are Donna the Buffalo and Big Leg Emma. Nobody’s complaining.


Acoustic Live in NYC is thrilled to be a cultural partner with the American Roots Music Festival at Caramoor. We’ll be there as “Del does Woody” in the evening concert and we’ll be cheering on our projected June feature artist act, The Stray Birds, during the afternoon concerts.























The Mariposa Folk Festival lineup provided a shock for us. Reading the name Randy Bachman (with the Sadies), we thought, “Takin’ Care of Business?” Whoa. Well, he was also a member of one of my favorites back in the day, The Guess Who, so I figure that gives him license to go wherever the music leads him. Arlo Guthrie and Gurf Molix are also invited, so that’s making it tough this year to continue our own tradition of attending a certain festival in New England that weekend.

The New Bedford Folk Festival is the place we usually find ourselves during the 4th of July weekend. We’ll be eager to see old musical friends Beppe Gambetta, John Gorka and Lori McKenna. Fiddler Jeremy Kittell is returning this year. Last year Jeremy stole the spotlight. Adept at playing bluegrass, Celtic, folk, pop or even jazz, he was the man everyone wanted to have sitting in on their set. It will be a thrill to see him again. In addition, it’s been a while since we’ve seen Antje Duvekot or Brooks Williams, so all things considered, this will be a trip well worth making.

















We first saw Leon Redbone at Fox Hollow Folk Festival in the ’70s. Here he is, still going strong at the Winnipeg Folk Festival, along with people like Dan Bern and Josh Ritter. With others such as Martin Sexton, The Flatlanders, and Dr. John, we’d have to say that the star power here runs pretty deep.


The spirit of Woody Guthrie is alive and well in the person of Pennsylvanian John Flynn, no matter where he goes, but it’s even more appropriate at the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival. He’s joined by dedicated followers Jimmy LaFave, Ellis Paul and Vance Gilbert, all (including John) former featured artists for this publication. Another former feature, the angelic-voiced anti-hunger activist K.C. Clifford, is (we think) a newbie at this event.





When you look at the linup every year for the Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival, you know you’re seeing the mother lode in this genre for the northeast region. Del McCoury, Jerry Douglas, Tim O’Brien, Chris Thile and Michael Daves … it gets deeper and deeper all the time. We hear the new location isn’t as picturesque as its former home, the Rothvoss Farm in Ancramdale, N.Y., but that isn’t stopping anyone.
