Newport Folk Festival 2023 - July 28-30

Just sitting here waiting for the queue to move. haha

i go every year because we're already in newport and its not like this is my main festival event or anything but still, it'd be nice if they got back to where they were a few years ago

looking at their tour, they hardly ever even play back to back shows, let alone back to back to back shows where the first show is 8+ hours away from the second. still technically possible though.

The new Remi Wolf song is a jam

I hope it is a hint.

Sumbuck

Yup, its Taylor's Solo project.

Ruh roh

Don’t burn your shirt now!

I’m surprised nobody is complaining that we haven’t gotten a single Quad Stage collaboration cover set announced yet. The spirit of Newport is missing so far.

Edit: I’m wrong, I guess Dawn Landes and Friends is sort of one.

I was much more optimistic a month ago than I am now 😆 Announcements have a been mostly a fart in the wind since

I'm still excited for 3 days of music in a beautiful location and maybe I'll find a new favorite like 2017 when Matt The Electrician was the 2nd best set I saw all weekend after Speak Out.

I was listening to Mereba last night and I'm excited to see her.

Probably at least 3-4 acts a day I'm excited about and that's enough for me.

Nice thought. But doubtful.

Hoping for 5 awesome announcements next week, and 3 unannounced slots that are pure Newport magic.  Either way, it's going to be an awesome weekend.
