It’s Dave and Gillian, Old Crow is backing them up and guests will come. That’s it, and that’s good, don’t let Larry convince you it isn’t . They deserve that slot . It’s a folk fest, maybe having a folk headliner is a good thing every once in a while.
I’m also all in on Friday was supposed to be black keys and they bailed. I do think Noah is the replacement
Could it be the Punch Brothers instead, or maybe even just guesting? They’ve covered plenty of her songs before and have collaborated/co-headlined with her. And Brittany Haas is/was part of Dave Rawlings Machine?
Do they do Sunday after shows? I feel like it’s going to be Billy Strings/Chris Thile. I’m still convinced they’re both going to be there somehow.

They have in the past. But I think they moved away from it last year for whatever reason.

Pretty sure that Tick was always the only Sunday show. Once that ended, there have been none.
Good point.
And now that you mention it, I seem to remember articles about Newport Folk catching flak from the locals about the after shows since many of them are in venues not typically used for late night noisy endeavors. So Newport Folk may avoid Sundays.

To be honest - do we really need a Sunday aftershow? Y’all don’t want one day where you don’t have to worry about going somewhere when the fest ends haha!
I look forward to taking my time leaving on a Sunday knowing I’m missing nothing.
Have we considered that Dawes will be announcing Conan as the new bass player and the Masturbating Bear as the new keyboard player? Then a straight Dawes set from there.
Also, I think they have added a Sunday “elites only” event that I always see pics and videos from.
From what I gather, that’s the folk wrap up party for the crew and organizers. The new owner of Newport Blues isn’t the greatest human being (not my words), so I think they’ve basically cut ties. No standing agreement with any of the other venues for Sunday night.
The Cafe schedule has Newport’s Eve planned this year. I don’t see how they cut ties.

Black Keys may be back on the menu. They will be announcing new venues and dates soon. The word “intimate” is being used. It’ll be interesting to see the routing of the new tour. Newport aside, it would be wise of them to go back to a 2 piece and play an anniversary tour of some of those early records.

Folk is scheduled for Thursday and Friday at NBC
Sunday, for the standing agreement at other venues. They have first call for Thu/Fri/Sat at those venues. I’d be shocked if NBC hosted NFF after shows. But who knows, this “not seeing eye to eye” info was months ago. Maybe they hugged it out!
Yeah, if you go to the site right now, it’s happening.
Newport can complain about venues if they want, but fact is that there are not many options. Sooooooo, if they wanna make money, then ya gotta go with the options you have.
NPAC is still crawling along….im sure they are gonna be all over that, when it’s completed. However, NBC is one of a kind.
I don’t understand why people can’t wrap their heads around Gil and Dave being a headliner. They have not toured in 6 years. They deserve it without that fact.

They’re elder statesmen of the fest, highly respected by the other artists. They’re students of the standards. Could easily have a few cool guests pop in to give new life to one their originals or a classic. It makes way more sense to me than War on Drugs.

Mentioned it yesterday, but John Paul Jones would be epic on the mando. They play together occasionally.

probably because they're objectively smaller than any of the other acts that have headlined in recent years. and yeah they're bluegrass/folk legends but that's an act that's going to get a lot of "who?" from the majority of the attendees, like it or not.

also believing literally anybody from Reddit is a fool's errand, but Killer Mike on the Fort would be absolutely incredible just for the reaction it provokes from the chair and blanket crowd.
