Kerrville Folk Festival Features Impressive Lineup

One of these years I will get to the Kerrville Folk Festival. And having seen the lineup, I wish I could go this year. It is the 51st year of the festival, which itself is impressive. The festival has been around as long as I have, the first one being held just a few months after I was born. Anyway, the festival is eighteen days of music, beginning on May 25th, and going through June 11th, and the lineup includes John Fullbright, Pat Byrne, Darrell Scott, Anais Mitchell, Mary Gauthier, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Steve Poltz, The Brother Brothers, Bill Ward, Rebecca Folsom, Trout Fishing In America, Chris Pierce, Sam Robbins, and John Doe Folk Trio, among many others. In addition to all these incredible artists, the festival includes guitar workshops, ukulele workshops, harmonica workshops, a songwriter’s school, family concerts, canoe trips, nature walks and yoga. In addition, there is the Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk Award Winners Concert, which will be held on June 3rd. The whole thing sound fantastic. Various tickets and passes are available.
