54th Annual Philadelphia Folk Festival

Presented by Philadelphia Folksong Society, the communion of traditional and contemporary music otherwise known as the 54th Annual Philadelphia Folk Festival returns to Old Pool Farm this weekend. Kicking off last night, the event assembles a collection of musical talent from both near and far. This is the place to find legends like Arlo Guthrie, Larry Campbell, and Teresa Williams, the rising blues of Selwyn Birchwood, or Mississippi blues-rocking trio The North Mississippi Allstars. However, a fine contingent of local artists are represented including Levee Drivers, John Mallinen, Lovers League, Philly Bloco and Hoots & Hellmouth to name a few. Soak up some sun and excellent music. It’s going to be a warm weekend.
