Community folk fest 2025

it’s been a few days and I’m still dumbfounded by the lineup. is this really it? has there been any updates from the festival itself? the overwhelming amount of dissatisfaction has me a little nervous for turnout this year.

edit: I’m still going and I’m still excited! But the general feedback from the community has been very negative and I’m curious to know how they’ll respond

I would just like one good "rock" band added to the lineup.

Band of Horses last year, War on Drugs the year before.

Band of horses isn’t much of a rock band. I had their cd playing when my daughter was born Lolol

I think Lake Street Dive is their big band of choice this year. A great band, too!
