Newport Folk Festival | Newport, R.I., July 30-31- Replica Ray Bans
This is the festival that earned much of its fame through the apostasy of one performer (some cat named Dylan) whose legendary performance in July 1965 refuted the very musical traditions the festival was based on.
In the years before that concert, and certainly the years since, the Newport Folk Festival secured its reputation as a venue that thinks outside the comfortable confines of what “folk music”is supposed to sound like. Replica Ray Bans Wholesale

This year’s lineup makes the case: Expect sets from The Decemberists, and acoustic performances from Elvis Costello and Gogol Bordello.
Music industry veterans Wanda Jackson and Mavis Staples are finding new audiences on the festival circuit (Staples is set to make an appearance at the Bumbershoot Festival in Seattle over Labor Day weekend). They’ll be playing Newport as well. Replica Ray Ban Wholesale
