Newport Folk Festival Mix

email

I spent this past weekend in Rhode Island at the Newport Folk Festival. I am pretty exhausted, but I wanted to get you kids this mix as soon as humanly possible. Which turns out to be close to midnight when the goal was bed by ten. So you won’t get much commentary here (maybe one day I will update this post (but probably not)) but what you will definitely get is a mix, a track listing, and some video I took over the weekend. Enjoy all three.
