Enjoy authentic folk and blues music on Labor Day weekend at the 20th anniversary of the Plymouth Folk and Blues Festival, a beloved family-friendly event.
The weekend kicks off with local legends Jay Ottaway, an internationally known singer-songwriter, and Phil Henry, a nationally recognized festival singer and the Vermont Music Educators Association’s Music Educator of the Year. Day one will wrap up with The Milkhouse Heaters, a husband-and-wife duo with vocal harmonies.
Day two of the festival will feature The Speckers, a family who dazzles audiences with their fiddling, vocals, and rhythmic sway.
Krishna Guthrie, great-grandson of Woody Guthrie, uses the foundation of his family’s music with an infusion of his own rock, blues, and modern influences.
Grammy-winner Hubby Jenkins follows the thread of African American history in America’s traditional music forms.
All concerts are free. Cash donations to support the artists are appreciated, and there will be collection of non-perishable food items for the Vermont Food Bank.
