Footwear answer to folk festival fun Living Bangor Daily News BDN Maine
Last week I got myself a set of comfortable black and purple slip-on sneakers for five bucks in the mall. I didn buy them because they matched any particular outfit, or because I've got a fondness for cheap-o Chuck Taylor rip-offs; I purchased them because I planning ahead for that American Folk Festival.
The thing is, for someone much like me (an easily excitable music nerd),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the folk festival is like an all-you-can-eat buffet. I wish to cram as much in to the three days of the festival as possible. I map out my strategy for seeing bands days in advance, so I don miss an excessive amount of. Which has taught me a valuable lesson: Wear comfy shoes. Preferably ones which are good to dance in. Listed here are my picks for which really going to be hot at the folk festival this year. You are able to refer to the supplement published last weekend in the BDN for schedules, or snag among the ubiquitous pamphlets that will get handed out during the festival.
The Junk Yard Band: There always one act every year that, when I begin to see the name announced, Time passes, Sweet! This year, it had been these guys. The Junk Yard Band has existed and at the top of the go-go game because the 1980s, and uses handmade and found instruments to add to the polyrhythmic stew. When this band plays, the Dance Pavilion will blow up, yo.
Hassan Hakmoun: The belly dancers in and around Bangor could possibly get their shimmy on when Hassan Hakmoun takes happens. Hakmoun plays Moroccan Gnawa music, a trancelike style rooted in both Islamic devotional singing and the more rhythmic traditions of sub-Saharan Africa. The sublime and also the earthly meet in Gnawa, and Hakmoun is among the world foremost practitioners from it.
Jason Samuels Smith and Pandit-Chitresh Das: An African American tap dancer as well as an Indian classical dancer walk into a bar. OK, that was a lame joke. However it not all that not very true: Smith and Das met backstage at the American Dance Festival in North Carolina in 2004,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and recognized in one another both dance genius along with a kindred spirit. It proof of both artists vitality they manage to respect each other traditions, while creating something innovative and engaging.
Diunna Greenleaf and Blue Mercy: You realize why I really like seeing a blues act at the festival every year? Because,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for somebody my age, you're able to see people your parents age and older hang out at the beer tent through the Railroad Stage, patiently waiting for someone such as Greenleaf to start playing. And then, when they do start playing, those folks start dancing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], singing, hooting,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], hollering and generally letting loose, in a manner that just the blues can inspire. It overturn of watching your children in the playground. After which there also the fact that Diunna Greenleaf is really a powerhouse blues diva who will rock your socks off.
Chino Nunez and Friends Orchestra: Ay, mami! Salsa music. For this reason I purchased new shoes, people. Eileen Torres returns towards the festival again this season to show all of us how you can dance correctly during Nunez set. Watch out for Bangor Latin dancers. Like zydeco, any and all Latin music is always a festival favorite.
Johnny Hiland: This guy grew up inside a mobile home in Woodland, aka Baileyville, in Washington County. He legally blind. His refuge was his guitar and by the age of 8 he was playing in his family bluegrass band and touring Maine. Now he a nationally renowned session musician that has toured the planet. He's respected by guitarists as diverse as Ricky Skaggs and Steve Vai. And that he starting off the folk festival this year with a set of razor-sharp, freewheelin country guitar music. Not bad for any Down Easter, yeah?
Emily Burnham, is going to be using the Monday following the festival off in order to sleep for any good 12 hours.
