This Thursday-Sunday is the Black Potatoe Music Fest in Clinton, NJ.
It’s the 13th annual, a summer staple of the Jersey music scene.
There was a write up yesterday in The New York Times & The Star Ledger. The lineup this year is stellar. Lots of acoustic slinging songwriters: Chris Smither, Cheryl Wheeler, plus hot up and comers like Sarah Borges see the whole 4 day jam packed kick-ass lineup at BlackPotatoe.com
I play on Sunday July 12th at 1:30pm
(accompanied by the brilliant Marty Paglione on percussion). Directly following my set are 3 of my favorite players: Peter Mulvey, Willy Porter and Ellis Paul. No kidding, these guys are all monsters of folk. DO NOT MISS. It’ll be a great day for acoustic music heads like myself and hopefully you.
Props to Matt Angus (playing Saturday 9:30) for putting together a great lineup, and to Rick Lee for the great poster above, and to all the volunteers who make this great festival happen every year.
See you down by the riverside!,
