Going to see Patty Griffin, The Avett Brothers and half a dozen more bands at The Appel Farm Arts Festival. I cannot tell you how excited I am! I haven't been to a show in over a year or so!
I have been a Patty Griffin fan ever since I heard "Long Ride Home" in Elizabethtown. Like any good song, I began searching for more songs by Patty and discovered an amazing singer and performer. I have sang her rendition of "Let Him Fly" before and I cannot wait to hear it live. "It Don't Come Easy", has made me cry more times than I can count when I lived far from home. You can say her music has traveled with me wherever I have gone.
My sister turned me on to The Avett Brothers recently. They have a simple, clean, soulful sound and beautiful harmony. I still can't get their songs out of my head after months. VERY EXCITED for their show.
There is something special about going to a festival. I think it is due to the fact that everyone is there to just sit back, relax in the sun and enjoy a good show. No preconceived notions. Also, a country festival brings a well-rounded bunch, with some fun characters!
Hope you have a great Saturday!
