The festival was for 5 days and there was so much excellent music. Bill and I tried to capture it as best we could with pictures. However, the photos below is just a small representation of all of the artists that were there.
Tracy Chapman. Her voice and as you can see from this photo, her looks have not changed.
Sarah Mclachlan. Unfortunletly we were not able to get a very good phot of her but trust me, her performance was outstanding.
The audience. This photo doesn’t reflect the candle light very well. The audience was huge and spaned up an ampatheatre hill.
Kathleen Edwards: If you haven’t heard her do a search and listen to her. She has an incredible voice.
Steve Earle: another great.
Boz Scaggs: He’s still at it! Great performance.
This is none other than Raul Malo, the lead singer fron the Grammy winning group. Wow, he can still belt them out!
Raul Malo and myself.
The Skydiggers and myself.
This last phot was the biggest treat for me!
Remember Jefferson Airplaine? Sure all you fellow baby boomers do. LOL!
This is me with non- ther than, Jack Casady (right) and Jorma Kaukonen (left). They have been in the group Hot Tuna for 40 years now. When Jefferson Airplaine was together, they played in both bands.

Sounds like a fabulous time!!! My DH was at the Philly folk festival this last weekend (I couldn’t go). We saw Steve Earle in concert just a few months ago.
Love your photos with the greats!!
Looks like an amazing trip. Glad you had a great time!
Looks like a great time! I didn’t know Boz Scaggs was still singing.
I do remember the Mavericks! And I love Steve Earle. Looks like a wonderful time.
What a great way to spend some vacation time. Looks like a lot of fun!
You look like you had so much fun, Teddy! 🙂 I’m so glad that you were able to do and see so much on your vacation…Alberta is really beautiful this time of year, eh?
Thank you for sharing the pictures and memories with us! 😀

Beth, too bad you didn’t get to go Philly Folk Festival but it’s great that you got to see Steve Earle. This is the second time that I have seen him.
Zia, thanks!
Kathy, yep he is still going at it and still sounding really good.
Becca and Janel, it was a super time.
Bobbie, Alberta is nice. I love the drive through the Rockies!
That’s so awesome. I love the pictures, it really looks like you had a blast!
This sounds like a fabulous folk music festival. I like Tracy Chapman and so many others. I loved Jefferson Airplane and listened to them a lot in high school!! I’ll have to keep my eye on local folk music festivals.
Lilly, we truly did have a blast!
Bonnie, it was one of the best!
Great job meeting so many musical legends. Looks like a lot of fun. Plus, it’s always great to put a face behind the blog!
What a summer you’re having, Teddy — so many musical memories to treasure! The Mavericks and Steve Earl? I’ve got to share this post with my husband!!
John, it was a blast!
Wanda, it was a wonderful summer! We are hoping to either do Calgary or Edmonton again next year. Doing both was a ton of fun but exhausting. Yep, having fun is hard work.
Nice pics, especially the last one with Jefferson Airplane!
Oh this sounds like so much fun and what artists! To meet them! It sounds like an amazing experience, Teddy!
