Calgary Folk Music Festival: Friday, July 22, Day 2

Gates open at 2 pm, close at 11:30 pm.

Here’s the lineup for tonight’s mainstage at the Calgary Folk Music Festival:

6 pm Matt Anderson

“Known for his larger-than-life showmanship, big sound and virtuosic guitar playing.”

6:50 pm Nanci Griffith

“Tackles weighty issues and tells vivid stories about her characters’ lives with beautiful lilting folk and country-traced balladry.”

8 pm Bonnie Prince Billy

“Brings his trademark do-it-yourself Appalachian post-punk aesthetic and blunt honesty.”

9:15 pm Patrick Watson

“Mercurial vocals and a penchant for surreal acoustic and electric landscapes create a detailed miniature world that evokes imaginative flights of fancy.”

10:30 pm The Herbaliser

“Since the early 1990s, their albums and rousing shows have encompassed hip-hop, rare groove, funk, jazz, cool samples, live instrumentation and guest vocalists.”
