Newport Folk Fest: Helm, Yim, Bird, Avetts

George Wein’s NEWPORT FOLK FESTIVAL RETURNS TO ITS SEASIDE HOME JULY 30 – AUGUST 1

Newport Folk Fest 2009 by Brueckner

The spirit of an open-hearted, old-fashioned family reunion is being summoned to life for this year’s 51st edition of George Wein’s Newport Folk FestivalÂ®, which begins July 30 at the International Tennis Hall of Fame at Newport Casino and continues July 31 and August 1 at Fort Adams State Park in Newport, Rhode Island.

Tickets go on sale worldwide on Friday, March 26, at 10 a.m. at www.newportfolkfest.net.

George Wein’s New Festival Productions continues to build on the festival’s historic past by featuring emerging young artists alongside some of folk music’s most venerable names. This year’s festival features Levon Helm‘s Ramble on the Road, John Prine, Steve Martin & Steep Canyon Rangers, Yim Yames (of My Morning Jacket), The Swell Season, Andrew Bird, The Avett Brothers, Brandi Carlile, Doc Watson & David Holt, Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, Calexico, Blitzen Trapper, Richie Havens, Sam Bush, The Low Anthem, Tim O’Brien, The Felice Brothers, Justin Townes Earle, Tao Seeger Band, AA Bondy, Chris Thile’s Punch Brothers, Dawes, Nneka, Horse Feathers, Pokey LaFarge & the South City Three , Ben Sollee & Daniel Martin Moore, Sarah Jarosz, Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons, O’Death and Liz Longley. More artists will be announced at a later date.

Many of these musicians have performed and recorded together or crossed paths along the musical highway and they see this storied festival as being so steeped in cultural and historic importance that they liken it to “coming home” to the very roots of the folk-music tradition.

Wein has, since 1959, found Newport a scenic and hospitable venue for presenting the very best of this country’s blues, roots, gospel, country, bluegrass, Cajun and traditional folk music. Last year’s 50th anniversary edition paid tribute to the great performers who wrote the proud history of this festival, notably co-founder Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Ramblin’ Jack Elliot, Arlo Guthrie and Mavis Staples.

“Newport is like a second home to me and I always look forward to the next visit,” said Wein. “After celebrating the 50th anniversary with Pete and 17,000 fans, I can’t wait to see the magic unfold over the three days.”

“There is something so perfect about being in Newport near the water and that old stone fort – all gathered in to sing with family and friends – that keeps me wanting to come back year after year,” said Yim Yames. “It’s like the walls of the fort are arms, and I feel secure when I am near them, protected by the spirits there – past, present, and future. And, I like to hear our voices bouncing off those old stone walls as my eye drifts to the sailboats on the seashore and the people just smiling and taking it all in.”

All tickets for George Wein’s Newport Folk Festival go on sale Friday, March 26, at 10:00 a.m. online, by phone and by mail. General admission tickets (single-day passes only) also can be purchased in person at the Newport Visitor Information Center, located at 23 America’s Cup Avenue.

Lissie: Dates/New EP Out Now

LISSIE: WHY YOU RUNNIN’ EP IN STORES NOW
On Tour With Ray LaMontagne, New Dates With A.A. Bondy Announced

Lissie

Lissie‘s EP Why You Runnin’ arrived in stores via Fat Possum Records last week. With her powerful, achingly evocative voice and mix of haunting and spirited, always soulful songs, the EP has been climbing the iTunes charts (a recent #1 rank for singer/songwriter albums) as early praise has begun to roll in. In advance of her headlining show at the Mercury Lounge in New York City this past Monday, Time Out New York offered: “…Lissie takes on Americana with a cool, breezy vibe and a strong voice… get to the Merc tonight to see what all the fuss is about.” Reviewing the show, Blender.com remarked, “her throat’s power seemed to almost knock the walls down… Lissie was dynamic with her entire body, putting tremendous energy out, and it showed. An excellent introduction to New York.”

Radio is also already responding to Why You Runnin’, with Lissie recently taping performances for WXPN’s World Cafe Live (Philadelphia, PA) – which will air January 19, 2010 – as well as WFUV (New York, NY; air date TBA). She is also confirmed for an in-studio performance at influential station KCMP’s The Current (Minneapolis, MN), in addition to an upcoming KCRW Morning Becomes Eclectic performance on November 24.

Recently, AOL Music’s Spinner blog featured Lissie’s stirring new single, “Everywhere I Go,” as their Free MP3 of the Day. Spinner will also be streaming Why You Runnin’ in its entirety throughout the week here. Last month, My Old Kentucky Blog premiered the EP’s first single “Little Lovin’”, a track which moved TheFader.com to write, “…her spirit is all purple mountains majesty, pure and regal, a true Americana singer, conduit of the land…the richness of her voice never wavers.”

Additionally, Lissie – who is currently opening for Ray LaMontagne on select dates – has now announced two new tour dates in support of label mate A.A. Bondy later this month in Omaha, NE and Columbia, MO. She is also set to headline her own KCRW-presented show at the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles, CA on November 24.

Lissie recorded the majority of the Why You Runnin’ EP with friend Bill Reynolds (Band Of Horses) in her Ojai, CA farmhouse and at Echo Mountain Studios in Asheville, NC. Originally from the river-bordering town of Rock Island, IL, the wistful “Oh Mississippi” was recorded with Ed Harcourt last fall while she was far from home in London.
