It's almost time for the American Folk Festival on the Bangor Waterfront. This three-day event features musical styles from around the world, along with a variety of foods, dance tent, merchandise tent, and more! I wanted to give you an idea of what the Festival has in store for this year so you can plan your weekend!

If you're like me, you look the schedule over early to decide when and where you want to be during the Festival! And it certainly doesn't hurt if you have an idea of what's offered ahead of time. So here a few of the performers you'll see on the Bangor Waterfront this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Remember, the American Folk Festival is free, but organizers hope each attendee will donate at least 10 dollars, to help ensure the Festival stays free year after year. It costs a LOT to put on each year! For a complete schedule of this year's American Folk Festival, check out their website.

Now, on to the performers! We're featuring two today, including Sista Monica Parker, the lioness of the blues...and bluegrass with the award-winning James King Band!
