Day four of CityFolk Fest offered clear blue skies, warm temperatures, and short shorts. Rounding out a weekend of unique musical experiences, the final day of this annual Ottawa tradition actually provided some of the strongest and quite possibly most dynamic performers.
Ottawa’s annual Folk Festival returned to Lansdowne Park for a second consecutive year on Thursday, and is continuing strong as we plow through the weekend events, with more to follow starting Sunday afternoon. The festival, now widely known as CityFolk has continued to grow in new and inventive ways, included an expanded lineup of incredible performers throughout Ottawa’s local bar and restaurant scene….Marvest.
As the sun started to set, the black curtain was pulled down and the boys were back, less than 2 years away from their last Bluesfest, Boston’s Dropkick Murphys hit the stage. They brought a whole lot of energy, just guessing, but the next few days may not have the same energy or security at the front of the stage for that matter.
Ottawa’s annual CityFolk Festival is back with a powerhouse lineup that will see it return to Lansdowne Park this September 15 to 18.
