The Newport Folk Festival continues its lineup announcements and added even more interesting acts.

The announcements made over the past week are:

Laura Marling – I have had her on my radar to see because I have heard many wonderful things about her; now I’ll have my chance!

Heartless Bastards – an alternative rock band

The Suffers – this is a soul band out of Houston; they sound really good!

So far, I’m already thrilled that I have a three-day ticket.

I plan to post the announcements weekly until NFF has completed the entire lineup. At that point, I might offer my opinions on the acts, once I know who is performing which day.

At this point, the only remaining type of ticket is the Friday single-day ticket. This is an amazing festival – even going for one day is worth it. Get your tickets now!!!

Friday: Haunt the House, Leon Bridges, The Lone Bellow, Bahamas, Heartless Bastards

Saturday:  Courtney Barnett, Sturgill Simpson, Madisen Ward and The Mama Bear, Langhorne Slim & The Law, Brandi Carlile, The Suffers
