Festival Description

The Ann Arbor Folk Festival is a rich celebration of the great folk and roots music you can hear at The Ark throughout the year. The Folk Festival presents the rare opportunity to hear many artists that are undiscovered—there’s always one breakout that leaves Ann Arbor and the whole folk music community talking for months—on the same bill with a few stars at the very top of their careers. The two evenings of the Festival each run between four and five hours during which an eclectic mix of 9 to 11 groups or solo artists take the stage.
Past performers: Indigo Girls, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Glengarry Bhoys, Vienna Teng, Martyn Joseph, Steppin’ In It, Jeremy KKeb’ Mo’, Richard Thompson, King Wilkie, Kruger Brothers, David Jones, Richard Shindell, Lynn Miles, George Bedard & The Kingpins, and the Whit Hill Band.
