The Winnipeg Folk Festival has added six additional acts who will perform at this year’s event, scheduled for July 10-13.
The new artists are Peach Pit, The Lone Bellow, Jeffrey Martin, Dengue Fever, The Black Sea Station, SAND, and VÍÍK.
“We believe this year’s lineup truly embodies what the festival has always been about—discovering diverse indie artists from home and around the world,” said Chris Frayer, artistic director, in a release.
“We always add a few bands after the initial lineup announcement to round out the music and bring in as many diverse genres and artists as possible. We’re excited about these new additions and the overall lineup. We can’t wait for our folkies to enjoy them in July.”
Organizers announced the full festival lineup for the 50th annual edition of Folk Fest earlier this month.
