The Folk Singer DVD/CD set (import) now available in the U.S. through Muddy Roots Music. Go to the online store to get your copy today!

The Folk Singer - A Tale of Men, Music & America is a journey into the souls of men, maverick roots music and the dying old America. The film follows folk blues singer Jon Konrad a.k.a. Possessed by Paul James on tour from Texas to Louisiana as he attempts to make enough money to supply for his unborn child. On his journey he crosses paths with musical peers, honky tonk propietors and religious mavericks. Together they explore their struggles, doubts, hopes and demons or as Jon's friend Scott Biram puts it:
„We can rejoice in one another's sharing of pain!“

The Folk Singer juxtaposes raw human emotion, slapstick humour and wild American roots Music.

 

 

Car Show hosted by the Voodoo Kingz

There is one main rule that should be kept in mind the at all times:

"Don't be a dick."

Before doing anything please ask yourself if what you are about to do is something a dick would do. If so, kindly stop. That could mean sneaking in, stealing anything, driving drunk, being rude to performers and well you get the point. (Anybody caught sneaking people in will get the whole car load kicked out. No tolerance for stealing from your favorite fesitval and bands.)

Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle

Just say NO to trash by choosing reusables over disposables. Reducing and reusing before recycling? Choose and reuse refillable water bottles/canteens instead of single-use bottles; classic coolers instead of Styrofoam boxes; and sturdy cups, plates, and cutlery instead of disposable tableware.

 Remember that littering includes everything from the biggest cups and cans to the smallest bottle caps and cigarette butts. Don’t forget an ashtray for your campsite; a good ol’ tin can will do the job. Smoking while walking? Just safely snuff your cigarette THEN toss into a trash can. No butts about it!

Clean up your campsite. Campin’ and conservin’? Leave your campsite cleaner than you found it. It’s that simple!

Leave your glass at home. It’s heavy, it breaks, and it’s a general pain in our recycling rears.

 

Miscellaneous
