This came out nice. It was recorded from my usual Folk Fest perch, between the camera guy and the lightpost on our right side, at the back of the front section of grass. This was another energetic set - solid party vibe for a Saturday night. They are considered "Mardi Gras Indian music." I can't find much about these guys, so song titles were mostly unknown to me. I took a bunch of cell phone photos, and included the best of them. I recorded a lot of the Lowell Folk Festival throughout the weekend, and I'll get to the sets as I can.

Enjoy
