Don’t put that folding chair away just yet!

Ready to lay down the best of local acoustic and electric blues are the Back Seat Drivers, Mojo Rockers, Buddy Reed and the Rip It Ups, Jim Lahman Band, The Uptown Kings and Black Sage Runners. Besides great live music and room to move, there’ll be plenty of local beer and wine on tap and food available. Enjoy a day full of live music and help support the Humboldt Folklife Society.
