7 Folk And Country Shows To Catch At Northside Festival 2016
It’s finally here! Thursday marks the kick off of Northside Festival’s music portion, and thanks to the hard work of everyone involved with the festival, there are so many excellent shows to attend that I’ve separated previews out by genre to help Brooklynites parse the extensive schedules. For those who associate Northside Fest mostly with indie rock, yes, that has traditionally been the bedrock of the booking. But, hey, Kacey Musgraves is one of the festival’s headliners, and there’s also plenty of folk and country to be found for those who are willing to dig below the surface. Here are some other rootsy acts to catch while you’re out and about this week.
