Festival of Friends

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy performs tonight at The Festival at Sandpoint. Their latest album is a tribute to Cab Calloway; their shows feature plenty of exuberant Calloway-style showmanship.

The Festival at Sandpoint greets some old friends over the next two weeks: Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Keb’ Mo’, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Natalie MacMaster.

That’s a lot of old friends, but when you’ve been around for 28 summers, you can draw from a wide and deep circle.

All of those acts have previously appeared on the shores of Lake Pend Oreille; all of them have wowed the festival’s picnic-blanket crowds on starry summer nights. Jim Kershner, SR. Full story

Have you attended the Festival at Sandpoint? Are you going this year?
