Walnut Valley Festival (Winfield 2008)

Winfield is an experience. Usually when we talk about Winfield we refer to the Walnut Valley Festival held in Winfield Kansas the third weekend of every September since 1972. The Festival features acoustic music of all kinds: folk, country, and of course bluegrass. The performers appear on Thursday through Sunday on four stages, so that there's always something for every taste. But the experience is a lot more fun than the stage shows...

If you cannot make it to Winfield this year, consider tuning into Front Porch Radio to listen to live music from Winfield (during specific hours, see their site) and recordings from Winfield when The Group Therapy Stage is closed. This is a volunteer effort by a few friends of mine based here in Kansas City. Check it out.

If you are at Winfield and want to have your performance recorded or broadcast, then visit the Front Porch Radio Campsite. It is behind the Group Therapy and Cabin Fever campsites, up against the river. Their plans are to have an open mic from 1:PM to 5:PM each afternoon.
