folk on the rocks 2009 line-up

Now I didn't go to the trade show this weekend -- although suggestions to attend the annual event permeated nearly every conversation I had the past two days -- and so I'm not particularly sure what FOTR's booth looked like and whether they were announcing any performers.

However, a little conversation with me ma got me wondering who would be coming North to swat mosquitos in the sand from July 17 - 19 this year and a little google sleuthing got me these:

Sam Roberts Band
Oh yes! After months and months of prodding a friend who is involved with the festival, she finally told me about an hour before it was annouced at the Elliott Brood show in April.

Royal Wood
I can't wait to see this guy. Stumbled upon "I'm so glad" a couple months ago on a CBC Radio 3 podcast and am so glad I did. This has been announced on the festival's website.

T. Nile (with Joanna Chapman-Smith)
(FOTR weekend is listed on T. Nile's myspace page and Chapman-Smith's website)

Kobo Town
They have been announced on the festival's website.

Forest City Lovers

SWANK
They have been announced on the festival's website.
