The 2011 Mariposa Folk Festival is almost here! Here's a taste of Yukon Blonde

    With this being the week of the 2011 Mariposa Folk Festival I thought I would share some of the artists that I’m really looking forward to seeing this year. The Yukon blonde have taken the Canadian music scene by storm with their relentless touring and their self titled debut record. 




Here’s a live taste of Yukon Blonde performing at last month’s Sound of Music Festival.

Here are the approx times Yukon Blonde are playing the festival:

Friday 6:15pm Mariposa Mainstage , Saturday 1:45pm Mariposa Pub, Saturday 11:00pm Mariposa Pub

This year’s Mariposa Folk Festival takes place July 8-10, Orillia, Ontario. This year’s line-up includes Emmylou Harris, Josh Ritter and the Royal City Band, Peter Yarrow, Lunch at Allen’s, John McDermott, Ron Hynes, Garnet Rogers, Adonis Puentes and many more on eleven stages throughout the beautiful Tudhope Park on the shores of Lake Couchiching.

There will be Audience camping available at nearby Burl’s Creek Family Event Park
