Kate Wolf Festival

Despite growing up in the same city and being the same age (although she's aged better than I), it wasn't until yesterday at the Kate Wolf Festival in northern California that I met singer/songwriter Laura Love. I had finished my set and was hanging around to hear Richie Havens who I worked with about 15 years ago. From the stage I heard Laura mention her Nebraska roots. I caught about half of her very entertaining set and we chatted afterward. Very strange that our paths had never crossed until now. She was playing with a banjo player named Danny Barnes who I've been a fan of for some time. Danny is a wonderful artist who has been in a number of bands that I like. Also performing at the festival were my friends, Lowen & Navarro, who sang background vocals for me on the new CD (on "Paperboy"), and Kenny Edwards, who I hope to do some shows with in the near future. It was a great experience with thousands of people all having a wonderful time camping, celebrating life and enjoying music in a beautiful setting. Hope to make it back next year! -BC
