And with that, it’s a wrap on The Edmonton Folk Music Festival 2025. Excellent work by the organizers, given some bumps, that’s 46 years of music making in the books. #efmf #yeg

Mt. Joy rounded out the evening in the most Folk Fest way… in the pouring rain.

My socks my be soggy, but that’s okay. #efmf #yeg

Richy Mitch & the Coal Miners were fantastic. Was fun to see the duet with Jesse Welles!

Then John Butler, all the way from Australia, stunned the audience. He’s such a talented guitarist! #efmf #yeg

Okay so I’m officially a Jesse Welles fan. His lyrics are absolutely top notch on point. Totally worth the risk in a brief thunderstorm! 🌩️

Go find his music wherever you consume music. #efmf #yeg

Day FOUR on the hill with Tallisk from Scotland! It was a Celtic party! #efmf #yeg
Went to the top of the hill last night to catch #TheRoots at the #efmf They were AMAZING!!!’
Holy moly, what an evening. Danielle Ponder with an INCREDIBLE voice and then The Roots blew the imaginary roof off the festival with a next level party. #efmf #yeg
I expected The Roots to be good, I just didn’t expect it to be THAT good. Seamless remixing of some of the best music you’ve ever heard with an enormous amount of musicians at the peak of their craft playing non-stop for an hour and a half. I’m floored. I will remember this until the day I die.

Goldie Boutilier killing it as usual. Every time we see her she just gets better and better. So excited to see her success! #efmf #yeg
Evening light from the tip top of the hill as Taj Mahal plays. #EFMF #yeg #Edmonton
