The Second Annual Honesdale Roots and Rhythm Music and Arts Festival takes place on June 23rd in Eastern Pennsylvania. I have to admit that the title of the fest is a mouthful:-D It looks like it is mostly local and regional bands, but Little Ed and the Imperials are headlining the gig, and they are worth the trip. Little Ed is a throwback to old time Chicago blues, and he puts on quite the show. I was lucky to have seen him in Kansas City just after he had released his LP (yup it was vinyl back then:-) Chicken And Biscuits. It was a heck of a show, and he actually played for another hour, because the crowd wouldn't go home! Here is the lineup for the Honesdale fest from their website. For more info CLICK HERE.
