Behind the Scenes at Newport Folk Festival 2011
This year's Newport Folk Festival broke all records in terms of ticket sales, fueled by an incredible line-up of traditional talents and young up and comers. GoLocalProv's Avery Stone spoke behind the scenes to four hot young acts: Rhode Island's own John McCauley, front man of Deer Tick and part of Middle Brother; Amelia Meath of Mountain Man; Tegan Quin of Tegan & Sara; and Joy Williams and John Paul White, also known as The Civil Wars. Hear what they had to say about playing the historic festival.
