First Aid Kit | Countdown to the Newport Folk Festival: 18 Days!

Plucked from our video collection, here’s a beautiful, stripped down version of “Ghost Town” by First Aid Kit from their show at Union Transfer in Philadelphia, PA on March 31, 2012. First Aid Kit will be performing at the Newport Folk Festival on Saturday, July 28 and at the sold out show with Conor Oberst and Dawes at Jane Pickens Theater in Newport, RI on Friday, July 27. The SisDiss sisters are looking forward to seeing the Söderberg sisters, Klara and Johanna, perform!

Wilco | Countdown to the 2012 Newport Folk Festival: 20 days!

Sisters Dissonance has begun ticking the days off the calendar—21 (twenty one!) days and counting until the much anticipated Newport Folk Festival begins (20 if you count Wilco’s Friday show as the kick off).

We can’t wait, and to help us cope with the days between now and then we will be sharing photos and video from the Sisters Dissonance archives—some of which that have never been shared before—of many of the performers who are included on the 2012 Newport Folk Festival schedule.

Countdown! T-minus 20 Days!
