Sweet
sounds of mandolins and vocal harmonies emanated
from Reservoir Hill last weekend as Pagosa Springs
hosted the ninth annual Four Corners Folk Festival.
Despite Saturday’s soul-sogging downpours and ankle
deep mud, the spirits of folk fans and festival campers
couldn’t be diminished. Music enthusiasts of all
ages
soaked up the sights and sounds of some of the top folk
musicians on tour. The clouds parted on Sunday and the
drying rays of sunshine warmed the festival grounds,
welcoming
among others, Drew Emmitt & Freedom Ride,
The Bills, the John Cowan Band and Tim O’Brien.

instrument of
choice.
