Iggy and I enjoyed a diverse line-up of singers and musicians at the Lowell Folk Festival yesterday:
* Le Vent du Nord - traditional Quebec music (listen to excerpts)
* Panygiri - Greek music
* Hayden Thompson & the Rhythm Rockets - rockabilly - Not only does HT sound somewhat like Johnny Cash, but he sings some of his songs
* Kekele - Congolese rumba, reviewed in The Boston Globe
I was particularly taken with the music of Le Vent du Nord. Maybe it was my recent sojourn in Quebec or the enthusiasm with which the group got 50 people line dancing in front of the stage or maybe it was that cute Benoit Bourque (are you jealous, Iggy?)
Ahem. Were you and Iggy line dancing too??????????????????????????????????????

Simon’s photo isn’t bad.
We danced at Kekele. I had to drag Iggy onto the floor, but it was very hot.
