Newport 2010: Hear it and See it

Preservation Hall at Newport

Whether you were in Newport for the folk festival this weekend or not, you can get the full vibe through the wonder of the interwebs.

Link through from the artist list on the right for archived live sets (thanks to our friends at NPR Music):

Some of my highlights that you can listen to online - Preservation Hall Jazz Band (with Andrew Bird, Cory Chisel, Daniel Martin Moore and some damn fine work from Jim James); The solo Yim Yames set; John Prine; Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons; The Swell Season; Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings; Nneka; and a new one for me - Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, which was a madhouse of fun.
