Welcome to the Magnoliafest Gallery Click below to go to some pictures from recent Magnoliafest events in Live Oak florida. This is one of my favorite festivals in all of the US and I try not to miss them when I can.
Magfest takes place in October every year and its sister festival Springfest takes place each March and so they bookend the festival season beautifully. I will have a lot more pictures from this festival and podcasts in the run up to the next event |

 Signature Sounds recording artist Crooked Still will release their highly anticipated third album on June 24th, titled Still Crooked. A world tour to support the record will follow. The band, made up of founding members Aoife O'Donovan, Greg Liszt and Corey DiMario, along with two new players, presents fluidity across musical genres: old time, folk, bluegrass and world music, on all of their recordings. Journalist Greil Marcus recently recognized the worldliness of their capability in Interview Magazine, "The songs to which Crooked Still applies itself were made to capture whole countries of experience, fantasy, forgetting, revenge, guilt and escape...The band takes up the songs as if they contain knowledge far beyond any person who might sing them."
