Lots of action in Deep Ellum this weekend! This week we’ve got three pretty diverse picks for you – ranging from folk to hip hop, and all the way to indie pop.
Where are you headed this weekend?
Deep Ellum Big Folkin’ Festival 2012 at The Prophet Bar
Support: Mmm, lots. Ryan Thomas Becker, Parallel Play, Whiskey Folk Ramblers, Telegraph Canyon, One Red Cent, Bravo, Max!, The Roomsounds, The O’s, Kirby Brown, and many, many more!
Date: Saturday, March 31, 2012
Doors: 5:00pm
Tickets: Advance $12 | Day of Show $15
Why: Started by Parralel Play’s Jeremy Drake and The Prophet Bar’s Joel Fruth, the first ever Deep Ellum Big Folkin’ Festival will 30 folk bands spread across five stages. If you’re even a small folk music fan, this is for you. Plus if you buy your ticket now, it’s only $12, which in this blogger’s opinion is a hell of a steal.
