Feel the love
The family traveled from McLean, Virginia, because even with a newborn, it was tough to skip out on the love, the music and the magic that is the Newport Folk Festival for another year.
“It’s folk fest,” Brunett said with a smile. “Feel the love and the music,” she said, holding her little girl as her 2-year-old son Lochlan ran in the grass behind her. “It’s super family-friendly.”
Ron Hostetter, 74, of St. Louis, Missouri, wore round yellow-tinted shades. His aesthetic could have blended right into the folk festivals of yesteryear.
Hostetter hasn’t been attending since quite that early (the first Newport Folk Festival was in 1959). Instead, he hopped on the folk fan train in 2013, though he worked as a vendor for a few years before he started to attend as a fan.
