The Newport Folk Festival is an American annual folk-oriented music festival in Newport, Rhode Island, which began in 1959.The Newport Folk Festival was founded in 1959 by George Wein, founder of the already-well-established "Newport Jazz Festival".
The Festival is renowned for introducing a number of performers who went on to become major stars, most notably Joan Baez (who appeared as an unannounced guest of Bob Gibson in 1959), and Bob Dylan, whose first Newport appearance, as a guest of Joan Baez in 1963 having she had made it into the 'Big-time' as to put it.
A significant feature of one the festival billings was that of the joint performance of Bob Dylan with Joan Baez in 1963. In which the pair performed a few songs compaining for the civil rights of many of America's people.
This ties in with my production piece artist as the festival is associated to her genre of music of course being folk. One of her regarded artists of course was discovered at this gig, Joan Baez. Who has inspired the works of Mayenna Plastow-Smed through her lyrics.
