The Festival in the Park kicks off tomorrow (Thursday) at Freedom Park in Charlotte, for the 45th year in a row, and there will be lots of live music there. I just wanted to highlight the performers who are NSAI members or who have some association with NSAI. All of them will be performing on the Charlotte Folk Society or the Theatre stage. A map of the festival showing the locations of each stage can be found on the festival’s website at www.festivalinthepark.org.
