    2009 PERFORMERS
    We are pleased to announce a major portion of the line up for the 2009 Spring Gulch Folk Festival, to take place at the Spring Gulch Resort Campground, New Holland, Pennsylvania from May 14, 2009 through May 17, 2009.

    Festival favorite MIKE CROSS will appear on the Saturday night program and will return Sunday afternoon for a kids/family show. We are extremely pleased to have Mike available for this "double-dip." This year will also feature the return of the DEBBIE DAVIES BLUES BAND, an act which tore the place up several years ago. MUSTARD'S RETREAT, a talented duo from Michigan, will grace our stage once again, and these folks are always a welcome addition to the numerous folk festivals they play.

    Festival attendees will recall PAT WICTOR'S slide guitar workshop and brief set on the main stage two years ago. In response to numerous requests, this talented singer songwriter will return for a set on Friday evening. He will be joined Friday night by popular Canadian singer-songwriter JAMES KEELAGHAN.

    Those making their first Spring Gulch Folk Festival appearance include SONIA, of Disappear Fear, SIERRA HULL & HIGHWAY 111 and CJ CHENIER & THE RED HOT LOUISIANA BAND. SONIA is well known for her vivacious stage performance and insightful material. SIERRA HULL is a 16 year old protégée of Alison Krauss and is already one of the premier bluegrass mandolin players touring the country. CJ CHENIER & THE RED HOT LOUISIANA BAND has for years been one of the foremost Zydeco-Cajun acts on the national touring front, and we are pleased to be able to present them.

    The latest additions to the 2009 lineup include the raucous young band, Hoots & Hellmouth, Shannon Lamber-Ryan & Runa, Terri Hendrix, Bob Franke and Canadian singer-songwriter duo Dala. Finally, we will be honored to have with us Grammy-winning Nashville artists, The Whites, a trio known for their terrific harmonies and screenwork in the film Oh Brother, Where Art Thou.

    Check out the websites, My Space and You Tube pages for these artists for a preview for a preview of our 2009 event.
