California WorldFest, July 11-14, 2013 Nevada County Fairgrounds, Grass Valley, CA

The 17th annual California WorldFest took place July 11-14, 2013 on eight stages - and lawns - at the tall-tree-laden Nevada County Fairgrounds in Grass Valley, CA. As always, established nationally acclaimed players such as Bruce Hornsby, Pink Martini, and Bruce Cockburn mixed with younger alternative acts like Delhi 2 Dublin, Brothers Comatose, and the Leftover Cuties as well as relatively unknown world players (to U.S. audiences), such as Vieux Fark Toure, Badi Assad, and Yemen Blues. The festival grounds, including its wooded campgrounds, were home to several thousand attendees drawn by the bohemian yet family-friendly vibe, who converged to watch, listen, dance, camp, share food and spirit, and to celebrate songs and cultures from all over the world. For the 12th year in a row, I was the staff photographer and my wife, Donna, was manager of the fest's large Marketplace merchandise store. For more info for next year, check www.worldfest.net.
