Festival Tracking: Newport Folk Festival

Why You Should Go: Newport Folk is an American music tradition at this point, but it's hardly just for the family-friendly // Dylan-crooning set. Over the course of three days, musicians that redefine "folk" in every fashion from the soulful belts of Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings to the hard-rocking ways of Jack White descend upon Fort Adams and let their music waft across the sail boat-speckled Narragansett Bay. It's scenic, it's chill and it's a great excuse to eat lobster rolls for an entire weekend while rediscovering an appreciation for banjos.
Flowerchild Look: What screams Folk more than... Fringe, floppy hats, flower crowns and booties! Special thanks to photographer, Marcos Contreras and stylist, Reyna Cazares of Beverly Road Blog.
