The first day of Forecastle Festival in Louisville offered on and off drizzle and some of the coolest temps one could ever expect to have in July in Kentucky — and it offered some tremendous performances in a glorious setting.
I’ll have more to say about the festival in an upcoming post, and I will have a lot more photos too, including full sets of The Black Lips, Against Me!, Twenty One Pilots, and Outkast.
In addition to those performers, I also caught all or part of energetic, well-attended, great-sounding sets by Benjamin Booker, Foy Vance, Willie Watson, Local Natives, and St. Lucia.
So this is just a sampling of photos from day one.
