Last weekend, on October 7 and 8, at the Ford in LA â the natural amphitheater nestled between Hollywood and the Valley, just across the 101 from the Hollywood Bowl â echoed the sounds of guitars and vocal harmonies, the acoustic reverberations of the First Annual Los Angeles Folk Festival.
Sundayâs lineup consisted of Willie Watson, Charlie Hickey, Haley Heynderickx, John C. Reilly, the Milk Carton Kids, BGSâ own Ed Helms, and Waxahatchee. See select photos by Jim Brock Photography from October 8 at the Los Angeles Folk Festival below, and make plans to attend the LAFF next year!
