Folk Music Virginia

I’m looking for a small music venue in (or somewhere ’round-about) Arlington, Virginia?
I’m in a two piece band from New York. We play a kind of acoustic psychedelic folk rock & roll. We are trying to put together our first tour and we’re looking for a small venue with a built-in crowd such as a coffeehouse that features live music (ideally filled strange open-minded attractive people who love psychedelic folk music). www.myspace.com/holysoviets

Big Iron World $8.03 A concept album about gigantic household appliances taking over the world? No such luck. As the images of Hank Williams, Bob Dylan and Sun-era Elvis floating in the background might indicate, this Nashville band is strictly old school, singing about unemployed riverboat workers, covering Woody Guthrie and plucking banjos like there was no tomorrow. Produced by David Rawlings, Big Iron World boasts… |

Do modern people listen to folk music?
If so what kind of people are they? I’m intrigued, met a 28Yr old modern girl who is into Folk music, 60′s and 70′s, smokes Golden Virginia and drinks Beer……I don’t know anyone else her age who is into this.
Thank you for all your answers, but do these type of people fall into a particular type; ie hippie?
Well, if you met someone who does obviously people do.
I personal LOVE folk metal! I firmly believe one has not lived until one has seen a band with shredding electric guitars, accordion, bagpipes, and/or hurdy gurdy.(Maybe tin whistle, Djembe, Morin Huur)
I’m older than she but, yes where I live there are several huge folk fests in the summer-3 with Celtic Music and the other is The Philadelphia Folk Festival. There are always lots of people this woman’s age in attendance. Most of them smoke something a bit left handed, and yes enough beer to fill a small ocean.
Frank George, West Virginia State Folk Festival, 2008
