In 2017 Roger Waters took to the stage with American Singer Songwriter John Prine, Newport Folk Festival has a 60-year history of giving artists a place to play, collaborate, and speak to the times. It has been a megaphone for not one singular voice, but many.
Saddly in April 2020 John very saddly passed away due to the effects of the current world Covid-19 Pandemic.
Through the wonders of technology and live streaming and although this year there is no physical stage, the spirit of the Newport Folk Fest continues on through a film called Our Voices Together which is a collection of original performances and an ending Newport fans expect each year: A moment of togetherness. Which has been put together by Josh Coleman.
You can watch Roger’s Performance which features the dashingly beautiful and talented Lucius, Which i am sure many of you will be familiar with as a permanent member of the Roger Waters Touring band since 2016.
The Film itself is available to watch online for a limited time only by clicking this link
