I braved the torrential downpour to head down to the folk festival to hear some great music on the muddy beach.

I was surprised by the healthy turnout in the dreadful weather.

I managed to catch one of the brief windows in the afternoon sans rain.

I'd never been to the fest before and went thanks to V.I.A.'s media sponsorship of the festivities.

I wandered around from the many stages soaking in the vibrant music and eclectic sounds despite the extreme wetness.

It was a super diverse crowd with many families and fans young and old.

I really dug the mixture of people and music.

Thankfully, I got to catch the musical workshop of Joel Plaskett, Elliott BROOD, and The Fugitives on stage 4.

Also, I managed to stay relatively dry.

I was hooked by Plaskett's first song, "True Patriot Love".

The three switched back and forth between each other, playing enjoyable low-key sets. I must admit, it was pretty wicked.

Despite the terrible weather, everyone was having a good time and enjoying the music.

I didn't stay long, but I had a really good time at my very first folk festival.
