The Gamble Rogers Folk Festival has celebrated the life and musical legacy of Gamble Rogers, for more than 27 years. The 28th Annual Gamble Rogers Folk Festival, featuring more than 100 performers on four stages over three days, takes place April 12-14 at the St. Johns County Fairgrounds, 5840 State Road 207, in Elkton.
Featuring a balanced blend of seasoned and up-and-coming performers is a hallmark of the Gamble Rogers Folk Festival. Festival headliners include AJ Lee & Blue Summit and the John Jorgenson Quintet, with supporting acts Verlon Thompson, Jerron “Blind Boy” Paxton, Remedy Tree, The Krickets, Red & Christopher Henry & their All-Star Band, and Wyatt Ellis.
One of the highlights of the Gamble Rogers Folk Festival is The YoungFolk Stage, where a new generation of musicians have an opportunity to perform on a nationally-recognized professional stage. These up-and-coming performers are 19 years and younger, showing that the folk music tradition is for all ages. Supporting headliner and mandolin prodigy Wyatt Ellis will be a YoungFolk Stage highlight performance.
