Francisca Valenzuela

Friday at 2:30 has two good bands playing that need no introduction so pick which you like. We saw Old Crow Medicine Show recently and they put on a great show. Bluegrass, punk-folk, mountain music, whatever you want to call it.

Delta Spirit is well-known. The other band playing is an LA group called Fool's Gold. Very jam-band oriented, they kind of remind me of Talking Heads during their Remain in Light years. But not as good. KCRW likes them so maybe I'm wrong.

My choice at 3:00 at the small tent stage is Francisca Valenzuela from Santiago, Chile. Born in San Francisco to Chilean parents, she moved back at age 12. She was at SXSW but we didn't get to see her. Luckily for us, she's back. I'll be there.
