Bill is a long-running volunteer at the festival, often hosting one of the artists during the weekend to get them to where they need to be. Here's what he said about the show, "Wow, it’s been 20 years since the first Richmond Folk Festival, and we’re celebrating this wonderful milestone with a preview of many artists who will be appearing during the weekend of Sept. 27-29. Enjoy this super-eclectic mix … and be sure to mark your calendar to attend the festival in person!"
