The focus of the festival is on local performers but
there are usually a few acts from away each year.
Irish acts might be able to also play the
Feile Seamus Creagh, which is held the weekend
before the NL Folk Festival. The website for
that is
http://www.feileseamuscreagh.com/ and
the artistic director is Graham Wells, who is
currently doing a Master's in musical performance
at the University of Limerick.
Last year the Raw Bar Collective played both
festivals.
