The lineup for the second National Folk Festival http://www.nationalfolkfestival.com/2009/ taking place in "Butte, America" July 10-12 stars about 250 singers, dancers and other artists, along with hoofed performers from all over Montana.
The three-day multicultural event, which is riding with a theme of Western horse culture, is expected to bring about 150,000 visitors – double the number visiting last year – to the old mining centre nestled near the mountains of the Continental Divide. Plateau, Appaloosa and other Montana-bred horses will also be in attendance to prance in a parade and participate in arena demonstrations, from trick roping to draft-team driving.
