Thursday took the stage 5th on Friday at the Uptown Theater, another incredible punk/emo act that we all know and love on the Twenty Years of Tears tour. Playing directly after Anberlin and before Hawthorne Heights, this band truly threw their energy into the entire performance, per usual.
We got up close and personal for an evening we just absolutely cannot believe happened.

Day one at Newport Folk Festival 2024 was an absolute whirlwind. There were almost too many amazing sets to photograph, and not enough time. Performers included Billie Marten, Petey, Sir Woman, and Wednesday that Friday. Eric Tsurumoto grabbed some quick pics of them all.
Award-winning musicians Madison Cunningham and Andrew Bird have taken their mass of individual talents and teamed up to form the folk power duo of Cunningham & Bird. They have been taking the festival circuit together, bringing a sense of calm and power to each set. Eric Tsurumoto captured some of their magic.
Minneapolis-based guitarist, songwriter, and producer Cory Wong entertained the masses on day three at Newport Folk Festival 2024. The musician takes to a variety of genres quite well, blending aspects from soul, folk, R&B, jazz, and more to bring a funky, community feel to his performance. Eric Tsurumoto captured the energy of this performance perfectly.
If you have ever had the pleasure of seeing Brittany Howard perform live, then you surely understand the meaning of the word “enchanted.” Witnessing her live performance is like heaven itself, and it was no different on day three of the Newport Folk Festival. Eric Tsurumoto got us some highlights, below.
American rock outfit The War On Drugs took the stage at Newport Folk Festival on day 2 to an excited audience. The band seemed to really appreciate their circumstance while they began the set, an appreciation that almost rippled through the crowd as well. Eric Tsurumoto caught some highlights for us.
