San Diego has enjoyed the Adams Avenue Roots Festival for several years now. It occurs over a weekend in April. I have appended the website information for those who might be interested (west coasters take note). This is not a commercial enterprise but a cooperative local effort to provide all forms of roots and folk performers in multiple venues, indoor and out.
