“This Land Is Your Land”: Jesse Welles, Warren Haynes, Daniel Donato, Grahame Lesh, Margo Price and More Highlight Hudson River Music Festival
Jesse Welles brought Croton-on-Hudson’s second-annual Hudson River Music Festival to a close last night, inviting out most of the event’s marquee performers for a sing-along version of Woody Guthrie’s “This Land Is Your Land.” It was a fitting end to the environmentally conscious gathering, which grew out of the Clearwater/Great Hudson River Revival Festival Guthrie’s contemporary Pete Seeger hosted on the same site for decades in an effort to cleanup the adjacent Hudson River.
