Northwest Folk Music Concert Calendar
(Seattle and Eastside)
by Richard Gillmann

October 20, 2026

Folk music concerts in Seattle, the Eastside and nearby areas.

I was the host of "The Real Folk" on 91.3fm KBCS in Bellevue. The last ten episodes of The Real Folk are still available as podcasts from MixCloud.

What is folk music? To me, it's acoustic music with an emphasis on traditional music, songwriting and storytelling, plus music from various cultures. Genres include contemporary singer/songwriter, bluegrass, old-time, Celtic, blues, roots, Americana, and more.

This calendar is scraped from the websites of local presenters and venues. Calendar entries cannot be submitted directly, only by the presenters and venues themselves when they post them on their calendars.

Some venues don't have online calendars, or have ones that are too difficult to scrape. I include as many as I can. Comments?

The Triple Door presents Taylor Rae, Lemongrass

The Triple Door presents Taylor Rae, Lemongrass at The Rabbit BoxTaylor Rae spent years touring behind Mad Twenties, the career-launching debut album that spent more than 30 weeks on the Americana Radio charts. While the album's lead single, "Home on the Road," climbed into the Top 10, Rae kept the pedal glued to the metal, driving herself from show to show, watching America unfold outside the car windshield. Taylor Rae and Sam Hodgson created Lemongrass, a refreshing iteration of the classic Folk Duo. Drawing from the tradition of The Avett Brothers, Shakey Graves, and Mumford & Sons, the duo harmonizes while playing percussion, using kick drum and tambourine.Thursday, Oct. 29th // Doors 6:30pm // Show 7:30pm

Royal Oakie Records showcase featuring Eric Silverman, Sam Plecker, & Abbey Blackwell

Royal Oakie Records showcase featuring performances from Eric Silverman, Sam Plecker, and Abbey BlackwellWednesday, Nov. 4th // Doors 7:30pm // Music 8:30pmBitter Honey is the new album by Eric Silverman, releasing May 29th 2026 on Royal Oakie Records. Produced in collaboration with Damien Lewis, the album finds Silverman leaving behind the acid-fried desert rock of 2023’s Stay In It for something far more lush and expansive–a collection of ten psychedelic rock, pop, and folk tracks inspired by Peter Gabriel, John Cale, and Jeff Tweedy. Fittingly, the album is named after the “mad honey” of the rhododendron flower, a rare and potent hallucinogenic found high in the Himalayas.GA Seated

Kalos CD Release concert at Fremont Abbey

As a fiddler, composer, singer, songwriter, visual artist, and community builder Hayden Stern has taken Seattle’s roots music scene by storm. Stern draws freely from multiple traditions, expanding his original base of Scottish fiddling to Irish, Scandinavian, French-Canadian, Appalachian, and beyond. But for his upcoming album, The Morning Dark, he’s focusing on composing tunes himself, bringing his roving ear and keen focus on arranging to a live performance built to rouse everyone to dance. The interaction between performer and audience is what drives Stern, and he’s developed his skills as a performer for concert audiences and dancehalls alike...

While Hildaland currently call New England home, they maintain a strong connection to the music scene in Glasgow. “We have been lucky to be able to travel back to Scotland fairly often in the past couple of years and plan to continue doing so. We often find ourselves in the Glasgow pubs playing Scottish, Irish, Scandinavian, and even old-time with friends old and new,” says Bichan...

The Lowest Pair

The Lowest Pair

The Lowest Pair has questions. The duo, made up of Kendl Winter and Palmer T. Lee, know that we tend to see duality as a problem. We want life to be linear, working through the dark to finally get to the light. Grief to joy, despair to hope, confusion to clarity--not a jangly cycle we can't escape. But through their incandescent folk songs, the Lowest Pair often ask: What if we sit with the mess? What if that's not just more peaceful, but more magical, too?

Winter’s Return (Pint & Dale, Opland & Freeman)

Winter’s Return (Pint & Dale, Opland & Freeman)

Tania Opland and Mike Freeman have been dividing their time between North America and Europe for over 25 years with a multi-cultural repertoire featuring hammered dulcimer, violin, Native American flute, cittern, recorder, guitar, hurdy-gurdy, percussion, and recently even a bit of clarseach (medieval Irish wire-strung harp). Mike’s irreverent sense of humour and Tania’s stunning vocals provide the springboard for a rollercoaster ride across several continents and back again. They have recorded eight albums between them (including two collaborations with best-selling author Anne McCaffrey), and make numerous appearances as studio musicians on other recordings in the U.S., U.K., Ireland, and Canada.
