Riverfest Elora 2023: A compendium of posts - Concert Photos

Riverfest Elora is my favourite summer music festival. It combines artists I love with new artists that I've never heard of that find a permanent spot in my music library. The vibe of the festival is chill and inviting, friendly and fun.

The 2023 edition of the festival is also their lucky 13th festival, and my sixth. And there wasn't a drop of rain during the festival!

Thanks to the Riverfest Elora team for curating and orchestrating an amazing weekend of music, fun, food and friends. And, of course, for granting me access to capture the images of the festival performers.

Riverfest Elora 2023: Mobley in the Koop Tent - Concert Photos

I don't think I've ever witnessed a performer with a TV set on their head. There's a first time for everything, they say, and this performance by Mobley was that first. 

His tunes are widely varied and powerful with him jumping from keyboard to guitar to drums to playing the hands of the front-row audience. It was a creative and intense performance that got everyone in the Riverfest Elora Koop Tent moving. Great stuff!
