Country, bluegrass and a little rock-and-roll fill the streets of Johnstown every Labor Day weekend.

The Johnstown Folk Festival is one of the largest free music festivals in the country, and the end of summer bash draws people from all over the state.

"I grew up in Ebensburg but I'm from Baltimore now and the music is what got me here. The Recipe ... play a lot of shows down near Baltimore and (there are) some of the bands from New Orleans that I was interested in seeing, tool," said one festival attendee.
