    "Great fest"

    "I always enjoy JL. but this year I was so laid back by the wonderful experience i had to comment! I couldn't believe that none of my friends or acquaintances ever want to join us to travel the 40 minutes it takes us to reach Ginnosar and enter another world! Of course it all was brilliant if not a little overwhelming to watch and hear so many wonderful musicians and singers on such a short time we were only Friday and Saturday but saw 17 concerts! can it get any better?"

  • "A real community"
    "A real community"

    "Thank you! We loved being part of the JL community this weekend. Red Meadow was wonderful, SheRock really had us partying and Lilac and company gave a great performance. Sean Altman's comical songs were a great addition. The basket weaving was great and my 11 year old spent hours there. The woman who ran it made the kids feel at home and I 'm sure he would spend the two days with her again if she returned."

I especially Loved the new young Talent we got to see Such as Jason Feddy and Just Married, both were so fun to watch and listen to. Sweet Mamma Cotton was incredible. What a voice, Also Dorit who did something for the kids on the Lawn Stage was incredible, and my kids had the time of their lives, as did we... THANKS SO MUCH!!! DAVID"
