The Newfoundland & Labrador Folk Arts Society (NLFAS) is a charitable organization located in St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada whose mandate is to celebrate, preserve, and promote the traditional and contemporary folk arts of our province at home and away, through public outreach and events, including our annual Folk Festival.
Active since 1966, the organization presents educational and cultural events that provide artists with the opportunity to showcase their work and that engage our youth and the general public in the transmission of our intangible cultural heritage.
Our two longest running events, Folk Night at the Ship Pub and the Annual Newfoundland & Labrador Folk Festival are rites of passage for up and coming folk and traditional musicians, and beloved by seasoned performers.
The Newfoundland & Labrador Folk Arts Society thanks our sponsors who help make the Folk Festival and Folk Night possible.

Your Last Goodbye.... A horrible tragedy in NL history, the loss of the Ocean Ranger in 1982. This song was written just days after the event by Mr. Bruce Moss, and perfectly captures the weight of this loss that forever changed our offshore oil industry.

Pat Murphy`s Meadow, Lyrics written by J.M. Devine.
This is also the first song that I ever sang for my uncle, John `Skinny` White. While John was my Mom`s brother, he lived with my Nanny White when I was young, so he always felt a bit more like a Grandfather to me. He, along with my aunts and of course my Mom, had a huge influence on me and my love for traditional NL and Irish Music.

A request and a favorite of many all over the world.... my acapella rendition of Saltwater Joys. Written by Wayne Chaulk of Buddywasisname and the Other Fellers.
The imagery and emotion that these lyrics evoke is like none other, making it perhaps one of the most well-known songs to come out NL. Sharing is caring lol.

mickdavis77 at slaintestjohns hosted by nlfolk 🥂
my first time seeing Mick Davis and my first time at Sláinte. What an amazing show, I heard some of my favourite songs by some of my favourite artists played tonight and I loved it. You rarely hear Roy Orbison and Buddy Holly songs be performed so it was really a treat to see.
