A.J. Lee and the Blue Summit was the headliner for the first week of the Anchorage Folk Festival.

The Anchorage Folk Festival faces a midlife crisis, as it struggles with finances and looks for new ways to cover costs.

Scaling back the festival from two weeks to one is one possibility festival organizers are considering, as well as cutting back on headliners invited from outside Alaska to perform.
