Ten of thousands of ready-to-party fans swarmed the stages of Citi Field on Friday for the opener of Governors Ball, which continues Saturday and Sunday. Scott Lynch has photos, chatter, tips and highlights for newcomers and seasoned Gov Ball pros alike.
Part of the fun of going to a festival is strolling up to a performance by someone you've never heard of before, but who has legions of devoted fans on the rail, shrieking and singing along to all the songs. Such was the case with Julia Wolf, who performed twice on Friday: first on the big main stage at 1:00, and later on the more intimate Bud Light Seltzer venue.
Wolf herself had a much shorter trip to Citi Field yesterday. A Queens local, Wolf got her start by recording songs in her bedroom in Astoria starting at the end of 2019, and posting them online, building up a fanbase during the pandemic. "This is the first time I've ever even been to Gov Ball," she told Gothamist, "and it was pure magic being up there, just feeding off the crowd. They're so loving and welcoming. So much good energy. It was perfect.
