Limiting our environmentally- negative footprint goes hand-in-hand with every decision the company makes, and hiring a passionate and skilled Green Team has been in place since year one. Acknowledging the waste created by disposable cups and water bottles, FloydFest was an early-adopter of reusable pint glasses for each patron, which has saved hundreds of thousands of single-use cups over the years. All of our vendors are required to use 100%-compostable products, and we recycle all food vendor vegetable oil. Each year, FloydFest presents Sustainability Panels and Green Jam Sessions, where artists, staff and industry professionals intimately discuss green living, sustainability, new green trends and ideas and world perspectives. Intermingled with intimate live performances, these sessions create memorable, lasting experiences.

  • Musicians Surprise Fans with Election Reminder Calls
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: MUSICIANS SURPRISE FANS WITH ELECTION REMINDER CALLS Fans can request election reminder phone calls from rock stars at HeadCount.org; Most calls will be recorded but a few lucky fans will get the real thing New York, NY – Some of the biggest names in music will be hitting the phones over the next week to help get the vote out, calling randomly-selected fans and chatting about the upcoming election. Willie Nelson, ?uestlove of the Roots, and Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips are among the dozen musicians involved with the “Pledge to Vote” campaign staged by HeadCount, a nonpartisan organization that promotes electoral participation. Each artist recorded reminders that will be sent to fans before Election Day via automated phone calls. In addition, most artist participants will be making live calls - surprising fans who expect to only hear a recording. “Let’s get some folks cranked up about this,” said Bob Weir, a HeadCount board member who will also be personally calling dozens of voters. “It’s so important that people, particularly young people, are paying attention and voting so a bunch of cranky old folks don’t steal their future. Hopefully getting a call from a familiar voice will be motivation.” Weir is currently touring with his former Grateful Dead bandmate Phil Lesh under the name Furthur. HeadCount co-chair Marc Brownstein, of The Disco Biscuits, will personally phone dozens of fans from HeadCount's Manhattan office the night before the election, Monday Nov. 1st. Meanwhile, video cameras will be rolling and all the calls will be streamed live on the Web at www.HeadCount.org/Blog and www.Relix.com starting at 9 PM ET.

  • Peter Novelli Peternovelli.Com
    Peter Novelli peternovelli.com Guitarist / singer / songwriter Peter Novelli is based in New Orleans. The Peter Novelli Band plays Louisiana roots and blues, a blend of blues-rock-R&B-funk with some zydeco-cajun influences. Novelli’s CD Louisiana Roots & Blues (June 12 release) with his core rhythm section Darryl White (drums, formerly w/ Tab Benoit and Chris Thomas King), Chris Chew (bass, North Mississippi Allstars), Joe Krown (B3 and piano, formerly w/ late Gatemouth Brown), and special guests Chubby Carrier (Grammy-winning zydeco accordionist), Chris Thomas King (lap slide guitar, Grammy “Oh Brother, Where Art Thou”), Shamarr Allen (trumpet) and Elaine and Lisa Foster on vocals. Novelli’s debut CD, produced by bassist David Hyde, hit the charts within a month of release and gathered widespread critical acclaim. His originals, with a few selected covers, made a journey through Louisiana-American blues-roots music. Guests include Dr. John, Paul Barrere, Augie Meyers, the late Gatemouth Brown’s rhythm section, and top Lousiana musicians. The CD includes an historical Tribute To Slim Harpo, with members of Harpo’s band including James Johnson, and interviews with Johnson, the late Raful Neal and “Big” Johnny Thomassie. Novelli started violin at age 6, picked up guitar at 14 after hearing a BB King record. The intensity, passion and raw emotional content of some of the blues masters (black and white, American and British) stuck in his ear and that is what drives him to this day. He likes to combine this feel with harmonic ideas of jazz, the relentless groove of zydeco, and just about any cool and unusual style of music or rhythm that works.

  • Grinner's Guide
    2019 Grinner’s Guide Pickin’ On Music Festivals began in 2015 with the first Pickin’ On event, Thank you to our sponsors Pickin’ On the Courtois, hosted at Bass River Resort. We built the idea around inviting our favorite musicians and friends to a weekend camp out and pickin’ party along the banks of Missouri’s scenic riverways, where the music and the smiles never stop. After a successful first year, we decided this was too big and exciting to not continue year after year. We work year round to bring you new and exciting music, scenery, activities and memories to share with your friends and family. Bringing people together through the love of music is what the Pickin’ On Festivals are all about; with artist-led workshops and campfire jams, we celebrate talented musicians and lovers of music alike. Since 2015 we have Pick’d on The Meramec, The Mississippi, The Huzzah and The Courtois. In 4 years, the Pickin’ On Family and Crew has grown Thank you to our community partners and we hope you will join us for everything that is yet to come. We have found a home here at Lost Hill Lake and we plan to host more events BOLTE here in 2020!

  • Worldwide Movie Culture Returns at This Year's Rhode
    Worldwide Movie Culture Returns At This Year’s Rhode Island International Film Festival Entering its 18th year since its founding by George T. Marshall, the founder of the Flicker Arts Collaborate, RIIFF has become a focal point of international films by everyone from up-and-coming filmmakers to highly seasoned actors and directors. Between August 5 and 10 this year, roughly 270 films will be shown including Flavio Alves’ Tom In America, Marcelo Mitnik’s En las nubes (In the Clouds), and Selcuk Zvi Cara’s Mein Leztes Konzert (My Last Concert). Since 2002, the RIIFF has been a qualifying festival for the Academy Awards in short film categories. Numerous stars and celebrities have attended RIIFF over the past decade including Seymour Cassel, Andrew McCarthy, Kim Chan and Michael Showalter. Some have had the honor of receiving the Festival Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2001 it was awarded to Breakfast At Tiffany’s director, Blake Edwards, accepted by his wife, renowned actress Julie Andrews. In 2009, the honor went to the multi-Emmy and Golden Globe nominated Academy Award winner Ernest Borgnine. This year’s recipient is Theodore Bikel, known for originating the role of Captain Van Trapp in “The Sound of Music” on Broadway and Oscar nominated for 1958’s The Defiant Ones. Bikel speaks 10 languages, and will be presenting his film, “Journey 4 Artists” a multi-lingual, musical piece that seeks to bridge cultural gaps through folk music and stories, including Bosnian, Jewish and Arabic samples. It will be paired with Cara’s Mein Leztes Konzert, a short Yiddish film about a composer, which Quirk calls, “A visual poem.
