  • 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! Stay tuned to pickinfestival.com and our social media Container platforms to stay up to date. 636-629-4541 Moon Beam Mandolins We hope you find the same love for Lost Hill Lake as we have. Founders Niki Fox and Ryan Kemp were married here in 2015. Samantha and Rob Williford have open their arms and hearts to the Pickin’ On Crew.

  • If You Follow the Sound of Mountain Music Down the Last Narrowing
    SC_Smiles_095 11/17/06 3:43 PM Page 95 pace. Many parents take their children home, only to return for some truly great Bluegrass from Old Crowe Medicine Show, Reeltime Travelers, Larry Keel, Peter Rowan and Tony Rice and headliner Sam Bush, among others. Aiken organizer Steve Groat says Bluegrass music has a unifying effect on a community, with an appeal that stretches across all ages, incomes and social levels. “And our festival is for a wonderful cause, supporting STAR Riding and Driving, an equestrian volunteer organization dedicated to helping children and adults with disabilities through therapeutic interaction with horses,” says Groat. “We couldn’t be more pleased, bringing great music to our town and helping so many through the music.” By Stephen Delaney Hale Make your plans for some musical fun May 11-12, 2007. For more information and a lineup of events, If you follow the sound of mountain music down the last see www.aikenbluegrassfestival.org narrowing ridge of the Great Smoky Mountains, you’ll come to a foot-stompin’ halt at the Aiken Bluegrass Festival. Four years old in May 2007, the Aiken Bluegrass Festival is already an important stop on the national circuit as it winds its way around the Carolina mountains where it was born and throughout the rest of the country. From the start, the Aiken festival has drawn some of the greatest names in Bluegrass—and their fans. Part of the reason for the festival’s instant popularity is its venue. The new, wide-open Newberry Street Festival Site in downtown Aiken was fashioned by the city for just this sort of thing.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Leftover Salmon Thirty Years of Festival! by Tim Newby 28 LIVE TRACKS HAND SELECTED BY OUR ARCHIVIST CHRIS MRACHECK TO GO ALONG WITH EACH CHAPTER OF THE BOOK. “Leftover Salmon: Thirty Years of Festival!" is the definitive story of a band who has defied norms and blazed their own path since they first came together nearly thirty years ago. Pulling from that long career, Thirty Years of Festival Live! is the audio companion for the book and helps to tell the story of Leftover Salmon through twenty-eight tracks that span the band’s entire existence. The album was culled from Salmon’s live music archive and serves as the musical narration for the book, as each track was chosen for its historical significance. Many of the tracks are specifically referenced in the book and allow the reader to experience (or for some relive) that special musical moment in the band’s history. Other tracks highlight the historical importance of various tours and the different musical eras of the band. While others feature friends and guests who have played a role in Salmon’s lasting legacy. Quite simply this compilation is a festival for your ears!” Author Tim Newby. 30 Years of Festival Live!

  • Keller Williams
    Keller Williams Keller Williams released his first album in 1994, FREEK, and has since given each of his albums a single syllable title: BUZZ, SPUN, BREATHE, LOOP, LAUGH, HOME, DANCE, STAGE, GRASS, DREAM, TWELVE, LIVE, ODD, THIEF, KIDS, BASS, PICK, FUNK, VAPE, SYNC, RAW, SANS and Add, those who have followed his career will know this. Each title serves as a concise summation of the concept guiding each project. GRASS, for example, is a bluegrass recording cut with the husband-wife duo The Keels. STAGE is a live album, and DREAM is the realization of Keller’s wish to collaborate with some of his musical heroes. THIEF is a set of unexpected cover songs, KIDS offers Keller’s first children’s record, PICK presents Keller’s collaboration with royal bluegrass family The Travelin’ McCoury’s, and RAW is a solo acoustic album. Each album showcases Keller’s comprehensive and diverse musical endeavors and functions to provide another piece of the jigsaw puzzle that is Keller Williams. Keller’s collaborative and solo albums reflect his pursuit to create music that sounds like nothing else. Unbeholden to conventionalism, he seamlessly crosses genre boundaries. The end product is astounding and novel music that encompasses rock, jazz, funk and bluegrass, and always keeps the audience on their feet. Since he first appeared on the scene in the early ’90s, Williams has defined the term independent artist. And his recordings tell only half the story. Keller built his reputation initially on his engaging live performances, no two of which are ever alike. For most of his career he has performed solo.

  • 2017 High Sierra Music Festival Program
    WELCOME! Festivarians, music lovers, friends old and new... WELCOME to the 27th version of our annual get-together! This year, we can’t help but look back 50 years to the Summer of Love, the summer of 1967, a year that brought us the Monterey Pop Festival (with such performers as Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Otis Redding, Janis Joplin and The Grateful Dead) which became an inspiration and template for future music festivals like the one you find yourself at right now. But the hippies of that era would likely refer to what’s going on in the political climate of these United States now as a “bad trip” with the old adage “the more things change, the more they stay the same” coming back into play. Here we are in 2017 with so many of the rights and freedoms that were fought long and hard for over the past 50 years being challenged, reinterpreted or revoked seemingly at warp speed. It’s high time to embrace the two basic tenets of the counterculture movement. First is PEACE. PEACE for your fellow human, PEACE within and PEACE for our planet. The second tenet brings a song to mind - and while the Beatles Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band gets all the attention on its 50th anniversary, it’s the final track on their Magical Mystery Tour album (which came out later the same year) that contains the most apropos song for these times. ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE. LOVE more, fear less. LOVE is always our answer. Come back to LOVE.

  • TURNER, THOMAS F., Ph.D. Sustainable Business in The
    TURNER, THOMAS F., Ph.D. Sustainable Business in the Experience Economy: An Examination of Marketplace, Consumers and Community in the Context of Americana Music Festivals. (2016) Directed by Dr. Nancy Hodges. 266 pp. With music fans attending festivals like Bonnaroo and Coachella in record numbers, festival revenues have grown from very little a decade ago to over $4.6 billion in 2011 (Grose, 2011). Americana music festivals are one such type of music festival currently enjoying increased popularity. The purpose of this dissertation is to understand consumption-related behaviors and experiences within the Americana music festival context. Thus, one of the primary goals of this dissertation is to understand the experience of the Americana music festival and to explore what this experience means for festivalgoers, fans, and the genre itself. Four research objectives were developed to address this purpose: (1) to explore the Americana music festival experience, (2) to investigate the role of consumption in this experience, (3) to examine how the Americana music festival functions as a marketplace, and (4) to investigate the ways that Americana music festivals link to the local community. Americana music festivals are settings that allow the emotive, affective properties of the consumption process to emerge through moments of fun, enjoyment and leisure. However, thus far, no academic research has investigated the Americana music festival as a particular experiential consumption context. Likewise, although research exists on festivals in general, there are gaps in this literature specifically related to festival consumption behaviors. An ethnographic approach was used to address the purpose and objectives of this study.
