“We were just thinking about ‘what do we want to do here? Who do we get to play?’,” front man Cody Cannon shared with Outsider of curating the inaugural lineup in 2021. “Then at the end of the day, it’s like, we just need to get our friends. Our favorite bands around are the people that we’re friends with. So, all those people on there, man, we just think the world of them… we’re very thankful to be able to put that together and just have all our friends at the same place at once.”

In addition to a reunion of musical friends on stage, the festival located on 150 acres of meadows, ponds and wooded hills will offer the ultimate outdoor lifestyle experience for fans with the live concerts supplemented by on-site activities include canoeing, zip-lining, rock climbing and a swimming pool.
