AsheFest is Coming!
The reason for this event is to bring festivals back to their roots. Festivals today are trying to have as many bands as possible, which can detract from the longevity of the music. Up and coming bands are often left out or left with too little stage time. Forty-five minutes to one hour of music per band is just not enough! That's when the music if just getting warmed up.Here at Ashefest, our goal is to have fewer bands and longer sets of music. Along with the performances, we're organizing a gathering that people will remember for years to come.
During the coming months you will see many additions to the festival, such as nightly themes, workshops, and art exhibitions. You will also see a focus on comfort for attendees that far surpass the festivals you've attended before.
This event will be held on private property, not at a city stadium or other municipal venue where the police presence can be overwhelming. Deerfield's will have the necessary security in place to allow a positive festival experience for everyone.
We would also like to make this festival an interactive experience in which you are not just an audience member, but are also part of the show. This means having set times for good old fashioned open jams, where you get the chance to jam with other musicians in the audience, and maybe even some of the artists you've come to see. Don't forget, this is your festival and ours. All of us: organizers, artists, bands, volunteers and especially you the audience, let's make it a great one so that we have many more to come!
