It’s June and festival season is jumping into full-swing! This weekend (June 13th-15th) start your summer off proper with the soothing sounds and sights brought to you at Disc-Jam Festival in Barre, Massachusetts.  Only 175 miles from New York City and a mere one and one half hour road trip out of Boston, this relatively intimate festival offers all the amenities. It is in a beautiful and new location at Camp Coldbrook which is only 30 minutes from last year’s locale! The fourth annual Disc Jam is poised to kick-off our summer festival season into high gear!
Over the weekend festival attendees will have over 60 different musical selection to choose from.  They are a myriad of mighty quickly-ascending bands covering a wide range of genres including jam, jamtronica, funk, psychadelic , and electronic. The headliners for the event are Kung Fu and local favorites, Dopapod. Festival veterans and insatiable shredders, Consider the Source, are joined by energetic 10-piece band Turkuaz, Vermont’s Twiddle and the reggae rhythms of the powerful Nth Power.Â
There are a variety of stimulating activities outside of the melodic sphere. Disc golf will be available and a cash prize tournament set to take place. Disc Jam provides all your favorite clothing, gift and glassware vendors, family and kid’s activities, live painting, installation artists, yoga sessions and hula hoop workshops! There is also a fun silent disco area and a community bonfire. Although rapidly growing, Disc-Jam is the ideal small festival that we all look back at fondly at the end of each festival season. You won’t want to miss it! With tickets priced at only $100 include camping, so there is no excuse not to attend and share good vibes with good people over spectacular music!
