At the conclusion of Dromfest the first two years, we’ve sat back and reflected on how fun the weekend was, how many friends we got to spend time with, how many new friends we’ve made, and enjoyed the afterglow. After a few months of thinking it over and speaking with friends and bands, we ultimately decided that we should do another one.

Last year, there was no question. Dromfest wasn’t even over yet, and Sandy and I looked at each other and said it: yep, I guess this is something we do now.

So almost instantly, we started thinking of ways we could make this year’s festival even cooler than the last ones, and how we could improve on the things we did last year.

We think we’ve got the best bill yet. Here’s what it looks like:

Friday, September 4:
Dumptruck
Consonant
Karen Schoemer & her “August” band

Saturday, September 5:
Wussy
Antietam
Doug Gillard
Moviola
Via
The Martha’s Vineyard Ferries
Barbara Manning
Stuyvesant
The Human Hearts
Tiny Blue Ghost
P.G. Six
Readings from Erica Fletcher, Scott Seward and Tim Sommer

Sunday, September 6:
Come
Scrawl
Nice Strong Arm
Hypnolovewheel
Sleepyhead
Beth Kaplan
French/Cell
Purple Ivy Shadows
Creative Writing
R.B. Korbet
Sweet Harm
Special screening of the film “Radiation” by Michael Galinsky and Suki Hawley

Plus, all weekend long we’ll have the Steve Keene Art Store and a photo exhibit by Michael Galinsky, a great new festival brew by our friends at Return Brewing, and some other surprises as well.

As always, we’ve got tons of stuff we’ll share with you as we get closer – you’ll just have to follow us on social media for details.
