Under the Stars Festival Review

Friday, June 19th started out just like any hot, summer day at the farm, but this particular day would eventually lead our crew to Quail Ridge Lake in Aldie, Virginia. We were packed and ready to go by early afternoon and headed down the road to spend our weekend with an incredible community of artists and musicians at Under the Stars Festival. After a few hours of driving we finally made it and were embraced by the looming humidity of the day.

The location was ideal! There were just enough trees and an incredible lake that was perfect to dip into to cool off. The main stage was in a prime spot right beside of the lake so anyone swimming could still enjoy the music. Many people were taking advantage of this with about 25 people in the water at any given time!

We had our bear to emerge just in time for Beggars Tomb Band. These guys were an amazing Grateful Dead tribute band and it was obvious by the crowd they had drawn that they were really talented musicians! 

The evening progressed wonderfully with music by DELTAnine, ELM (formerly Segway), and Silo Effect. Saturday proved to be just as great as the night before with all sorts of wonderful musicians and even performances by a few of Pink MoonFestival’s own Former Champions, Galaxy Dynamite!, and Moogatu! A personal favorite of mine included Sunny Trippel from On the Bus. This woman is an incredible singer with amazing vocals that left a lasting impression!

Overall the weekend was truly remarkable! We had such a great time with everyone at Under the Stars and a special thanks to Family is Forever for hosting such a wonderful event – we love you!
