About Wanyama
Wanyama is an energizing 5 piece band creating music that entertains the grooves of funk, vibes of reggae, and the elements of hip-hop. Formed in Cleveland Ohio, Wanyama has a goal to separate themselves from other musicians, delivering a unique fusion of styles often accompanied by freestyle improvisations, making each show different from the last.
About Into the Blue
Into The Blue is a 7 piece band that plays all Grateful Dead songs, strategic set lists designed to help people get down and boogie. 12 years strong, this band has matured into a well oiled machine. They are based in Cleveland, Ohio.
About Blue Moon Soup
Blue Moon Soup, the acoustic folk quartet from Yellow Springs, Ohio, entrances audiences with an eclectic mix of jam band staples, folk and bluegrass traditional standards, and original tunes that fuse folk and psychedelia to establish a unique identity in an increasingly homogenized musical landscape.
About Nelson Ledges Quarry Park
The scenic Nelson Ledges Quarry Park is a great place to camp,
swim, hike, sunbathe, attend music festivals, or just plain hang
out. The park is a beautiful landscape made up of 250 acres of
forest, meadows, streams, rock ledges, fishing lakes, and of course
the quarry itself. There are also more than 400 campsites, some
deep in the woods, some along the Quarry, and others in secluded
meadows. Nelson Ledges is an ideal venue for weekend-long music
festivals and has a packed roster for the 2019 season.
