What’s up readers? Summer is in full swing, so let the good times roll. No plans this week? No problem! The Jamwich has got you covered with a carefully crafted listed of concerts, festivals and other related events going on throughout the week. Here’s whats up!
This weekend marks the inaugural 4848 Festival, presented by All Good; an event that seeks to raise the bar and make us reimagine what a music festival can be. Party down all weekend long at an altitude of 4848’ at Snowshoe Mountain Resort in Showshoe, WV with Greensky Bluegrass, Umphrey’s McGee, The Infamous Stringdusters, Lettuce, Railroad Earth, The Marcus King Band, Billy Strings, Turkuaz, and several other premiere musicians. Other than the scenery and music, get excited for a schedule full of adventure activities such as swimming, paddle boating, canoeing and kayaking, hiking, zipline rides, and lift rides. You can also feel free to skip the adventuring and instead spend the afternoon hanging out in a hammock near Shaver’s Lake, or hit a bucket of balls at The Raven driving range. As of this moment, all V.I.P, and non-camping lodging options are sold out. If you’re looking to join in on the party but haven’t gotten your tickets yet, expect to be pitching a tent. With this being said, three-day GA weekend passes are on sale for $195, with a camping pass costing an additional $255. These tickets aren’t cheap, however, the experience they will afford you with make them well worth it.

Red Wing Roots Festival, presented by The Steel Wheels, and brought to you by Blue Mountain Brewery and WNRN, returns to Natural Chimneys Park in Mt. Solon, VA. for its 7th annual weekend-long celebration.

Musicians scheduled to play the event include Lucinda Williams, The Wood Brothers, Mandolin Orange, Peter Rowan, Tim O’Brien Band, The Gibson Brothers, Della Mae, The Steel Wheels, and a bunch of other talented artists.
