Taking place at Ranch Del Rio and the State Bridge Amphitheatre near Bond, Colo., alongside the Colorado River Aug. 2-5, YarmonyGrass will also include appearances by members of The String Cheese Incident, The Contribution, Honkytonk Homeslice, Todd Sheaffer, Danny Barnes and more. Poor Man’s Whiskey featuring Michael Kang will perform “Dark Side Of The Moonshine.”

Oh, and did we mention Railroad Earth will do two sets and that Elephant Revival will appear Saturday and Sunday?

And don’t forget about the in-demand YarmonyGrass Joint Set, featuring String Cheese Incident frontman Bill Nershi.

“After the bands have played their sets, the top pickers and singers get together for the Joint Set,” Nershi said. “The musicians bring their favorite songs to the jam. Players and fans push the limits and gravitate toward the bizarre.”

Wouldn’t you rather be here?

Known for being more than just a music festival, YarmonyGrass has plenty of activities available, including rafting and stand-up paddleboarding as well as kayaking, bicycling and hiking.

Tickets go on sale May 18. Visit YarmonyGrass.com for more information.
