LIve Streaming Event | Northwest String Summit
Searching for some live music? My neighbor here in Colorado puts on the Northwest String Summit in Oregon each summer. Due to COVID, this festival has been cancelled so he putting on this live streaming event to help out some of the local artists. He converted his barn to a recording studio and has been hard at work recording some pretty national amazing acts in his/my backyard!
I have no affiliation with this effort, just trying to get the word out to help out some good people. Here is the press release. I hope you can check it out yourself.
Northwest String Summit Announces Final Lineup for Hiding Out At Home: A Virtual Northwest String Summit, July 17-19
Live, remote, and archival sets from NWSS favorites In Partnership with LIVE FROM OUT THERE; 3-day passes available now, single-day passes on sale Thursday
If we can’t be together in person, let’s be together in spirit
July 14, 2020 - North Plains, OR - For eighteen years and counting, Northwest String Summit has brought fans of contemporary bluegrass, indie, funk, jam rock, and everything in between to the greater Portland area for what has become a highlight of the summer for festivalgoers nationwide. Usually taking place in North Plains’ beautiful Horning’s Hideout, this year’s String Summit’s 19th annual event, “Hiding Out At Home,” will take place entirely online on July 17-19 with live, remote, and archival sets and interviews from festival favorites including Yonder Mountain String Band, Greensky Bluegrass, Del & Dawg, Brendan Bayliss (Umphrey’s McGee) and many, many more. See below for the entire lineup. As of today, 3-day passes are still available for $39.99 and single-day passes will go on sale for $15.99 this Thursday, July 16th, at 10 am Pacific. All passes can be purchased at this link. A full list of performances—live, remote, and archival—can be found below.
Longtime String Summit-goers will be happy to know that the annual Lilli Trippe Memorial Headshave will be held digitally on Sunday’s stream. The festival’s emcee, Pastor Tim Christensen, will be shaving his head for the 2nd time for this amazing cause. Click here for a history of this loving festival tradition. Conscious Alliance’s Art That Feeds food drive is offering a unique commemorative Hiding Out At Home poster benefitting the Washington County, Oregon, Food Shelter. The poster is available here and other virtual String Summit merchandise can be purchased here. Every festivalgoer’s favorite non-partisan voter registration organization, HeadCount, will also be participating in Hiding Out At Home to help bring awareness to the election year cycle and to aid viewers in registering to vote.
“The intent of this project is to co-create something NEW and exciting alongside—albeit 6ft apart—many of our Kinfolk and industry family; something that will help, in our own way, ease some pains and frustrations of the current state of affairs through art, music and virtual community,” say festival organizers in a statement regarding this year’s Northwest String Summit live stream. “It is an understatement to say that it is tough to see the beautiful brothers and sisters of the music industry—crew and artists—struggle so much without income, gigs, and only a few outlets of expression. This stream is for them! Much of the money raised by the Virtual NWSS will go back to the artists and crew of our event and industry. By doing so we feel we've created a beautifully unique product that truly captures the energetic essence of NWSS at Horning's Hideout. We believe that you will feel much of the same love, excitement, and community as is if you were actually there...with a little less dust.”
