GENERAL STUFF!
At the Riverhawk Music Festival
we cook up many different
styles of music together and stir them up in one pot. The resulting dish is
a pretty good taste of tunes that appeal to those that can switch their
musical diet from fasting to overeating in one weekend. (And still feel good
about it) You may not recognize any of the dishes on our menu…but you will go
home wanting the recipe. If you are a fan with a narrow path of musical
wishes, This fest may not be for you. But if you’re able to bend the rules,
open your mind and veer away from top 40, and commercial radio, this show is
for you!
The festival
is produced by Lind Entertainment, owned by Mitch & Deb Lind & his son Garrett &
Ryon
