moe.down
A decade ago, moe. envisioned the ultimate bash where band and fans came together for not one, not two, but three days of music and camping. As hosts, they wanted to stock the party with both nationally known and up-and-coming bands from all different genres. After 10 great years in Turin, NY they decided to try a new location for moe.down - The Gelston Castle Estate in Mohawk, NY.
moe. has shared the stage with the likes of Perry Farrell's Sattelite Party, Ani DiFranco, Les Claypool, The Levon Helm Band, The Sparrow Quartet featuring Abagail Washburn and Bela Fleck, The Flaming Lips, CAKE, The Derek Trucks Band, Rusted Root, David Grisman Quintet, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Blues Traveler, Nellie McKay, Leo Kottke, The President of the United States of America, Fishbone, The Roots, Ziggy Marley, The Violent Femmes, Amos Lee, The Meat Puppets, State Radio, Sam Bush, Medeski Scofield Martin and Wood, Mike Gordon and Ramble Dove, Page McConnell with Jon Fishman, Adam Zimmon, They Might be Giants, Jared Slomoff and Rob O'Dea, Umphrey's McGee, The Avett Brothers, Martin Sexton and many more.
We begin the moe.down weekend with the moe.down Charity Golf Outing which donates to a different wonderful cause annually. The gates open at noon and the music starts at 5pm on Friday, rotating between 2 separate stages all weekend. If you have the stamina, you can see every band that plays at this intimate and rockin' festival. We offer great vending and delicious food, as well as Saranac Beer. There is kids' tent that promises to entertain the toughest critics! Don't miss out on what thousands of folks call their favorite weekend of the year!
