Woodsist Festival

Contact Patrick Tilley, Ben Demars about Woodsist Festival

The beloved Woodsist Festival returns to Arrowood Farms in Accord, New York, on September 21-22, 2024. Performers this year include headliners Yo La Tengo, Real Estate, and Jessica Pratt, along with Woods, Hailu Mergia, Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Jeff Parker, Etran de L’Aïr, The Messthetics, 75 Dollar Bill Big Band, Rosali, Mystic 100s, Florry, and Sylvie. Arrowood Farms, a sustainably-minded farm, brewery and distillery located in New York’s scenic Hudson Valley, will host the performers on two alternating stages throughout the weekend and feature food from local Hudson Valley-based vendors and craft beer brewed directly on site. Tickets go on sale Friday, April 26th at 10:00AM ET and are available via www.woodsistfestival.com.

 

As in previous years, Jeremy Earl of Woods has curated the festival’s lineup. Formed in 2004, Woods have matured into a true independent institution, above and below the root, reliably emerging every few years with new music that grows towards the latest sky. On top of a new EP release, the band has embarked on a full year of touring, including shows with Waxahatchee, Avey Tare, and Natural Information Society.

 

The inaugural Woodsist Festival took place in Brooklyn in 2009 with Thee Oh Sees headlining alongside a number of acts including Beach Fossils, Real Estate, and Kurt Vile. Since then, the festival has been presented in various locations including Big Sur, Point Reyes National Seashore, and Pioneertown, CA. The festival found its home at Arrowood Farms in 2019, presented in partnership with Ground Control Touring and premiere Hudson Valley concert promoters Impact Concerts, and has returned annually since 2021.
