This Labor Day weekend in the beautiful mountains of Patrick County, VA, Front Porch Fest will commemorate its tenth anniversary with a Homecoming celebraon, bringing together friends and family to enjoy both new and returning acts on three stages. As always, the festival will continue to feature the best in local, regional, and national music and vendors while raising money and awareness for local community organizations and charities.
The initial 2018 band lineup released in April featured bluegrass dynamos the Larry Keel Experience, the folk stylings of Bristol, Tennessee-based Annabelle's Curse, and 2017 festival favorites Dr. Bacon, along with other local and regional acts. Now the festival is adding even more star power to their lineup, including naonal jam band legends Perpetual Groove, the "island-infused drum n' bass gospel ninja soul" of multi-instrumentalist Zach Deputy, fan favorites Big Daddy Love and Urban Soil, and more. The festival will also continue to highlight the best in local talent, including Waiting to Exhale, a Patrick County group fronted by two women vocalists, both daughters of hard working Appalachian families with roots deep and long in the mountains of Virginia.
