Photos from the Festy Experience

Milo Farineau took in the debut Festy Experience, the recently-concluded three day music event headlined by The Infamous Stringdusters adjacentent to the Devils Backbone Brewing Company in Nelson County, Virginia.

The entertainment featured a who’s who of modern bluegrass and jam grass acts – Tony Rice Unit, Crooked Still, Railroad Earth, Larry Keel, Packway Handle Band, Old School Freight Train and more. The ‘Dusters served as amiable hosts and performed both days (10/9-10) on the main stage.

Milo sent along a gallery of images from the musical performances.

Farineau shoots for The Hook, a weekly paper published in Charlottesville, VA, and is working on a photo book project on music festivals, with an emphasis on bluegrass. He is collaborating with Chester Simpson, an experienced photojournalist whose credits include Rolling Stone and USO.
