The fifth annual Otis Mountain Get Down will take place September 8 – 10 at Otis Mountain in Elizabethtown, NY. Part rock n’ roll party on a mountain with some sprinklings of a ‘weekend camping get together with your best friends’ on steroids, the main point of the Get Down stays true to itself: to produce an experience that encourages new and meaningful interactions with art, music, the outdoors and each other, while also embracing and supporting our local communities, music and culture.
The fest’s varied line up in terms of genres points clearly to that fact and the names of the artists that are frequenting all the best Northeast stomps and touring their asses off all over the place is a surefire indicator that you may just find your favorite new band you didn’t know about yet at Otis Mountain. The initial round of performers was just announced this week and its sure to be a doozy. Ranging from our favorite rambling troubadour, fire finger picker Sam Moss to the sublime intricate harmonies of The Ladles and the rollicking, experimental noise of The Go-Rounds…well, there is something for everyone and quite possibly everything for someone. So, get your tickets early and we will see you on the mountain folks.
