One of the newer summer music events to hit the books in the Hudson Valley is keyboardist Marco Benevento’s second annual outdoor Follow the Arrow festival, which will jam it up on June 17 at Arrowood Farms brewery.
In addition to the host and headliner himself, this year’s roster includes Rubblebucket, the Barr Brothers, LaMP (featuring Scott Metzger, Russ Lawton, and Ray Paczkowski), the Benevento Family Band, Upstate, Karina Rykman, and “Let’s Dance,” an all-star tribute to David Bowie by Benevento with special guests Duane Betts (son of Allman Brothers Band guitarist Dickie Betts), Arleigh Rose and Jackson (of Sister Sparrow), Mikaela Davis, and Stuart Bogie.
“We’re so excited to invite everyone back to Follow the Arrow this summer,” Benevento says. “As anyone who attended last year will tell you, it was a magical day. Everyone partied and had an amazing experience, but it was also family-friendly vibes, where you could bring your kiddos and kick back because they were having as much fun as everyone else. This year’s lineup includes some of my all-time favorite musicians. We’re still feeling it from last year, so you know we’re only gonna build on that energy and have ourselves an absolute blast.”
The Follow the Arrow festival will take place at Arrowood Farms in Accord on June 17 at 1pm. Tickets are $80 general admission and $160 VIP via the Arrowood Farms website. See website for more information.
