This year’s event returns to From The Ground Brewing in Red Hook, NY on Saturday, August 10th. Alongside vending from This and That an on-site record fair by Bash and Pop and pop-up clothing bazaar from Thrift 2 Fight, the event features a huge roster of RSTB favorites. The festival this year will include:
Steve Gunn
Sunburned Hand of the Man
Trummors
Jeffrey Alexander + The Heavy Lidders
Sean Thompson’s Weird Ears
Bong Wish
Magic Tuber Stringband
Seawind of Battery
Plus, I’m excited to announce that we’ll be adding a Friday program to the festival, with our Friends at Tubby’s in Kingston helping to host a Warm-up show for the fest the night before! The Friday show will start at 7PM at Tubby’s featuring the following lineup:
ONEIDA
Jeffrey Alexander + The Heavy Lidders
Vague Plot
Note: The Heavy Lidders will be playing a completely separate set on Friday from their Sat set, with different lineups for each day.
301 Guski Rd, Red Hook, NY 12571
The event will partner with some great local organizations, with vending for the festival by This and That Food Truck, an on-site record fair by Bash and Pop and a pop-up clothing bazaar from Thrift 2 Fight.
What can I bring to Deep In The Valley?
Low backed chairs, blankets, picnic lunches (though vendors will be on hand as well), extra water or fill-able container (available at the fest also, but it’s August, so hydrate!).
What should I not bring?
Tents, large umbrellas that may obstruct views, pets (we love dogs but too many can be a problem), firearms, noise-making devices, laser pointers, knives, box cutters, tools of any kind (including hammers, knives, screwdrivers, etc.), pepper spray, mace, or any kind of item that could be used as a weapon. You, know, be reasonable.
Parking
There should be plenty of space on the Brewery / Orchard’s grounds, but please carpool if possible so that we can save space. Parking is free at the event.
Can I leave the show and return?
Preferably not for logistics sake, but we’ll have a wristband for re-entry if it’s necessary. It would be nice not to have a lot of in and out traffic during the bands’ sets, though, please.
Can I bring the kids?
Sure! Kids under 10 will get free entry to the event.
Can I bring a dog?
We love canine friends, but in the interest of those who don’t it would be best to leave them at home for the festival. Service dogs excepted.
What happens if it rains?
As long as it’s not dangerous the show will proceed and small umbrellas will be allowed. Let’s hope for the best. If it’s severe weather I’ll advise here day of show.
Can I tape the show?
Yes, but please reach out to info@ravensingstheblues.com to discuss. Power outlets will not be available for this, though.
Can I camp?
No, not on the grounds, though there is a campsite near Rhinebeck, just a few minutes away. Check Interlake RV Park
Can I swim in the pond?
Sadly, no. But its a pretty beautiful backdrop to the show.
