New England Acoustic Music Festival

04/06/2017

It with much sadness that we have to announce that the New England Acoustic Music Festival will be taking a hiatus in 2017 until further notice. We thank all of the fans who supported the festival over the years. We would also like to thank all of our acts that have performed in the past, we have always had amazing lineups. And a major thank you to all of our corporate and non-profit partners who have supported our festival, especially our major sponsor Cargill Chevrolet, without them it would never have happened. We continue to urge you to support some of the other great music festivals in New England and around the country. See you down the road.

From an email from a first time NEAMF attendee:

"Wow, NEAMF is a hidden gem and one of the best music festivals in all of New England. The quality and caliber of your performers was truly world class and the venue was perfect with the river running alongside. Everything seemed to go off without a flaw. It's hard to understand why more people didn't go to this festival."

We certainly agree!!! Thanks for the kind words and thanks to everyone who did show up. Please continue to spread the word so we can really blow this thing up next year.
