Nowoodstock was started in 2001 by Pat O’Brien and Jana Hamption. Its inception came from the dearth of live music in the area but the incredible amount of musical talent. Envisioning showcasing Wyoming artists Nowoodstock carries on with that tradition to this day, seven of the nine bands are either from Wyoming or have close ties with the greater Wyoming community. Every year Nowoodstock gets a
little bigger, and enjoys every new person who attends. Nowoodstock would like to congratulate the only musician who has played every year, Jalan Crossland, for winning the Governor’s Award in Arts. Our success is largely due to Jalan’s presence every year. Also a huge thanks to the people who continue to rock out with us, as always we look forward to another great weekend with you this year!
