Somewhere Out There - Music and Arts Festival

08/20/2019

A huge thank you to the artists, organizers, volunteers, and attendees who came together to make Somewhere Out There 2019 a raging success! We overcame a thunderstorm, and a power outage, with just a comically undersized generator and the tech genius of our plucky sound guy. All in all it was a beautiful celebration of life in the foothills of Worcester, Vermont that a little storm couldn't wash out!

We also raised $2,795 for the Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights. Its just a drop in the bucket, and there is a lot more good work to be done, but it feels good to send good energy in the right direction.

Thanks all!

Facebook won't allow us to "boost" Somewhere Out There 2019... something about controversial issues, Russian bots, and a lack of press credentials. This setback is an opportunity for more grassroots action!

Somewhere Out There needs your help to share our event! Put it on your page, DM your friends, call your mother and tell her to come out this Saturday night!

We are so close to getting all the finest folks in central Vermont together to celebrate life and raise money for an amazing cause (the Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights), now all we need is YOU! Spread the word, get yaself Out There, and have a great time.

We'll see ya this Saturday : )

Here's another rockstar to look forward to this August!!

"Bishop LaVey, A DoomFolk Singer-Songwriter hailing from the growing Montpelier Music scene creates his own twisted brand of folk music. While the guitar stylings are similar to the folk acts of the mid 2000s, his lyricism focuses less on old labor stories and American folklore and more on themes ranging from addiction and off-the-rails personal relationships to the apocalypse and dystopia. His vocal stylings do even more to separate him from the herd with a voice that sounds like a bizarre cross between Tom Waits and Layne Staley.”

Thank you all for coming out and making the Somewhere Out There 2018 - Music and Arts Festival a raging success! Together we were able to raise $4,116 for our two causes, the Community Health Initiative in Haiti, and the Johnny Morris Fund.

Not only were we able to amass such a generous contribution to two worthy causes, but we had a great time doing it. Thank you to all the attendees, donors, musicians, artists, vendors, and volunteers who put a lot of blood, sweat, and smiles, into what was truly an awesome night!

Please remember that there is always more good work to do, and to make space in your life to do something for the benefit of others. Any further donations to our causes can be made directly to CHI (below)or make a donation to Johnny via his friend and musical collaborator, Dustin Byerly (aka Sed One). Thank you all again so much for what was truly an awesome celebration of life.

We hope to see you all again soon, Somewhere Out There...

Every dollar makes an impact on our projects, programs, initiatives, and in the lives of our Haitian partners, patients, and friends.

The festival was a beautiful success with great music, great art, and great people coming together to enjoy the beautiful foothills of Worcester, Vermont. The musicians, artists, and crew put their all into making sure everyone had a great time, and we decided to put our all into the cause we support. Based on our initial profit sharing scheme (half of net proceeds), Doctors Without Borders wasn't going to get a very tasty slice of the pie. So we took 100% of the gate, presales, merchandise, and vendor fees and put it in an envelope to Doctors Without Borders. These folks are risking their lives to deliver medical care for the worlds most vulnerable in very compromised circumstances, and are worthy of our support. So I hope everyone who came out and forked over their hard earned dollars for a night of celebration takes comfort in knowing their debauchery was for a good cause! And if anyone needs any syrup, we happen to know a place where you can get some.... See ya'll next year!
