Every June—for the past five decades—music fans known as Festivarians have made their annual pilgrimage to the box canyon town of Telluride, Colorado, for the legendary Telluride Bluegrass Festival. Inspired by the beauty of the natural landscape and the skillfully played music from a multitude of genres, this legendary gathering has long been a bucket list destination for musicians and music fans alike.

The 2023 Gem and Jam is one to be remembered! This year’s festival had workshops on topics from mycology to movement to mindfulness, musical performers & guests that blew our socks off, and spaces that cultivated groundedness and inspiration.

Bill Nershi (The String Cheese Incident) & Jilian Nershi have announced a 13-date spring tour featuring fellow bandmate and String Cheese Incident percussionist Jason Hann, marking the first time ever touring as a trio and first full spring tour for Bill & Jilian.  The tour will kick off on March 16 in Boulder, CO, before traveling to the West Coast in April.  Tickets for the West Coast tour are on sale Wednesday, Feb 1, at 10am local time (other tour dates currently on sale).

Today, the iconic experimental rock band, The String Cheese Incident has announced dates for their Spring Tour 2023. The run will kick off at the Backwoods Music Festival in Ozark, Arkansas, before the band heads through the Midwest in Milwaukee, Madison, Chicago, and St. Paul, before wrapping up in the Southeast in Asheville, at Salvage Station.

To close out 2022, The String Cheese Incident decided to play it close to home and ring in the new year at Denver’s musical gem, the intimate Mission Ballroom. Topping out at 4,000 heads, getting to see SCI in such a small venue for three consecutive nights and so close to their own front doors meant that the band and extended community were in for a sold-out homecoming of sorts filled with familiar faces from both sides of the stage.

After a tremendous 2022 campaign that saw thousands of merrymakers flock to Swanzey, NH, Northlands Music and Arts Festival is gathering steam heading into this year's edition. On June 16-17 over twenty-five regional and nationally touring acts will take the stage and captivate attendees with their musical mastery. Northlands Music and Arts Festival has emerged on the scene as one of the summer’s most anticipated boutique gatherings, offering an impressive lineup and unforgettable experiences in the New Hampshire countryside.

The String Cheese Incident, a genre-bending band commonly included in the jam band community, will be inducted into Colorado Music Hall of Fame on December 29, 2022, at the first of three shows at the Mission Ballroom. Don Strasburg, board member of Colorado Music Hall of Fame and co-president of AEG Presents, along with The Hall’s founder Chuck Morris, will formally induct the band that night.

With less than two months away from Gem & Jam’s 15th annual edition, the three-day music and arts festival has added more than 40 acts to its already stacked lineup.

After a dazzling 2022 campaign, Northlands Music and Arts Festival is thrilled to announce its return to Swanzey, NH, June 16-17, 2023. The forthcoming event, celebrating its second year, will see over thirty regional and nationally touring acts perform on the palatial fairground nestled in the heart of southern New Hampshire. Headlining acts will include veteran Colorado jam sextet The String Cheese Incident, Phish bassist Mike Gordon, Goose acoustic offshoot Orebolo, and high-octane rockers Andy Frasco and the U.N.

“The more diverse music one has experienced, the better idea one has in forming a complete definition of music… Cultural expression and learning operate within a boundary. Diversity comes from outside of this boundary and leads to more learning, which enriches cultural expression...”  - C. Victor Fung | The Role of Musical Diversity in Redefining Music: Towards Rich and Meaningful Life Experiences

Music is a fluid phenomenon. It consistently transcends, embodies, and actualizes, throughout the differential matter of time and space.
