Down County Jump

Brought to you by members of the curator team of Old Tone Roots Music Festival comes a new daylong musical odyssey. A tone that hangs over high wide mountain tops, sinking down into narrow hollers, and wading through damp winding bayous. A sound that stumbles into the hooch-houses of Storyville and around the smokey tables of Chez Florence. It wafts over the lush breezy islands of the Pacific and Caribbean and it roars in the swirling swollen ocean itself that connects them all: a syncopated melodic longing that can’t be restrained. A grainy, warm, spirited Voodoo vibrato that pulses with soul and sass through decade after decade of music from the Americas and their surrounding ports of call.

Come celebrate this wide net of human expression at THE DOWN COUNTY JUMP MUSIC FESTIVAL. A full day and night of spirited transformative performances from some of the most dedicated roots musicians anywhere focusing in vernacular music that spans from 1860 to 1960. From Gypsy Waltzes to Swamp-Pop Two-Steps to Haitian Rasin Chants to Olde Time Breakdowns to Sea Shanties to Hawaiian Hapa Haole to post-war New Orleans R&B to Jamaican Rock Steady - THE JUMP will offer some of the most danceable shuffles this side of the civil war.

Hosted in the towering music barn at the bucolic mountainside retreat of the Race Brook Lodge in Sheffield, Massachusetts - ticket holders will receive a discount on rooms. Food, hiking, campfire gatherings and kids activities will be available on the sprawling grounds.
