by Jim Donovan

Happy Summer Rhythm Family!

Here is a list of upcoming summer festivals where you can truly get your groove on!

6.20.09 Hunker, PA : Farm Festival only $10!!
This one is very low key, kid friendly and cheap! Come for the day. Eat organic food, drumming for you, drumming for the kids, Drum the Ecstatic concert in the evening...

7.2 and 7.3.09 Artemis, PA : Drum and Splash Festival
If counter-culture and creating a new vision for sustainable living is your thing then you will love Drum and Splash. Lot's of great workshops, music, nature. Swimming in the stream. Camping too.. I'll be teaching several workshops over these 2 days. Yoga of Drum and Chant, Drumming Ecstasy & Evolution, and Rhythm Renewal Workshop...

7.4.09 Sherman, NY : Great Blue Heron Music Festival
One of my personal favorites, I'll be teaching a large afternoon workshop and probably sitting in with friends here and there. There is amazing roots music, camping, food, late night zydeco dance...

7.10.09 Masontown, WV : The All Good Festival
If you're looking to see some of the best jam-bands in the country at a large exciting festival, you will love All Good. They also are committed to bringing education and environmental awareness to their festival goers..
I will be doing a Rhythm Renewal Drumming Workshop at noon and performing my 400,000 People, Carlos Santana and me...performance/story around 4pm.
