“Strictly Roots” Festival

 —  —

Everson, WA 98247 United States

The 4th Annual Blackberry Jam is ON in the foothills just outside of Everson WA.

We’re doing things a bit different this year and have GREATLY expanded the artist line-up. Artists are coming from as far off as Hawaii, across the US, Africa, Canada and even a VERY special guest from London England (announcement coming soon!).

Some additional information you may wish to know:

  • This year we are showcasing and focusing on the music and culture of Mother Africa and the diaspora of the Caribbean…”Strictly Roots” is the theme.

  • We are focusing on Quality over quantity. That means 100% of gross ticket revenue is going towards a highly stacked line-up of world class artists - far and wide our strongest line-up yet. Ticket prices are higher than last year, but the value is extraordinary for the dollar spent. While we’ve jacked the artist roster up we are looking to keep the audience relatively small for the quality of the artists coming. This will ensure all the right people are here and the vibe intimate and unique. We're deliberately keeping it small and one of those reason is to create an opportunity for people get to know each other and also feel connected to the artists. Weekend Passes are $111 Friday to Sunday, and include camping, parking etc. and we are selling only 111 Weekend Passes! Again, aiming for quality over quantity. We expect passes to sell out so choose your crew and make it happen. A limited number of One & Two Day Passes are also available for locals not spending the night. Children 12 and under are free. No dogs please.

  • We have in place a solid rain mitigation plan should it rain, but historically this time of year has been clear. There is of course camping and a host of amenities available here for you.

We're not promoting this much on the web or really anywhere. So you won’t see a lot of promotions or information about it. We're focusing on personal invitations and keeping our web presence low this year and details will be sent to ticket purchasers. Questions can come to me via DM. DM me for volunteer opportunities. And stay tuned for more artist announcements in the coming weeks. We're working on some very special guest performances TBA soon!

Much Love & Gratitude,

Reg
