For its 2024 return, Marco Benevento’s Follow The Arrow Festival will now shift from its original venue of Accord, NY’s Arrowood Farms. Due to foreboding forecasts of rain, wind, and thunderstorms, the third annual Follow The Arrow will now take place indoors at the newly reopened Bearsville Theater in Woodstock, N.Y., a short drive north from the former setting across the scenic Ashokan Reservoir. The festival is still slated for this Saturday, June 19, and all previously purchased tickets for the event will be honored.

Follow The Arrow Festival is an intimate, single-stage affair, offering a full day of programming from 2 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. with a rootsy feel, in tribute to the classic music festivals and culture of upstate NY. The show will feature three performances from the founder, who will take the stage with his long-running solo project, as leader of the Marco Benevento Family Band and alongside Phish’s Mike Gordon in a headlining duo set. The combo of Benevento and Gordon is both the product of a longstanding relationship as friends and collaborators and persistent efforts from Benevento, who has had Gordon in mind for Follow The Arrow from the start. Read more about the highly anticipated team-up and what to expect onstage in this week’s interview with the artists on jambands.com.

Beyond Benevento, attendees will experience sets from some incomparable innovators from across genres, including Brazillian psych-punk pioneers Os Mutantes, zam-rock figureheads W.I.T.C.H. and Ghost Funk Orchestra, with whom Benevento has toured.
