Are you ready to party? I know we are.

That’s why we’ve put together this third installment of Podcast Picks to help you get ready for this weekend’s 7th Annual Wildwood MusicFest & Campout in beautiful Sheridan, OR, USA. And to kick things off, we fire away with three of the acts that will take you higher on the festival’s opening night: GravelRoad, Liz Cooper & The Stampede, and Jeff Crosby & The Refugees.

Liz Cooper and her band The Stampede with cast a spell with their rock and soul on Friday night at Wildwood.

Friday night should be special with these excellent acts performing, and with the night wrapping around the campfire with The Turkey Buzzards. Then it’s on to Saturday’s lineup, featuring bands with some of the most acclaimed and anticipated indie albums of the year, including The Resolectrics, Western Centuries and Sarah Shook & The Disarmers.

Don’t forget to stick around Sunday when The Wildwood All Star Review finishes the festival with its usual surprise party of killer country rock. It all adds up to what should be an unforgettable weekend of fun, friends, food, family and MUSIC!

Look for our Podcast hosts Eric Kotila and Mike Lee — they’ll be serving as MCs from the stage, sharing important announcements and introducing the bands. And be sure to thank your festival hosts Katie Kendall and Kim Hamblin if you cross paths — these ladies are the engine that drives the festival to new heights each year.

Welcome back for our second installment of podcast picks, aimed at getting your ears ready for the 2018 Wildwood MusicFest & Campout, set for July 20-22 at Roshambo Art Farm in the beautiful Willamina/Sheridan area of Oregon.

With the festival just days away, we thought we’d kick off this session with The Resolectrics, Portland’s powerhouse R&B-tinged rock trio with a set scheduled for Saturday afternoon at the festival. This will be the band’s second performance at Wildwood, and this year’s set comes with the promise of a new album due in the fall.

Knowing the rollicking fun this band inspires, they’re an easy “must see” pick for our podcast team. Based in the classic rock and soul of the 60s and 70s, The Resolectrics take it to new heights by mixing in some psychedelic guitar and killer harmonies for a sound that’s all their own.

And they’re just one reason why this year’s festival is a can’t-miss for lovers of music from all over the spectrum. Check out the live performance of “Easier To Go” from the group Five Letter Word (video below), the classic country of “Weight of The World” by Western Centuries, and the wonderful, exploring horns on “Aynotche Terebu” by Tezeta Band. High quality stuff in a variety of styles — that’s what Wildwood is all about.

So give this latest set of picks a listen and put a check next to your “can’t miss” picks for the festival. We’ll see you down there.

Here’s the playist. Enjoy!

It’s our favorite time of the year, when the summer season of music festivals hits its peak, and the gang from That Much Further West Podcast couldn’t be more stoked to be attending the 7th Annual Wildwood MusicFest & Campout, July 20-22 at Roshambo Art Farm in beautiful Sheridan, Oregon, USA.

The podcast team has been onsite every year, and our show hosts Mike Lee and Eric Kotila have served as festival Masters of Ceremonies from the start. We’re thrilled to be invited back by the two wonderful local businesswomen who make the festival happen, Katie Kendall and Kim Hamblin.

Sarah Shook and her band, The Disarmers, will rock your world at the 7th Annual Wildwood MusicFest & Campout.

Lovers of music and their local Willamina/Sheridan community, these two women — with the help of a fabulous team of volunteers — have captained a completely home grown festival with absolutely zero corporate sponsorship. Katie and Kim have put together some stellar line-ups over the years and kept that family-friendly atmosphere alive and well.

They also work hard to showcase local businesses as vendors and give back to the community. The festival has grown over the years but the founders seek to keep it from growing too big. A big shout out to Kim, Katie, their families, Dina Sayers and her team at Great Northwest Productions, and the scores of volunteers who make things run smoothly.

In the run up to this year’s festival, That Much Further West Podcast has put together a batch of preview playlists to give y’all a primer for the music to be featured at the 7th Annual Wildwood MusicFest $ Campout. There will be talent from all over the country and all over and the musical spectrum. Give it a listen and tell us who you are looking forward to hearing/seeing at Wildwood!
