- The Solid Sound Festival ran from June 24-26
As you may already know, the second annual Solid Sound Festival, a 3-day festival showcasing Music, Art, Comedy and Community, was held last weekend in North Adams Massachusetts. Wilco, The Levon Helm Band, The Autumn Defense, Morgan Murphy, Wyatt Cenac and Eugene Mirman were among the slew of performers from the music, comedy and art worlds. Reviews of the fest were generally great, despite a few instances of rain, which, one could argue, made the sets all the more bad-ass. Below are some videos from the fest, including one of Wilco playing “The Weight” with The Levon Helm Band. Yes, it’s as awesome as you imagined it to be.
