Bands such as Foster the People, Beirut and Modest Mouse have found a home at MusicFestNW, which is a great place to hear a new up-and-coming band!

No matter what music festivals you decide to attend this summer, make sure to have some concert outings with friends, supporting musical talents. The shows go on, rain or shine, because the show must go on!

Music ornaments are a great way to commemorate music festivals and concerts this summer! We can personalize them with an event name, concert, person’s name, favorite artist or a combination of the above. Music ornaments make the perfect keepsakes for remembering fun music festivals long after the last of the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer end. With 25 different guitar ornaments to choose from, we’ve got the perfect instrument!
