We have been chomping at the bit to announce this one!
Since our very first Laurel Cove Music Festival, it has been a dream to one day be able to create a live vinyl record to capture the magic at the Cove. Before we could think about a project like that, we knew that we as a festival crew needed to have our event running like clockwork before adding something else that would require a lot of effort and attention. But holy smokes….are we glad we waited until now.
 
We are proud to announce today, that dream is finally coming true. Through the help of some super talented individuals, we will be releasing a one time run of “Music Blooms Here: Live From Laurel Cove Music Festival 2024”. This album features ten incredible tracks from The Red Clay Strays, Wyatt Flores, Drayton Farley, John R. Milller, Nolan Taylor, Taylor Hunnicutt, Kindred Valley, Noeline Hoffman, Jim Goodin, and Smilo & The Ghost. These tracks sound absolutely incredible: polished and smooth, while capturing the raw energy and essence of Laurel Cove. They will instantly take you back to each respective set in what we think was our best year yet. The records are projected to be ready by late winter/early spring 2025.
 
This vinyl will be not available for digital or streaming release whatsoever, and again will be limited to a single run. All proceeds from our portion of the vinyl sales will be donated to the Friends of the Bell County Animal Shelter. This is a SUPER limited run, and we expect these to go very fast.
We want to thank our producer/audio engineer Juan Barrera who captured the magic of these songs exquisitely, Colonel Tony Moore for the jaw-dropping album art, and Erik Myers from Heady Wax Fiends Record Club for breathing life into a project we thought may never come to fruition. Also, a huge thanks to all the volunteer staff and state park staff who have turned a small festival in Pineville, KY into something truly special, to Rob Hillier with JammNation (and all our sponsors), and most importantly: to everyone who has attended Laurel Cove Music Festival.
