Your destination: Hunter Mountain, New York.
Your objective: Mountain Jam
Your countdown: one day to the Pre-festival party (You’re not going to miss that, are you?!?)

Mountain Jam kicks off this Thursday (June 15) with the aforementioned pre-fest party headlined by Marco Benevento. Get in early so you have a good camping spot and your bearings for the next three amazing days.

Friday it gets real in a big hurry, with 13 performers, including The String Cheese Incident, The Revivalists, Elephant Revival, The Head and the Heart, and White Denim.

Saturday is even more packed, with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers headlining, joined by Gary Clark, Jr., St. Paul and the Broken Bones, Moon Hooch, Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives, and lots more.

Things easy up — slightly — in terms of numbers of bands but not music, as you check out The Steve Miller Band, Peter Frampton, Michael Franti and Spearhead, TAUK, and Holly Bowling at the top of the list.
