If yesterday was as crazy for you SunFest-ers as it was for me, today should provide some relief. It's unofficial indie/folk/soul day at SunFest as of five minutes ago when I decided to call it that. To prove my point, here are some opening acts throughout the...
Twenty-five years and 11 albums later, 311 is still keeping the crowd happy. They know how to play for a festival crowd, even if it means breaking out some of the songs they're a little tired of playing. "I wish we’d mix up the set list a...
When the gates of SunFest open each day, there is not usually a mad dash to any of the stages (maybe just to the bars), but yesterday was different. Teen and pre-teen girls (and a few guys too, don’t try to deny it) rushed to...
Background: I had the pleasure of interviewing Boston’s guitarist Gary Pihl a few weeks back, and inevitably Sammy Hagar came up in conversation. Pihl, who has played with Boston since 1985, caught his first big break playing in the Sammy Hagar band. In the interview,...

Celebrating their 25th anniversary as a band, alternative/rock/reggae/fusion band 311 is set to take the SunFest stage this Friday, May 1. Their 13th studio album, “STER3OL1TH1C,” released in March of last year, peaking at No. 6 on the US charts and at No. 1 on the...
You can’t kick off five days of sun, music, art, and delicious drinks without a party. Thankfully, Lenny Kravitz, the Grammy-award winning singer-songwriter, record producer, actor and model (He is a model, right?), was on the Ford Stage to jump start our hearts. First off, I’d...
Wednesday evening was one of the most perfect opening days for SunFest I can recall. The weather gods directed all rain to the north and south of West Palm Beach. Light gray skies and a salty breeze kept attendees cool and protected from the sun. I...
Day one is done! Taking us into Thursday is another slew of wonderful acts. First, Jonnie Morgan Band will ease us into the day. We previously previewed the Florida grown band and had the splendid opportunity to interview them in 2013! A new act I’m looking forward...
