Festival Nation: Skull & Roses 2020 Trailer

Author: Pantheon Media January 13, 2020 Duration: 7:23
Festival Nation here on the Pantheon Podcast network is excited to feature an upcoming mini-series on Skull and Roses. Skull & Roses is a multi-day festival which celebrates the music and community that formed around iconic American rock band the Grateful Dead. It returns for its 4th and best installment so far at the holy grail of the West Coast Grateful Dead scene, the Ventura County Fairgrounds (California). Don't miss this celebration April 2-5 with friends, family and the community where you can expect “strangers stopping strangers just to shake their hand.” This year, for the first time, an original member of the Grateful Dead - drummer Bill Kreutzmann - will appear as one of the festival headliners, sharing the long-awaited return of his side project Billy & The Kids. The event has also evolved from bands exclusively performing music of the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia, to now include those that have been inspired and influenced by their timeless music, including many original acts such as Jackie Greene, Circles Around The Sun, Ghost Light, David Nelson Band, Midnight North, Moonalice, and multi-instrumentalist Dave Harrington. Skull & Roses has also expanded to four days, beginning with a Thursday night (April 2) Kick-Off Party featuring Stu Allen & Mars Hotel and a rare performance by Rooster Conspiracy featuring Jay Lane, Reed Mathis, and Todd Stoops. Friday to Sunday the music will run daily from 11:00am to midnight, and until 7:00pm on Sunday on two alternating stages.

There's a particular energy that exists only in a field full of strangers united by a beat, a lyric, a shared sunset. Festival Nation with Marla Davies captures that intangible feeling in every episode. Hosted by the seasoned Bay Area radio voice Marla Davies, this podcast digs into the vibrant culture surrounding music festivals, far beyond just the lineup posters. Conversations here feel like the best kind of festival chat: spontaneous, insightful, and deeply connected to the music. You’ll hear from artists about what it’s really like to step onto that stage, from cultural figures who shape the scene, and from dedicated fans whose stories are the heart of the experience. Together, they explore how these temporary communities are built and why that festival spirit lingers long after the last chord fades. It’s about the enduring power of music to bring people together and create lasting memories. This Pantheon Media production is for anyone who has ever felt that collective rush or wonders what magic happens behind the scenes. Each episode is a reminder that the music is just the beginning of the story.
