The second edition of our regenerative electronic music festival, celebrating the Summer Solstice and the people and ecosystems of the Hudson Valley is June 19-21, 2026.
A weekend of dancing, Nature music, delicious local food, nurturing local connections and stewarding local habitats — leaving the community and land better than we found them.
This year we're migrating across the river to a new venue in Red Hook, NY and we’re making the whole weekend family friendly with a dedicated family campsite and daily family activities.

The music of Ben Seretan remains hard to pin down - there's the gentle piano clusters of 'Cicada Waves,' the towering drone of 'My Life's Work,' and the ferocious, spicy Italian guitar playing of his newest album 'Allora,' out this July on Tiny Engines, not to mention his weekly writing-and-music project My Big Break. Not just another indie rocker, not just another ambient softie, he rides an unpredictable wave with a tender warrior's heart.

Friends Meeting
"We emerge from an amniotic sleep, gently woken by a lilting guitar riff that ripples into the ether. Daisychains of sunlit arpeggios sway beneath sprawling clouds. Light pours through the trees. Modular plucks echo like bird songs in the morning breeze. Slowly we open our eyes to the great big blue and find we’re not alone; the terror, a mere afterthought in the face of such love, such gratitude, and unending togetherness."
Friends Meeting is the ongoing harmonious handshake between synthesist and enthusiastic disc jockey M. Geddes Gengras and guitar player and gentle music enthusiast Ben Seretan. Sprawling, cosmic, and often pretty dang funky, their circle diagram overlap is a deep, refreshing well.
