The Frendly Gathering at Timber Ridge

The Frendly Gathering originated as a way to bring friends from all over the world to one place to share the love for music, camping, and most of all FRIENDSHIP. What started as a small get together put on by The Frends Crew, a crew of professional snowboarders who live by the motto “there is no I in Frends,” has now evolved into a three day grass roots music festival. With our main goal simply being, to leave the real world behind, enjoy the fruits of nature, listen to music, and enjoy the company of our friends. With the help our sponsors we are proudly moving into our third annual Frendly Gathering. As more people and more friends have come to enjoy The Frendly Gathering, the history continues and so does the love for friendship, good times, and music.

Here’s the line-up: Beats Antique, Keller Williams, Rubblebucket, Paper Diamond, Conspirator, Assembly of Dust, Tea Leaf Green, Twiddle x2, Toubab Krewe x2, Assembly of Dust, Pierce Fulton, Delicate Steve, Lynx, DJ Equal, Lucid, Jatoba, Aqueous, Jack and the Bear, Chris Kasper, Gold Town, Tall Grass Get Down, and more.
