The Story

On a cold night during the first few hours of February we were driving home from Champaign, Illinois, and as prisoners of the white lines of the freeway often do, we began reflecting on the past year... "Man," I thought, "we've played with so many amazing bands. How cool would it be if we could bring a bunch of them back home and show everybody here what they're missing!?"

"What do you mean... like a festival?" There was a long pause as we exchanged glances distinctly reading: Hey! That's not a bad idea. We could do that, right?" And we did.

About the Festival

Widow's Peak is a 2-day music and camping festival with over 20 of the absolute best progressive roots artists: folk, blues, bluegrass, country and alt-country. Be the first to discover emerging artists before they make it big (Gee, won't it be fun to say, "I knew them when..."). Enjoy the square mile of picturesque woods, fields, creeks and ponds that beautiful Stonehouse Park has to offer. Chow down on oustanding carnivorous, vegetarian, and vegan food from local restaurants. But most of all, grab a couple friends and make a lifetime of great memories to share down the road!
