2. Emerging music and music trends from North America.
3. Utilizing the blog as a sharing platform. B&K encourage and welcome music submissions, stories, videos and photography from fellow festival and music lovers!
This site is dedicated to sharing experiences, stories, music, photography and media from festivals, concerts, good times and everything in between.
