We\u2019re less than a week from the 47th edition of Rye Bread Festival, held in the Eastern New York hills of Schaghticoke<\/a>, a gathering of musicians from across the Northeast and beyond, headlined by none other than Oteil Burbridge<\/a> and Friends over July 27-29.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rye Bread has been a unique experience since inception, when it was initially held on an island in the Mohawk River, being an event that started as an \u2018in the know\u2019 gathering for live music and camping – Neal and Alan Evans performed there in the years prior to forming Soulive – before evolving into a full on festival set in the Capital District at the Schaghticoke Fairgrounds. What started as a backyard party nearly 50 years ago, Rye Bread has steadily grown, from the ground up, into Upstate New York\u2019s premier music and arts festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Rye Bread is more than just a concert festival – this is a family with generations of deep roots, bringing people together through music in a spirit of community and charity, and of course good times for all. Thousands more will be welcomed into the Rye Bread Family with open arms, in their 47th year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
