Repost from loveandlight707 We want to hear new voices! Our community is made up of generations of experiences and cultures. Submit a short intro and 3-5 min video/ song. Email: [email protected] If you have questions please email us.... Please title email with your name and AMPLIFY Submission. We will be picking some new artists/voices to uplift. Movement, music, spoken word, are all forms of protests. Let's bring in the new year 2021 by raising our voices. It's time to AMPLIFY and be heard. We demand sustainable change. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow!

Our friends over at Loud As Folk have created a truly impressive way to directly support artists in these times. Check out the new record club with monthly singles, access to an impressive catalogue, as well as records and cassettes! https://www.loudasfolk.com/recordclub

Big love and respect to David Rosen of the Sonoma County Gazette for taking the time to listen and share stories from amazing musicians. Three cheers for Eki Shola, Kayatta and Lenkadu!

Our friends B & The Hive recently released an entrancing new EP called Heart Beat https://open.spotify.com/album/4zveX0L4b2ImsXa3bMvrnH Led by the stunning vocals of Brianna Lee, B & The Hive create music straight from the heart, and serve it up with an intensity that is undeniable. Whether belting out a guitar driven anthem, or singing a hauntingly beautiful ballad, the sound remains the same - engaging.

The SoulFire Project is a multi-cultural, nomadic music experience that fuses reggae and cumbia with folk, Afro-Latin, and Caribbean elements, weaving a tapestry of world music that embraces the resilience of the human spirit. With one fist raised in solidarity and the other hand inviting us to join the movement, the group’s powerful blend of world beats and infectious harmonies stand out as a passionate call for coherence between consciousness and action. Touring the America...s since 2009 in their home/studio, a converted 1979 school bus that runs on used vegetable oil and solar power, The SoulFire Project has grown from the street, to the stage, to world music festivals in Central America, Europe and the US. Their live performance is compelling and dynamic. From their boisterous blend of gypsy punk, to acoustic world mixes, to hard-grooving Afro-Latin anthems, their devotion to what they are projecting is as palpable as the beat of the drum. See more

Now that you know the core team of our free fest, we gotta share about the crew that has been with us along the way! It takes a village to raise a #musicfestival, and we have been honored to have some highly skilled kind folks supporting and catalyzing the efforts to bring you the big day. First up is Claire Tiwald; artist, outdoorswoman, teacher, comic book aficionado! Check out more at http://www.clairetiwald.com/ When did you start with RSMF? 2018... What jobs have you done with RSMF? Assistant director of RSMF, helping to ensure that all the little pieces fell into place. What other kind of work do you do, or organizations do you work with? I’m an artist, illustrator, and graphic designer. I teach art for Nimbus Arts a non profit studio in St Helena. I've also worked as a wilderness guide in California and across the USA. What do you love about music from the North Bay or any fun memory of RSMF? I loved catching sets while striding around the festival and knowing that I was one of the many reasons all those people got together to make the incredible art that is #RSMF. I also loved the little hail storm that came that instead of scaring people off just made them party harder! It was a really magical experience working with everyone for the festival.
