Fans of Perpetual Groove have a chance to see the jam band in a more intimate setting this weekend at Amberland.
Now in its eighth year, the annual gathering “serves as part backyard barbecue and part interactive showcase that celebrates Perpetual Groove and the community that has grown around the Athens, Ga.-based band,” according to organizers.
The three-day festival (today through Sunday) will feature six sets by the band, as well as a performance by Lazy B & the Recliners, a P-Groove side project, and Brockfest, a solo set featuring frontman Brock Butler.
Events will take place at Cherokee Farms in LaFayette, Ga., and camping is mandatory, as there is no daily re-entry.
Following the 2010 release of the band’s fourth studio album, “Heal,” Amberland will be broken into three distinct nights, each with its own concept.
