The Garden of Eden festival has long been a cornerstone of Strangefolk’s legacy, drawing fans from across the region to celebrate the band’s unique blend of jam, rock, folk, and progressive sounds. The 2025 festivities will bring together the group’s original lineup-Jon Trafton, Erik Glockler, Reid Genauer, and Luke Smith-for two nights of music, community, and celebration in the scenic surroundings of Jay Peak.
Strangefolk last performed together at the 2019 Garden of Eden festival. The band’s return to Jay Peak continues a tradition that began in 1996 in Eden Mills, Vermont, and from which the events name is derived. Eden has always been a highlight for both longtime followers and newcomers to the Strangefolk community. Concert goers can expect two sets from Strangefolk each night as well as Seth Yacavone Band (8/22) and Pink Talking Fish (8/23)
