Episode 115 -We Have Melted: Summer Meltdown Part 1

No Simple Road

We're back from a much needed break with Part 1 of our recap of Summer Meltdown! This marathon episode is packed with goodness! Jump in the car with us as we head to Darrington Music & Bluegrass Park for the most amazing festival Washington has ever known! We've got interviews and live music from Sara Clarke of Dirty Revival (45:55:00), Nahko Bear (01:29:00), Dirtwire (02:10:00), and finally a campsite interview and music from Portland's own Hillstomp (02:57:00).

If you were lucky enough to be there this year this episode will bring you back to feel the feelings all over again and if you couldn't make it it'll be the next best thing to being there! So, put on your best festival costume, let your freak flag fly, and come along with the No Simple Road Crew as we begin our Melt!

And don't forget to stay tuned for next week's Part 2 where we'll have interviews with Ryan Stasik from Umphrey's McGee, the guys from Spafford, High Step Society, and a live podcast from The Forest Stage of Summer Meltdown complete with tears and Om's!
