Briefly: Electric Forest Comes to Rothbury

Back in October, we spoke with Billy Nershi of the String Cheese Incident about the group’s Hulaween concerts and he broke the news that SCI would throw its own festival at the Double JJ Resort in Rothbury, MI. While that site hosted two multi-band Rothbury Festivals in 2008 and 2009, Nershi noted that this summer’s event would be different…

“We’re also planning on doing something next summer at the Rothbury site. That will be a weekend festival with a lot of String Cheese sets. It’ll be different from Rothbury in that it will be more like our thing at Horning’s, where String Cheese plays every night, and it will include bands in our String Cheese family with art installations and that kind of thing.”

Today, SCI’s Facebook page pointed people towards electricforestfestival.com with a message saying, “we’ve made our 4th of July plans… see you in the forest!” Is this the String Cheese-centric festival Billy told us about? We’ll have to wait until February 28th for the full website and initial line up announcement, but it certainly seems that way. For now, all that has been revealed is that the Electric Forest Festival will take place at the Double JJ Resort from June 30 – July 3.
