RNV 14: Live From the Sonoma Harvest Music Festival | Con Brio & BR Cohn
The inaugural Sonoma Harvest Music Festival kicked off at BR Cohn Winery deep in th heart of Sonoma Country in Glen Ellen, CA this past weekend. The festival featured two afternoons filled with live music from The Avett Brothers, The Head & The Heart, ZZ Ward, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and many more. The festival was orgainzed in partnership with BottleRock Presents, producers of the massive annual BottleRock Napa Valley Music Festival. Orgaziners wanted to flip the script of Sonoma Harvest and make it the festival for people who don't like festivals,, one stage, all in the afternoon, fewer crowds and lines, and a more relaxed environment.
The festival went off as planned with fans getting a unique opportunity to get up close with their favorite artists in an unmatched setting, putting a backdrop of vineyards and rolling hills behind the stage. Rock'N Vino took our first field trip for a live episode from the Sonoma Harvest Music Festival. First up, we'll talk with Ziek McCarter, frontman for the San Francisco-based Con Brio, who are touring in support of their latest album, Explorer. Con Brio kicked off the festival's second day with a phenomneal performance that brought fans to their feet early in the day.
Next up, we'll speak with Michael Domer, Director of Operations for Vintage Wine Estates, who own and operate the BR Cohn Winery. We'll talk to Michael about the orgiins of the festival, all about the history of the BR Cohn property, and the possible future plans for the Sonoma Harvest Music Festival.
