The Festival, called “one of the area’s most innovative music showcases” by KPBS, features dozens of performances of creative music of all kinds curated by CMF Founder and Artistic Director, composer/violinist Matt McBane. The weekend includes free (with suggested donation) indoor and outdoor concerts at various venues, beer garden, food trucks, artisan market, and pop-up art gallery.

The Festival programming is an eclectic mix of creative and adventurous music ranging from contemporary classical, indie rock, world, electronic, and jazz music, to musicians who work across genres and fall between the cracks.
