Every year, music lovers, artists, and party people gather for a gentle yet gigantic music festival in the Double JJ Resort in Rothbury, Michigan. This year was no different — except for the weather. Thunder and lightening storms had the organizers evacuating the grounds twice over the span of the long weekend, which ultimately shut things down Sunday evening shortly before Excision was set to take the stage.
Still, the spirit of the festival could not be denied, and acts like Brandi Cyrus, Pretty Lights, Nelly Furtado, Maddy O’Neal, Stranger Things, Cannons, Cannabliss, WestEnd, and more played to a crowd dressed to the eclectic nines. Metro Times photographer Mike Pfeiffer was on hand to capture the scene.
