TRKfest 2010 date and performers announced!

Trekky Records is proud to announce the return of TRKfest, our annual Summertime blissfest, on Saturday, June 26th at Piedmont Biofuels in Pittsboro, NC. This year's festival will build upon the framework of the last two years, growing from a fledgling annual event to an essential expression of the North Carolina music scene, as well as the broader underground community. TRKfest 2010 will feature a second stage, more bands, and a dedicated commitment to local businesses and environmental responsibility.

This will be the third annual TRKfest. The event began as a one-off fundraiser for the Trekky Records Collective in 2008, but has transformed into an annual event, returning each year by popular demand. As always, the festival will take place at Piedmont Biofuels, a charming industrial biodiesel plant and organic farm nestled into the beautiful Pittsboro countryside. With the help of Piedmont Biofuels and The Abundance Foundation, we will attempt to minimize the ecological impact of the festival, reducing waste and emphasizing local and sustainable foods and drinks.

In addition to the music, the day will be bursting with other activities. Attendees will be able to play volleyball, cool off under the sprinklers, vibe out in the Bliss Tent, purchase local clothing and crafts, tour the biodiesel facility and dance til they collapse, all while listening to some of the finest music North Carolina has to offer.

Admission will be a $10 suggested donation. No person will be turned away. This is a family friendly event! The rain date is Sunday, June 27th, but, c'mon, its not going to rain on TRKfest!
