It had to be a cool Saturday evening when the moon is full (or close to it) and the hint of Fall is in the air.  The woods can be dark but moonlight makes it inviting.   Place was important because a stage in the woods at a tree house seemed to touch the imagination of audience and performer alike – and they all came. And our listeners were just right in number (about 100) and their appreciation for what they were listening to was there.  Our lineup of talent was still growing just a few days before.

The performers – Jack “Scruffy” Ainsworth, Ty Lenius, Amy Haid, Tami Hix, Kent Gooding, Lee Ann and her group, KMG (Kevin, Mia, and Gus), Lindsey Gayle, Alex and Kent, Gus and the blues band.  That’s ten acts – and they all came just to share music – and thanked us for inviting them.  And there were a bunch of back-up guys too; Jim and Greg on bass, Limbo on mouth harp, Alex O., on guitar, Allen on percussion and the back-up guys with the others.



Gus Gustafson

Several of us worked very hard to try to make this thing come out right but it would have happened anyway without our efforts.  But Gus is the man that pulled it all together organizing equipment, booking the performers, and much more - and we're really thankful to him.  We're proud to say that the Wildernest Treehouse JamFest was a Gus Gustafson Production!!!
