Inside Larry Keel's Electric Larry Land — with Drummer Jesse Shultzaberger

Описание: In this episode of Music Festivals Podcast, I’m hanging out with Jesse Shultzaberger, the powerhouse drummer behind Larry Keel’s Electric Larry Land. Jesse’s a staple in the East Coast jam and bluegrass world, and he’s got some awesome stories to tell. We dive into how he picked up the drums thanks to his dad, all the bands he’s been part of (like the Woodsheders, the Randy Thompson Band, and his own Jazz Assembly), plus what it’s like juggling life as both a touring musician and a dedicated teacher. He even gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the new Electric Larry Land album that’s in the works—there are a couple singles out now, with the full record dropping next year.

We also preview the 21st Watermelon Pickers Festival happening September 4–6 down in Berryville, Virginia, where Jesse will be taking the stage with both Electric Larry Land and the Woodsheders. Jesse shares some insider tips on the Clark County Fairgrounds (45 minutes from his house), what makes this fest such a gem, and how to get the most out of your time in Berryville.
