I was on the Music Festivals Podcast again to discuss the history of Hookahville, recent One Under Shows, and more. Check it out!
In this episode of the Music Festivals Podcast, I sit down for a evening conversation with one of my favorite singer-songwriters, Ed McGee. We talk a walk down memory lane to explore the rich history and Ed's own personal experiences surrounding Hookahville, and Ohio-based Music Festival that has operated for 30 years. Ed reflects on his first Hookahville performance in 1994, sharing how he became part of the festival's origins and his initial connection with the band ekoostik hookah. He shares more on his recent shows with One Under, detailing how the band overcame some unexpected challenges to deliver an incredible performance at last year's Lazy Jam 6 Music Festival. Ed also shares some interesting things about his personal creative process as he discusses writing music for films, including the inspiration behind the 2023 single, "Last Good Knife." We wrap up with stories of Hookahville's past and raise a glass to good friends past.
