Today on the show I am speaking with Paul Peck, one of the founding fathers of Bonnaroo. Paul got his start in the music industry as a student at Tulane University. After an inspiring trip to the New Orleans Jazz Fest, he joined the Superfly team that eventually started the first Bonnaroo festival in 2002. In this episode, we get some behind-the-scenes stories on how that came together, and how he put together "super jams" where artists who ordinarily wouldn't perform together join forces on stage.
Paul recently started his own festival, Okeechobee, in Florida and is now serving as the president of the fundraising platform Fandiem. We don't have our normal song samples throughout this episode, but I found Paul's stories of creating and putting on these festivals amazing, and I hope you do as well! Please enjoy, Paul Peck!
