Laser Lights During The Pet Shop Boys |
After taking
a break for 2013, Moogfest came back stronger than ever in Asheville, North
Carolina for an epic five-day adventure of sound and art. Opting to move from its usual position in
late October to beautiful April, festival organizers have saved traveling
patrons from the overpriced hotel rooms associated with Autumn in the
mountains. With the addition of the
daytime events including lectures, talks, performances, and workshops, Moogfest
has secured itself as an east coast commodity.
With the pioneer of electronic music and inventor the Moog Synthesizer,
Bob Moog having called Asheville his home for many years, and with the Bob Moog
Foundation and the Moog Factory both located in Asheville, it feels natural to
bring such an amazing event back to the mountains of North Carolina. Moogfest carries the strong theme of new
technologies, futurism, and synth-heavy music.
Music lovers and geeks unite to watch over 100 musical performances and
dozens of educational and interactive talks and workshops.
