Ogden Friends of Acoustic Music

OFOAM's Mission is to bring live music to Ogden and provide free music education opportunities for youth.

Exposure to music at a young age can change one's life. There is significant research to support that kids who play musical instruments do better in all walks of life. Children and youth 16 and younger get in FREE to all OFOAM events, and OFOAM keeps ticket costs comparatively low for a high quality 3-day family-friendly festival experience with camping on site, and outstanding line-ups that appeal to diverse, all-ages audiences.

OFOAM is an all-volunteer 501-c-3 non-profit organization that contributes significantly to the vibrant arts and recreation community in Ogden. Over 60% of our operating budget is for artist fees. Far from being observers, attendees become active participants in the OFOAM Festival Community through kids activities, vending, sponsorship, volunteerism, and campground jams. Beyond the music, people also fall in love with Weber County's stunning natural beauty and recreational opportunities. The Ogden Music Festival has becomean annual tradition for families and friends.

SnOwFOAM with Booker T. Jones

After a sold-out concert at The State Room in 2018, Booker T. Jones is planning another night of modern soul music, this time at Peery's Egyptian Theater in Ogden.

Peery's is an historic venue fit for the father of modern soul music, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Musicians Hall of Fame inductee and GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award recipient.

You will NOT want to miss this performance, especially because Booker T. Jones hasn't performed in the Ogden Area since 2015 when OFOAM presented Jones at the Ogden Valley Roots & Blues Festival.

The Joe McQueen Quartet will open the show. You don't want to miss this year's snOwFOAM!

The Infamous Stringdusters Announced for Ogden Music Festival 2019

The Infamous Stringdusters are a band that never stops progressing. Pushing the envelope within the confines of the bluegrass genre has garnered the band IBMA awards and nominations, and international success. 2018 represented a high watermark for the quintet as they took home a GRAMMY® Award in the category of “Best Bluegrass Album” for their 2017 release "Laws of Gravity". Since 2007, the band’s ever-evolving artistry and boldly creative collaborations — including Ryan Adams, Joss Stone, Bruce Hornsby, Joan Osborne, and Lee Ann Womack — have pushed them past the edges of traditional acoustic music and carved out a musical niche all their own in the hearts of fans and critics, alike.
Cane Mill Road booked for 2019 Ogden Music Festival

Growing up just down the road from Doc Watson, Billboard-charting artists Cane Mill Road rock the traditional bluegrass standards they grew up on, yet boldly tackle writing original music that often walks the lines between Bluegrass, Americana, Old-time, and Folk. Peers in the bluegrass industry voted Cane Mill Road as one of five nominees for the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Momentum Band-of-the-Year for 2018 — an award to honor rising music stars under 30 years of age. Cane Mill Road’s banjo player, Tray Wellington, was nominated for IBMA’s Momentum Instrumentalist of the Year. IBMA selected Cane Mill Road as a Ramble showcase band in 2017, making the band one of 30 bands in bluegrass to be chosen for the honor. Audiences love Cane Mill Road’s high-energy performances, easy going rapport both on and off stage, and the eclectic mix of originals and standards in the show.
Chris Jones & The Night Drivers Join the 2019 Ogden Music Festival Lineup

Chris Jones is a quadruple threat as a singer, a songwriter, a guitarist, and, thanks to his role hosting SiriusXM’s Bluegrass Junction, as one of the most widely heard broadcasting voices in bluegrass music. His immediately recognizable voice, warm sense of humor and abundance of talent have combined to make him one of the music’s most distinctive personalities, and one of its strongest artists. Forming Chris Jones & The Night Drivers in the mid 1990s, he’s led the band through a set of stellar recordings and tours while appearing and recording with some of the world’s most respected musicians including The Chieftains, Earl Scruggs, Vassar Clements and Tom T. Hall. He has performed on the The Grand Ole Opry with Laurie Lewis, Lynn Morris, and The Whitstein Brothers. And, while the Night Drivers have made extensive use of his original songs, Chris’ songs have also been recorded by other artists, including the Gibson Brothers, Lou Reid & Carolina and The Chapmans.
The Band of Heathens Announced for Ogden Music Festival 2019

The term “Americana” was practically invented to describe The Band of Heathens, a rock n roll band based in Austin, TX. "Duende", the title of The Band of Heathens’ fifth studio album (and eighth overall), marks their tenth anniversary as a group and sits among the other great recording projects The Band of Heathens have accomplished over the years. Americana stalwarts The Band of Heathens recently went into their hometown studio in Austin, deciding to record their own version of the classic Ray Charles album A Message From The People. In a time where the downtrodden need a voice again, the Heathens have delivered the message paying homage to one of the most important voices in American song history.
