In Vermont, local music festivals have some enduring and endearing qualities. One such foundational tenet is, obviously, a strong slate of homegrown music. While many fests might draw attention with a big-name national headliner or two, more often than not the musical menus have a distinct locavore flavor. So do the food menus. Your little two-day bash ain't no kind of local music festival without at least three hip food trucks and sponsorship from one of the state's roughly 7,382 breweries or cideries. And it needs to be in an idyllic setting — ideally along a lake or river or, even better, in some remote mountain hollow or pasture with minimal cell service. Oh, and there should probably be some visual art component, too. Because why not? If that all seems a touch formulaic ... it is. But it's a damn good formula, as evidenced by the likes of the Manifestivus, the Frendly Gathering and Solar Fest, to name but a few Green Mountain faves. The template for a classic Vermont music festival is so potent, in fact, that it's been transported across state lines.

Aside from the fact that it's in Elizabethtown, N.Y., OMGD — which runs this Friday through Sunday, September 9 through 11 — checks off every box for a quintessential local music fest. Tasty local food vendors? Uh-huh. A rustic-chic aesthetic thanks to cool outsider art? Yep. A remote woodsy setting affording loads of camping space? Oh, yeah.

Highlights this year include vintage R&B darlings Kat Wright and the Indomitable Soul Band, psych-pop phenoms Madaila, Smooth Antics offshoot smalltalker, jazz-hip-hop-fusion act Billy Dean & the Honor Roll, rockers Apartment 3, bilingual indie-folk songwriter Francesca Blanchard, and blues-folk songwriter Eric George, among many others. Why the reliance on Vermont bands at an upstate New York festival? Aside from proximity, it's because the OMGD's roots are actually in Burlington — specifically, a South End apartment shared by eight of the festival's cofounders dubbed "the Range." "We had a basement with a bar, a mini-ramp and a stage," said Quillan George recently at a…
