Gourmet Dinner for Two with Artists at High Sierra Music Festival!
High Sierra Music Festival is known as “The Ultimate Intimate Festival Experience”. One reason the bands favor their experience is the world class food served to them by the festival’s resident “celebrity chefs,” Larry Bressler and Michael Trevors. Until now, that’s something only artists experienced.
At this year’s festival however, Chef Larry and Chef Michael will be cooking up very special backstage meals as a fundraiser for the nonprofit organization HeadCount. This is the only way you and a friend can join in!
Do High Sierra in style and support HeadCount’s ongoing efforts to inspire participation in democracy!
Chef Larry and Chef Michael will be crafting an intimate, specially-prepared gourmet meal for four High Sierra Music Festival attendees, on July 3. Also in attendance will be Del McCoury, Brendan Bayliss and Jake Cinnenger of Umphrey’s McGee, High Sierra Music Festival co-producer David Margulies, and JamBase founder Andy Gadiel. Great conversation and great food will be in order. The menu for this meal is as follows:

His love of food and the craft of flavor combinations have contributed to his 35+ years in the business.

If it tastes predominantly like one ingredient then you have used too much.”
