Joshua Tree Festival Features an Eclectic Mix of Electronic Music, Psychedelic Rock and World Music in the High Desert of California on Saturday, October 15th

LOS ANGELES, CA. ( Luck Media & Marketing) -Fall is here, High Desert festival season is in full swing, and it's time to head out on the highway and get ready to party under the full moon and stars. Promising an exciting and eclectic array of music, food and fun on the full moon Saturday of October 15, 2005, the first annual Joshua Tree festival will gather some 5,000 folks from all around Southern California and beyond for the year's most exciting musical event.

Held on the 40-acre Joshua Tree Lake Campgrounds with a lake and breathtaking mountain views, the intimate and comfortable festival will feature two stages (a main stage and a side stage) with a compelling mix of well-known and up and coming bands from the realms of electronic, psychedelic rock and world music. Mirroring the broad variety of music will be numerous food vendors offering everything from organic vegetarian selections to Mexican to barbecue. Add to this the easy parking, clean restrooms, tents, tables and chairs-and a collective desire to commune with both fellow music fans and nature in a unique, otherworldly setting-and you have the makings of a compelling yearly tradition.

Joshua Tree's four top headliners are Rabbit In The Moon, Ozric Tentacles, Uberzone and Gram Rabbit; these ensembles perform on the main stage after an opening set by Girish. The Side Stage features an exciting lineup of compelling newer artists-African Showboyz, Sabrosa Purr, Innaway and West Indian Girl.
Joshua Tree Promoter Tom Bunch launched his career in the early 80s, promoting concerts for punk bands like Dead Kennedys and Black Flag, which led him to work with some of the hottest bands in rock-Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jane's Addiction, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Nirvana. As a manager in the 90s, he took two indie cult band darlings to mainstream success; The Butthole Surfers scored a gold album, The Toadies a platinum.
