A Conversation with Much Obliged Podcast cohost Benji Rosenzweig about Healing Appalachia Festival

Dropped Among This Crowd

This week on the show, host Sara J is joined by Much Obliged podcast cohost Benji Rosenzweig, who talks about all things Healing Appalachia Festival.

Benji gets into the history of the festival and the organizations that were present over the weekend, Much Obliged's involvement, and the artists and bands that stood out to him. Benji shares multiple times over the weekend that the music coincided with moments in his life, including the recent passing of his father, a "cosmic hug" and the single most important moment that came out of the whole festival. Benji shares his highlights from the Umphrey's McGee set that featured two sit in drummers, Jack Ryan (Marcus King Band) & Rodney Elkins (Tyler Childers) and more!
