Hey friends, when our teams discovered an overlap between our June 20 show with Jesse Ruben at FocusMusic Sterling and the ever-popular and beloved Mountville Folk Festival, we decided to join forces in the best way possible: We are proud to announce that Jesse Ruben will be part of their amazing main stage lineup as the FocusMusic sponsored performer at the Mountville Folk Festival at Bull Run Mountain in Aldie, VA at 6 pm on June 20! 

We encourage everyone to go and enjoy a day (or weekend) at Mountville (you won't regret it, we promise) and support Jesse and the Festival! Admission is by donation. Existing ticket holders for the Sterling June show will be reimbursed.

The Mountville Folk Festival is like a giant house concert on beautiful private property. You'll get to see Jesse, other incredible musicians, make new friends, and discover one of the best folk festivals out there. We promise you'll want to come back every year! You can get your invitation for this year and the future by subscribing at mountvillefolk.org. 

We look forward to seeing you in Aldie!
