Marco Benevento’s Follow The Arrow Festival to Feature The Budos Band, Tortoise, Ghost Funk Orchestra and More
The five-time running, Follow The Arrow Festival will return on Saturday, June 27, to Catskills’ Griffin House in Palenville, N.Y. Hosted by Marco Benevento, the event has unveiled its roster of artists who will participate in the one-day music-centric gathering, with songs flowing from multiple acts from 2 p.m. to 11 p.m., followed by late-night DJ-led dance parties, 11 p.m. to 1 a.m.
Follow The Arrow Festival will feature performances by horn-heavy, funk-frequenting The Budos Band and post-rock instrumentalists Tortoise, in addition to the host’s own delivery, which will lean into psychedelic territory and be powered by improvisation. Also included on the 2026 schedule are psych-soul band Ghost Funk Orchestra, jazz spiritualist Cocgemea, and the high-spirited Benevento Family Band.
Late-night offerings include DJ sets from El Michels Affair and EDAN. According to the official press release, “Follow The Arrow is an artists’ festival at its core — made by musicians, for music lovers. It’s rooted in collaboration, improvisation, and community, with a focus on deep playing, open space, and a crowd that’s there to move.”
