Greensky Bluegrass & Aqueous Welcome Guests At Summer Camp Music Festival

The 16th annual Summer Camp Music Festival presents the first of three full days of action today at Three Sisters Park in Chillicothe, Illinois. Yesterday, the festival hosted a Thursday Pre-Party that featured a more abbreviated schedule consisting of dozens of sets and it didn’t take long for collaborations to happen.

Buffalo jam act Aqueous played their first of two sets at this year’s festival on Thursday. The band was joined by moe. drummer Vinnie Amico for a cover of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” as part of their set. Watch footage of “Warpigs” captured by NYS Music followed by the setlist via the band’s website:

Michigan’s Greensky Bluegrass closed out the action on the Starshine Stage with a set chock full of staples. The band was joined by old friend Joel Cummins of Umphrey’s McGee on keyboards for “All Four” and worked teases of David Bowie’s “Fame” within “Living Over.” Here’s exceptional footage of Greensky’s “Steam Powered Aeroplane” and “Windshield” from last night captured by Live For Live Music followed by the setlist via Camp Greensky:
