The Cheats Movement presents: What I learned at Jellowfest 2014

by | Aug 28, 2014 | POLITICS

Friday night I spent another night at The Broadberry. The Broadberry is quickly becoming my favorite music venue in RVA. This time I was there for JellowFest 2014. JellowFest was the inaugural showcase for Jellowstone Records, the new RVA based record label created by Reggie Pace and Devonne Harris.

Friday night I spent another night at The Broadberry. The Broadberry is quickly becoming my favorite music venue in RVA. This time I was there for JellowFest 2014. JellowFest was the inaugural showcase for Jellowstone Records, the new RVA based record label created by Reggie Pace and Devonne Harris. I thought I knew what to expect walking into JellowFest but I learned a few things Friday night that I’d like to share with the Cheats Movement family via the always authentic Cheats Movement photos and commentary.

1. Jellowstone Records is a family

You hear this a lot about record labels, “We’re not just a label, we’re a family.” Well, with Jellowstone, I believe it. It’s not only that they seem to genuinely love, respect, and care for each other. You can tell just by hanging around Jellowstone artists that they enjoy working with each other, creating together, and are happy when others in their family succeeds.

This is just a bit of what Marc Cheatham of The Cheats Movement saw and heard at The Broadberry last Friday night. Head over to The Cheats Movement to read the whole thing: http://thecheatsmovement.com/2014/08/24/what-i-learned-at-jellowfest-2014-in-photos/
