Sing Me High Music Festival is an annual celebration of music and faith in the Shenandoah Valley. Festival hosts the Walking Roots Band anchor the line-up for this annual benefit for the Brethren & Mennonite Heritage Center, where over a thousand community members gather to listen, sing, laugh, eat, and play — all while celebrating family, friends, and faith, whatever their traditions.
The 2019 festival featured the inaugural Sing Me High Music Festival Songwriter Contest, which Pittsburgh, PA-based singer-songwriter Sam Stucky won with his song "Everything That Falls."
With a voice like James Taylor and songwriting prowess to match, Sam Stucky is sure to enchant and delight audiences of all ages. Sam will be backed by his band from Pittsburgh, who are in town to record at Blue Sprocket Sound as part of their prize winnings.
Admission: $12 adults; $10 seniors 65 and over; $6 students 13 and up; children 12 and under free. Doors open at 7:00 and music starts at 7:30. Enter from the parking lot at the entrance with the handicap accessible ramp.
A portion of proceeds will go to the Brethren & Mennonite Heritage Center via the Sing Me High Music Festival.
