LAGOONFEST 2026

A Tribute to Local Musicians
Saturday, April 11th, 2026

Not 2 Long but not sappy.

We don’t have enough pictures or the words to explain what happened here yesterday. It seems we have done something in our industry we haven’t ever been able to do until now and the response was INCREDIBLE!

LAGOONFEST 2026~“A Tribute To Local Musicians”~Saturday Apr 11 @ Icehouse Tap Room GS was a massive success.

30 local musicians gathered on the same day on 2 stages some in the morning, afternoon, some went to a gig and came back for another 1-3 hour jam last night!

The crowd was CRAZY AMAZING!

The music was SPOT ON!

 

I have never seen so much talent jumping up on a stage to play with someone they have only seen online. The collaborations were so good there are probably a few NEW duos to hit the streets soon.

#TimRoberts……..If you don’t know by now, business aside, Tim has become a very close friend of ours. Our friend dedicated his entire Saturday to #LF2026, the musicians and ITR! Tim and his band set up the back line for all the musicians to use at the #lagoonbar. Tim also ran sound for EVERY local musician who played from 12:00 noon to 1:00am on both stages, while playing with random musicians on both stages all day!

A massive appreciation for you and you, Mark, Tommy & Amos for the gear!

2 Every Musician who was a part of #LF2026……THANK YOU X 1000!!!!! All of you F@(&ing ROCK!

Phil J & Clay Watson together!!!!

Tim Nowell & JB Dyess

Jesse Branham & Josh Drake

Matt Erdman &Dustin Brown

Just 2 name a few of the BAD ASS sets we witnessed all day and night!

 

To our ITR Working Family! We Love each of you!

This may upset some dear friends of ours throughout the years, BUT…..

YOU ARE BY FAR THE MOST IMPRESSIVE CREW I HAVE EVER WORKED WITH & we look forward to an amazing season!

Emma & Mo absolutely & obviously crushed the Line Up for #LF2026. Everyone told me all day how awesome the schedule was!

To all of the ITR Ambassadors for their love of icehouse. They dedicated all morning and evening to the donations at the door!!! Their time is valuable and we appreciate all and everything you all do!

#EllenKimJodie

 

In conclusion, it seems we may have to look to organize this a little more, to hopefully grow #LF2026 to a #LF2027 with the he help of everyone yesterday as well as a few more local musicians next year!

The OFFICIAL NUMBERS OF THE $$$$ RAISED 4 LOCAL MUSICIANS WILL BE ANNOUNCED EARLY THIS WEEK!
