One of St. Louis\u2019 most highly anticipated music events, Pines Fest<\/a>, returns for its fourth year in a new location: Atomic by Jamo<\/a> in the Grove. The single-day festival will take place on Saturday, Oct. 18, beginning at 2 p.m. Hosted by St. Louis\u2019 own The Mighty Pines, this fan-favorite event brings together top local, regional and national acts for a stellar day of roots and rock music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Known for blending wildcat guitar with jazzgrass, three-part harmonies with zydeco-folk, and an irresistible mix of country, blues and jam influences, The Mighty Pines have built a national following through their dynamic live shows and collaborations with artists like Michael McDonald and Yonder Mountain String Band\u2019s Allie Kral. Pines Fest is their signature celebration of that sound \u2013 a gathering of musical friends and fans that has grown each year since its inception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year marks a major step forward for the festival, which has nearly doubled its lineup since the early days. \u201cWhen we started, we had maybe seven bands or so,\u201d said frontman Neil Salsich. \u201cThis year there are 11 \u2013 more bands than ever before, and a higher number of national acts than ever before. We\u2019ve always wanted this to be a sustainable festival, growing slowly but surely in solid increments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new location adds to the excitement. After three years at the Big Top in Grand Center Arts District, Pines Fest moves to Atomic by Jamo in the Grove, where Talmage Avenue will be shut down for a full-on block party vibe. \u201cIt\u2019s even more exciting because we\u2019ll have this street-festival kind of thing going,\u201d Salsich said. \u201cWe want this to be a foundation for our brand \u2013 literally a musical and cultural tradition in St. Louis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2025 lineup includes The Mighty Pines, The High Hawks (featuring Vince Herman of Leftover Salmon, Tim Carbone of Railroad Earth, Adam Greuel of Horseshoes & Hand Grenades and more), along with Armchair Boogie, Pert Near Sandstone, local Grateful Dead stalwarts Jake\u2019s Leg, The Spooklights, Falling Fences, Hunter Peebles & The Moonlighters, Starwolf, Root Mod, and Taylor Steele & The Love Preachers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHaving artists like The High Hawks and Jake\u2019s Leg is really special for us,\u201d Salsich said. \u201cJake\u2019s Leg are legends; they were the first band I ever saw live as a 21-year-old at the Broadway Oyster Bar. [The Mighty Pines bassist and vocalist] John [Hussung] and I saw them and our lives were changed forever.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the music, festivalgoers can enjoy food from Farm Spirit and Crush Cocktails & Food, with a dessert vendor currently in the works. There will also be an assortment of handmade goods from local makers and even live painting throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked what gave the band the confidence to throw a festival of this magnitude, Salsich said, \u201cYou get the confidence after you throw something like this. We\u2019re still small fries, but we\u2019re confident in what we do. A festival like this only comes to fruition over many years. The first five are when you\u2019re working in the dark, but that\u2019s how you build the foundation that allows you to explode.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atomic by Jamo\u2019s full bar will stay open until 3 a.m., with live music running until midnight. Tickets for Pines Fest 2025 are available now via TicketWeb<\/a>. General admission tickets are $30 in advance and $35 on the day of the show. Reserved VIP seating is also available for $100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mighty Pines are currently back in the studio working on a new album while touring nationwide in 2025, bringing their rousing anthems, intuitive musical chemistry, and warm stage presence to audiences across the country.
