With decades of experience promoting concerts around Indianapolis, the four founders of a new Labor Day music festival are all in.
, debuting Labor Day weekend, is the brainchild of Sybesma and three collaborators: Paul Peck, with whom he founded the Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival in Okeechobee, Florida in 2016; Dave Lucas, who founded Deer Creek Music Center and remodeled the Murat Centre through his Sunshine Promotions alongside Sybesma; and South Bend band Umphrey's McGee's co-manager Kevin Browning.
In 2018, they attempted to build a new festival in Florida, Miami Beach Pop, but it was first delayed until 2019 then postponed and ultimately cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic."Ultimately it was a combination of factors that made it untenable," he said.Although Indianapolis has a proven track record of pulling off massive events and is a prime location within a day's drive of much of the country's population, festivals have struggled to gain traction.
In addition to those early '80s events, Sybesma organized shows at the fairgrounds and convention center throughout the mid-'70s — Blue Oyster Cult, REO Speedwagon, Joe Walsh. He also helped put together the Rolling Stones' legendary 1975 concert at Indiana University.Sybesma more recently spent 11 years promoting in China, bringing in Elton John, James Brown and the country's first electronic music festival, he said.
On the performance side, AllIN's inaugural musical lineup is a mix of classic and modern rock: Death Cab for Cutie, John Fogerty, Daryl Hall & John Oates, Cage the Elephant and Portugal. The Man. It also features a handful of local bands on each day, as well as some genre diversity in the mid-card, from R&B legends the Four Tops to Americana singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams."Radio is such a big part of the culture — driving your car and listening to music," Peck said.
