Metallica will be headlining twice at Orion Music and More this coming June!



This year’s festival was ‘beastly’ awesome, and we just wanted to express some gratitude for those who helped us pull it off.
Thanks to everyone for our third successful year of the Orion Independent Music Festival! A special thanks to Hotel Park City, Four Seasons Transportation, Park City Clothing Company, and all of our sponsors and artists!
A special thanks to Guy Morris and the incredible staff at Hotel Park City! The Orion artists were treated like rock stars.
Also a special thanks to Kenny Lovette and the Spur Bar and Grill!
Thank you All-Access Pass holders and festival attendees! Thank you to all who have made this festival possible! We’ll see you next year…

There were so many great artists at this year’s festival. Each one brought something unique to the table for our listening pleasure. How do you choose just one Artist of the Year from all the fantastic talent we’ve had this year? The decision was difficult, but Holy Water Buffalo will be 2012 Artist of the Year.

Congratulations to Thomas MacCallum, the new owner of Capo guitar pedal from http://morpheusefx.com/. All who had pre-purchased their All-Access Passes online were entered to win and Thomas was our lucky winner. If you have an All-Access-Pass from this year’s festival, don’t throw it away yet. We have some more things to give away. We will be posting on our facebook page for the next few days, and if we post the number on your All-Access Credential, you have won.
Hey Music Lovers! Want a chance to win an awesome guitar pedal from http://morpheusefx.com/? We’ll be raffling off one on the final day of the festival.
