If you were one of the several thousand folks who descended on the Old Mill District for last weekend’s Bend WinterFest, you probably saw some of action below.

Friday night featured a headlining set from Bend favorites, The Gourds, making for a packed stage as the skiers jammed the rail behind the crowd. The Austin alt-country powerhouse proved raucous as ever, despite the fiercely blowing cold winds that whipped up against the stage.

A much warmer, yet doubly crowded Saturday night crowd threw up their horns for Hell’s Belles, who made their second WinterFest appearance with a set of AC/DC covers. Sorry for the blurry video, the aforementioned mass of humanity prevented me from getting closer.

Check in later this week for our mini-documentary from the weekend.
