Currently based in NYC, the Farrow has a refreshing take on music paired with a creative style that expresses life and fame through an energetic musical lens. In a time where content seems impersonal and lacking in creativity, The Farrow’s candid perspective cracks the lid on an untapped genre itching to be heard.

Coming into its third year, Mysteryland USA has done just that, delivering a stellar lineup featuring Bassnectar, Skrillex, ODESZA, and more, alongside an impressive slate of art and cultural offerings. This year, Mysteryland USA will feature a Healing Garden for yoga, meditation, and more, a 50′ Incendia Fire Dome, a late night comedy tent, post-festival movies, and a strong food lineup of New York’s finest, amongst others, to make sure festival-goers are constantly engaged in trying something new and doing something fun.
