The Highlonesome Music Festival: A Missouri Ozarks Escape
The Highlonesome Music Festival takes place near Ava, Missouri
Musical Forest Enchants Festival-Goers
One of the festival's highlights is the Musical Forest, a whimsical grove where musicians gather to share their talents amidst the natural beauty of the Ozarks. Heather Langley, co-founding member of The Deadgummits and Highlonesome veteran, describes the experience as "everywhere you turn something beautiful is happening."
2025 Festival Lineup
This year's lineup promises to entertain, with a diverse mix of folk, Americana, bluegrass, and roots music. Other scheduled events include a foraging hike with naturalist Bo Brown, a mushroom identification hike with members of the Missouri Mycological Society, music jam sessions, and more.
Unique Setting, Unforgettable Experience
Dockley Ranch, a private ranch with a miniature state park feel, nestled in the heart of the Ozarks, provides the perfect backdrop for this intimate and magical festival. The ranch's owners, Claire Lea and Myke Gemkow, have created a haven for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of modern life and reconnect with nature.
A Tribute to a Visionary
The festival is a tribute to Claire's father, Dr. Randy Lea, an eclectic man who dreamed of hosting artists and nature lovers on the property. The stage, built in his honor, has become a central gathering place for weddings, concerts, and farm-to-table dinners.
Highlonesome's Growing Popularity
The Highlonesome Music Festival has grown in popularity over the years, attracting visitors from across the Midwest. Attendees like Olivia Kics from Illinois describe the Highlonesome Festival venue as "brimming with peace," a sanctuary where they can escape the city and find peace and renewal.
An Invitation to Reconnect with Nature
The Highlonesome Music Festival offers a unique opportunity to disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature. Gemkow notes that many visitors find inspiration and solace in a place where they may lose connection to their phone provider. Attendee Samantha Rangel-Bransum of Tulsa, Oklahoma describes the festival as "adult summer camp."
