Five festivals across the globe, plus the record label. D.I.Y. til we die.
Muddy Roots has been the home of underground roots and punk since 2010. It started as a D.I.Y. answer to the polished festival circuit and grew into a worldwide family of five festivals and a record label.
The sound never picked a lane. Punk, doom, outlaw country, rockabilly, blues, and back-porch folk all share the same stages. It is loud, it is honest, and it is built by the same community that shows up for it.
In Tennessee that means free camping and free showers across 127 acres at the Junebug Boogie Ranch, two waterfalls down the road, and a crowd that looks out for each other. It is a home for all the folks in-between scenes. D.I.Y. til we die.

Founded by Jason Galaz alongside the Muddy Roots Festival, Muddy Roots Records is a label dedicated to vinyl editions of the music that defines the sound of the festival itself. The pure, uncut, real deal music. The forgotten classics, the kicked-aside artists, the workers, the builders, the poets and myth makers. D.I.Y. til we die.
Shirts, vinyl, patches, and gear from the worldwide D.I.Y. machine.
Recurring support is what keeps five festivals and a label running independent.
Tiered patrons unlock the Keys To The Kingdom. A private performance inside the festival that no general ticket can get you into, plus presale ticket access, behind-the-gate stories, and a direct line to the crew.
