History
The first High Sierra Music Festival was in 1991, and was the genesis of High Sierra Music, of Berkeley, California.[1] The festival is held each year the weekend of July 4.

The organization has also produced festivals and concerts elsewhere in California, and in Maryland, Nevada, Georgia, Massachusetts, and Missouri.
