  Borderland Band Camp 2026

  Sep 26, 20261h 6mS10

  Borderland Band Camp is a 4-day summer music program (August 24-27, 2026) for middle-school and high-school teens with a BIG goal—to share the stage with professional musicians for two live performances, culminating in a spot on the Homespun Stage at Borderland Music + Arts Festival. There's nothing more tantalizing to a musician than a chance at a big stage—and the Homespun Stage at Borderland Music + Arts Festival is pretty dang big. This is a serious opportunity for young musicians to spread their wings. Last year's Camp was a big success, and was capped off by a well-received set at the Borderland Festival before a large crowd. Our 'campers' really knocked it out of the park with their individual and collective performances. This year, response to the Camp has been more than enthusiastic, with nearly double the number of students our team of professional musician mentors will be able to serve. Also, badly needed scholarship funds to deserving students were awarded through the Sportsmen's Americana Music Foundation. Joining me this week as co-host, from the Why Music Matters podcast, is Band Camp mentor and my brother in music, Jeff Miers and by Band Camp student and fellow mentor this year, Xeni. Originally recorded on Saturday, August 29, 2026.
