The excitement is building for RamJam 2011 with the announcement of our stellar line-up. Joining the previously announced performers will be ten more great bands spanning the stylistic spectrum. From ska to high-energy funk, slammin’ blues, rootsy jams and esoteric acoustic sounds, there is music for everyone at RamJam 2011.
Here’s what’s cooking on our two music stages and late night Busker’s Corner stages… Mad-Sweet Pangs / Spokey Speaky / Yellow Dubmarine Smooth Kentucky / BayGrass / Second Self Lost In Company / The Bullbuckers / Boomslang 61 North / New Sweden / Splashing Pearls Still Moon Servants / Quimby Mountain Band
Music fans can celebrate the 4th annual festival with an expanded line-up of great bands, overnight camping and bonfire jam sessions. This year we are upping the ante with new alternative, non-musical performers and fabulous new art installations.
NEW THIS YEAR: Lamb Jam: a kids area with fun activities for the little jammers and more… Alternative Performers: Cirque Oya – mixing Hoop Dancing and Circus arts Riley Blacksmithing: demonstrations The Wedding of Brie Allen and Eric Venette (yes, a real wedding and you’re invited!) Busker’s Corner: with art exhibits, late night music acts and who knows, maybe some creative mingling between bands and alternative performers. And as always a myriad of fun and creative art installations all over the grounds. There will also be some tasty food vendors and fun crafts people too!
Did we mention camping? Yup, after the main stages shut down there will be all-night bonfires and revelry. We have a campsite picked out just for you. Bring your tents and friends (sorry no pets this year) and set up for the night. For you stylin’ types, for an added fee you can reserve a spot for your van or RV in our heavy camping section. Space is limited so sign up early!
To help us celebrate in style and accommodate all the new additions to the RamJam revelry we've moved to a new larger and wonderfully equipped venue. As RamJam has outgrown the Farm, we've listened to what you fans want and found the perfect spot that keeps the natural landscape and chill vibe that makes RamJam so unique while offering expanded amenities and entertainment.
Uncle Bob's Western Corral has hosted music events in the area for years and is only a hop, skip and jump from the original RamJam location.

RamJam originally started as crazy idea on the front porch of a small farm in MD. Slowly it materialized into an organized event. In three years it has blossomed to over 600 people and has raised thousands of dollars for the University of Delaware chapter of Engineers Without Borders. Performers included the Mad Sweet Pangs, Caleb Stine, Fat Daddy Has Been, Dephonic, Spokey Speaky, Porch Chops and Diego Paulo along with many other fantastic groups. With an emphasis on promoting local and regional music and artists RamJam has allowed regional performers to gain significant exposure, while also helping a worthy local charitable cause whose efforts make a difference around the world.
