MILWAUKEE - Interstate Music's Drummerfest is back on but with a new name: Interstate Music Fest
Interstate Music has announced that a reimagined Drummerfest will return as Interstate Music Fest on Wednesday, October 6th through Saturday, October 9th. The multi-day free event will be live-streamed to a national audience. New changes this year include the celebration drum enthusiasts and guitarists, pianists, concert-goers, horn players, DJs, rockers, melomaniacs, and more.
