From HyperionFestival.com
“In September the Midwestern music festival circuit gains a new gem. On the comfortable, picturesque 55-acre Stable Studios farm in Spencer, IN, Herm Productions presents the Hyperion Music & Arts Festival. This festival site has a great history, having held the Wuhnurth Festival and Stable Studios Festival the past two summers. But this year, these grounds will be taken to a new level by the visual artistic brilliance of the Herm Productions crew.
Hyperion is one of the twelve Greek Titan Gods: the Lord of Light. So expect the heavy hitting lineup of 35+ jam and electronic artists to be boldly illuminated with mind-bending amounts of lighting design and visual art from over 30 artists. Festival season is coming to a close in high style this year: Hyperion Music & Arts Festival has arrived.”
