Jamtoberfest ’26 Comes to Swim & Sport Club in Flanders, NJ on October 3

The best time of year for an outdoor concert and festival is here — no apples, no pumpkins, no hayrides. Just great music and a good time for everyone. With crisp fall air and early autumn colors setting the backdrop, New Jersey music fans will gather as the historic Swim & Sport Club in Flanders transforms into a jam‑filled festival field. The all‑ages event runs from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and features a full day of live performances, food, and community. Attendees may stay for the entire day or come for their favorite bands — re‑entry is permitted with an event wristband, valid ID, and ticket.

A Brother’s Revival headlines the festival, led by David “Rook” Goldflies (Allman Brothers Band) and Mike Kach (Dickey Betts & Great Southern), joined by local musician Eric Cohen. The lineup also includes Divided Sky, a high‑energy Phish tribute; Touch of Grey, performing classics from the Grateful Dead; and Animal Instincts, a Philadelphia‑based psychedelic rock and funk fusion group.

The festival grounds will feature food trucks, a Beer & Spirits Tent, themed merchandise vendors, and open space for dancing and gathering. The event promises a vibrant, no‑gimmicks outdoor experience built around great music and community.

A Brother’s Revival (Headliner) Led by David “Rook” Goldflies (Allman Brothers Band) and Mike Kach (Dickey Betts & Great Southern), A Brother’s Revival reaches deep into the music of the Allman Brothers Band—the pioneers of the jam‑band sound—and brings their legendary style roaring back. With high‑energy performances of classics like “Ramblin’ Man,” “Jessica,” “Midnight Rider,” “Whipping Post,” and “Blue Sky,” the band delivers extended improvisations, dual‑guitar harmonies, and soulful vocals that honor the original while adding a fresh, contemporary edge.

Divided Sky

A dynamic tribute to Phish, Divided Sky delivers the band’s adventurous spirit with favorites like “You Enjoy Myself,” “Bouncing Around the Room,” “Tweezer,” “Down with Disease,” and “Divided Sky.” Their sets blend faithful renditions with spontaneous improvisation, creating a true Phish‑style experience.

Touch of Grey

Beloved among Deadheads, Touch of Grey brings the music of the Grateful Dead to life with authentic instrumentation and harmonies. Fans can expect classics such as “Touch of Grey,” “Scarlet Begonias,” “Friend of the Devil,” “Sugar Magnolia,” and “Truckin’.” Their shows mix fan favorites with deeper cuts, creating a communal, dance‑friendly atmosphere.

Animal Instincts

Blending psychedelic rock, funk, and fusion, Animal Instincts delivers groove‑driven originals and jam‑inspired performances influenced by artists like The Meters, Frank Zappa, and Gov’t Mule. Their tight rhythms and improvisational flair keep audiences moving from the first note to the last.
