Spin Doctors To Headline Free Taste Of Bedford And Music Festival
"It's been a whole lot happier without her face around," but that doesn't mean we can't take some time to reminisce about better days.
BEDFORD, NY — We can't do anything about inflation, but traveling back to the early 1990s might just be the next best thing.
The Bedford Music Festival and Taste of Bedford will be held at the John Jay Homestead on October 15, from 3:30 p.m. - 9:30 p.m. The event will feature the Spin Doctors and four local bands. Local restaurants, retailers and vendors will also be on hand.
The Grammy-nominated Spin Doctors, best known for hit songs such as "Two Princes" and "Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong," will headline the first Bedford Music Festival at John Jay Homestead. If you turned on your car radio in 1994, it was almost a guarantee that one of these two anthems and earworms of the era would be playing.

The Bedford Music Festival is presented by destination 39.3, which was co-founded earlier this year by Town Supervisor Ellen Calves to revitalize and strengthen the three hamlets of Bedford. Their initial focus is on events that will spotlight the local beauty and vitality of the Town of Bedford.
The John Jay Homestead is located at 400 Jay Street in Katonah.
There will be a limited number of tables near the food tent and around the festival grounds. Be sure to bring a blanket or chair.
