Wildwood Barefoot Fest Adds Jon Pardi and Chris Lane

This could be just the event to break us out of our pandemic cocoons.

The Barefoot Country Music Festival is planned for the Wildwood Beach August 19-22.

Concert organizers say they spoke with New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy earlier this year and he agreed that moving the outdoors music festival to August from its original June dates was a move that, hopefully, enable it to come to fruition.

We're keeping our fingers crossed that this is going to happen!
