More about Sierra Nevada World Music Festival

SNWMF founder Warren Smith envisioned a unique mix of authentic roots-reggae and global music trends, based on conscious music that brings together artists whose lyrics are life-affirming and embrace a positive message. This came to fruition with so many memorable performances over 25 years. With Warren's passing in 2021 and the Covid-19 pandemic, the festival has been on hiatus. This year, Warren's wife Gretchen Franz Smith has brought the team back together to make the festival a reality once more. "The time is right for us to gather again in celebration of Peace, Love & Music. SNWMF 2023 is for Warren," she said.

With this 26th edition of the festival, SNWMF stays true to its roots: Sierra Nevada World Music is dedicated to nurturing a world family peacefully united in celebration of the universal spirit of music.
