A jammed summer for New Monsoon continues this weekend with the third annual GuitarFish Festival at the Cisco Grove Campground in Soda Springs, on Highway 50 halfway between South Lake Tahoe and Sacramento.

The festival opens at 12:30 p.m. Friday with Drop Theory and concludes Sunday at midnight with Peter Joesph Burtt and the Tide Kings.

New Monsoon plays the midway point, 6:30 p.m. Saturday. The band is in the process of recording its first studio album since”New Monsoon IV in 2007. It recently put down the rhythm tracks at TRI studios. Guitarists Jeff Miller and Bo Carper and keyboardist Phil Ferlino will add their tracks to the mix at a future date, presumably back at Bob Weir’s busy Marin County studio.

“We’re looking at 10 songs now for the record,” guitarist Jeff Miller said. “We have some songs we’ve played and  a couple of new ones we have not played live so it’s going to be a healthy mix of the two.”

New Monsoon will be play Homewood Days Saturday Aug. 17, and are planning a second annual GaryFest Halloween weekend.
