"This hurts..... It hurts a lot ...

I  am sorry to announce that the 2012 Sweet and Hot Music Festival scheduled to be held over the Labor Day Weekend- August 31, September 1-2-3 has been cancelled.

It has been a wonderful ride-  sixteen years-- great music-- great fans-- the best of times.

Thanks to all the gifted, incredible artists who made the music happen for all those years.

Thanks to the loyal, dedicated fans who kept the flames burning.

Thanks to all the volunteers whose contribution was so welcome and so necessary.

I know that the talent and dedication will keep the music happening around the world for a long time to come.

It doesn't matter if it's Sweet or Hot - keep the Music swinging with all you've got.

Executive Festival Director
