The countdown is on! Join us as we commence the Ithaca Festival with the beloved Festival Parade on Thursday, May 28 at 6 PM and kick off our 2026 Downtown Disco celebration!
After the parade, we will keep the celebration going at the Bernie Milton Pavilion for our Festival Kick-Off Party featuring The Comb Down @thecombdown ! We can’t wait to celebrate with you.
Are you in the parade? If you have access to an electric vehicle, consider using it this year. While not required, choosing electric can help reduce emissions, inspire others, and move us toward a greener, more eco-friendly future.

Get in touch with JP aka @roadmanmusic if you really wanna comb down! Here’s a message from him:
Good morning friends —
I’ve been doing a lot of teaching lately, and something I keep seeing is adults coming back to the piano after years away… and feeling a little stuck once they sit down.
Like they can play some, but it’s not quite flowing the way they want.
That’s been a big focus of mine recently, and it’s been really fun watching people start to loosen up and actually enjoy playing again.
I’ve got a few lesson spots open right now so if that sounds like you—or someone you know—feel free to reach out.
I also put together a free masterclass that walks through some of this if you’re curious. Happy to send it over.
Hope everyone has a great day 🙏

A message below from our very own @lpfunkspix about his FRESHLY RELEASED ALBUM that features The Comb Down on a few tracks💥:
my newly-released concept album “LPfunK . CHOSEN FAMILY” features three songs (tracks 4-6) co-produced by Jon Petronzio and composed for my fellow members of The Comb Down to record, on which they absolutely combed the funk down. take a listen and behold the shredfest that ensued!
