On Sunday, Puck Live Doylestown will transform into a buzzing hub of creativity, community, and unforgettable music for the Friends of Nook Festival -- a 12-hour celebration of original music, local art, and artistic expression for the whole family.
The event promises to deliver something for everyone.
Hosted by Nook Nook Creative Village and Stage United, this festival is designed to highlight the range of local musical talent and to support the flourishing arts scene in Central Bucks.
A Full Day of Live Music
The festival will kick off at 11 a.m., showcasing local talent with a series of one-hour concerts throughout the day. The energy will be contagious as the afternoon gives way to evening performances, each adding its own distinct flavor to the mix.
The day’s first performances come from talented bands made up of students from Nook Nook. From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., these future rock stars will take to the stage, offering up everything from folk to funk.
The Full Lineup
As the afternoon continues, the festival's lineup will expand to feature a variety of musical genres from local and national acts.
At 4:15 p.m., the spacey, jazz-funk trio Colacore will take the stage, offering a cosmic journey that promises to "pave their creative path wherever they go."

Archibald’s music has been featured in television shows like "Weeds" and in video games like "NBA2K10."
