 Summit is an intentional double-entendre – at once a musical gathering 
 and an image of a strong and whole peak,” says producer Michael Nash.  
 “One exists to help sustain the other.”\n\nSanctioned and supported by 
 Mount Tamalpais State Park, Sound Summit’s goal is to raise funding for 
 and awareness of the mountain’s needs. “Most of the work it takes to 
 keep the mountain safe and seemingly untouched by the modern world tends to 
 escape our general focus, but it is a concerted and ongoing effort, 
 deserving of our attention and support,” adds Nash. \n\nSound Summit 
 retains Tam Jam’s warmly embraced spirit, structure, and intention to 
 create an annual celebration of the mountain and evolve a sustainable 
 revenue source. “We feel Sound Summit is a well-wrought, creative and 
 dynamic gesture of support for a very special place in the neighborhood,” 
 says Nash. “It is as much a community spirit as it is a community 
 event."\n\nSound Summit tickets go on sale Sunday, July 19 at 10:00am and

 Branches Conservancy\nFounded in 2014, Roots & Branches Conservancy is 
 dedicated to the conservation of natural resources, both physical and 
 cultural. Those resources can range from old growth forests to indigenous 
 musical forms and oral traditions. Towards that end, its goal is to create 
 intersections between the environment and the arts beneficial to their 
 mutual preservation and evolution. \n\nIts flagship event, Sound Summit, 
 offers a unique forum in which artistic resources are brought to bear at 
 the very environmental resource they serve to support. With breathtaking 
 vistas of the local watershed, the endless Pacific, and San Francisco Bay, 
 Mount Tam is the natural gem of the local landscape and the heart of Marin. 
 Beloved by generations, Mount Tamalpais State Park is a 25,000-acre state 
 park in Marin County with more than 60 miles of hiking and biking trails 
 that in turn connect to more than 200 miles of trails in neighboring 
 parklands.  \n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2015/07/19/18775112.php
