Music festival for a cause.
Particle Accelerator is a music gathering to support suicide prevention and mental health services in northeast Connecticut . It is in memory of Jack Young Jr. and others on the Wall of Angels. Grace takes great time and care adding the victims to this somber wall each year, as well as explaining its relevance to those that listen. But this is a town celebration for all ages, of those that help, and those that have sought help. A gathering to celebrate the life worth living. And there's music. From Shane Hall 's hip hop to the percussive folk rock of ilyAIMY , and the complex guitar work of Adam Trudel the music is nonstop. Sadly these were the only three acts I had time to catch. One can see the complete nine hour list of performers here . Eric finds local talent willing to donate their time to the cause and spends the day running back and forth between the two stages. Most fun
