Favorite part of festival: Logan and Gaby enjoy playing at the festival for its atmosphere - the audience is very welcoming. They also get to meet new musicians with similar backgrounds, and often make new friends. Logan got the “stage bug” at the CDBF in 2016 when he was 9 years old. Their love for music is what they have in common, so they are always looking forward to come back to the place where it all started.
