Drink beer, listen to live music and check out The Foundation Spot, RAD's skateboard park co-created by a group of local skaters this Saturday, May 21st.

For the first time ever, we will be streaming the main stage at the 41st LEAF all weekend for you for free at iamavl.com.

We at IamAVL were out at LEAF this past spring, live streaming and archiving the main stage. In partnership with the festival and the bands that performed, we are beginning to release singles form those performances.

The 40th LEAF Festival is this weekend and we are just too excited. To get even more pumped, we decided to ask some friends to share the first thing that comes to mind when asked what it is they love most about LEAF.

Into it's third year, Independent Arts and Music of Asheville a.k.a. iamavl.com released a short video explaining their purpose and mission. With over 450 shows in the archives, IamAVL continues to promote and preserve the vibrant music and arts scene in Asheville NC.

Can't make it to LEAF next weekend? Or maybe just going for a day or two? Well, don't you worry. IamAVL will be brining you all the acts from the main stage LIVE October 17th-19th!!!

Asheville's hottest weekly concert, The Tuesday Night Funk Jam at The Asheville Music Hall, is live on iamavl.com every Tuesday Night around 11pm.

Here's a little blast from the past. IamAVL filmed Roosevelt Collier's Super Jam at the Grey Eagle last year.

Part studio session, part live performance...the Echo Sessions are intended to capture the magic of the live performance from the comfort of the studio setting.
