FMMF 2015 – Ledges Band

Fashion Meets Music Festival – Columbus, Ohio

This Labor Day weekend marked the second annual year for the Fashion Meets Music Festival (FMMF) in Columbus, Ohio. FMMF was a 2-day festival of musical artists and fashion designers held near Nationwide Arena. I was fortunate to be able to cover the event to share it with all of you 🙂

There were so many great fashion events and musical events that it would have been nearly impossible to have seen them all, but I wanted to highlight some of my favorites here on the blog in a series of short posts.

I started my Saturday in the Fashion Tent – the first band that played was Ledges from Akron, Ohio. They had a great sound and I actually thought that the main singer sounded just like U2.

In their own words – “Allowing themselves to draw inspiration from both the instrumental realm and the hard hitting sounds of the Alternative/Indie scene, Ledges offers an intriguing blend of ambient textures driven by immersive melodies presented with starkly honest lyrics. Their music is a listening experience for those who enjoy bands such as Explosions in the Sky, Foals, and Manchester Orchestra.”

Hear them here or find them on Facebook and Twitter.

Stay tuned for more posts from FMMF!
