Rest assured, Asheville will always be the home of Moogfest.
"The way we design and build synthesizers is the way we approach Moogfest- stay focused on the future, while respecting and honoring the past. That's why over the last 9 years artists from Keith Emerson, Brian Eno, and Bernie Worrell to M83, Flying Lotus and Orbital have all graced Moogfest stages. Music is our business, along with user experience and innovation. Moogfest 2013 will bring all of these aspects of Moog to the forefront." - Emmy Parker, Sr. Marketing and Brand Manager, Moog Music Inc.
"The whole experience of playing Moogfest was to be enveloped in enthusiasm for synthesizer music, with a fantastic, well thought out line up, plus a series of seminars and a complete home spun, non-corporate family feel that just doesn't really happen any more. Long may the spirit of Moog in Asheville remain!" - Orbital
"At Moogfest what once seemed primitive is now claiming the future." - New York Times
