Hey, Dazees ❤️

At the beginning of this month, we gathered at Tombstone Ranch to attend the 5th year of Better Daze Festival. Some of us traveled from close by and others traveled from hundreds of miles away, all to be with each other and experience so much more than I feel I can put into words. This year was the year I completely felt my vision in its full glory. The amount of love, light and laughter that was shared between all of you was the absolute most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. The kindness and care that was shared between everyone is something I know will stick with everyone who attended forever. What an absolute dream come true. :’)

Thank you so much, Dazees.

Huge thank you to the Artists on the bill and for creating this beautiful community with me. I appreciate you sharing your art with us 🫶🏽

Thank you to the photo and video team, being able to share these moments and being able to look back on our favorite moments is wonderful.

And last but absolutely not least, big huge shout out to Bass in the Blues and SoYouSeeIt. Thank you so much for what you do, and also being damn good at it. I feel so blessed to have met such professional, intelligent and genuine friends.

I love you all. Like a lot. A lot a lot.

Let’s all hangout again soon.

I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone involved with Better Daze Festival. This was such an amazing experience to be a part of. The light crew, sound crew, vendors, artists, and everybody behind the scenes were all so supportive, welcoming, and kind to me throughout the event. You can really feel the community and care that went into creating this festival.

I’m really proud of Savannah for bringing people together like this and creating such a positive and safe environment for everyone. It was super family friendly, full of amazing music, good food, great vendors, art, trading, and just genuinely good people everywhere you looked. You could tell everybody wanted to be there and support one another.

As a photographer, experiences like this mean a lot to me and help me continue growing and learning. Being able to document moments like these reminds me why I love photography and community events so much. I’m really grateful I got to be a part of it, and I already can’t wait to see what next year looks like because it’s only going to get better from here.

If I forgot to tag anyone, please let me know so I can make sure you get credited properly. If you’d like any photos from the festival, feel free to message me and I’ll send over the gallery link when everything is uploaded.

Thank you again for this experience. I hope to see everybody again next year at Better Daze Festival 💛 #betterdazefestival2026 #photography #musicfestival #music #explore by @betterdazefestival

From a dream in 2022 to its 5th year this weekend, Better Daze has become one of the PNW’s most community-driven festivals 🌲🎶

Built from the ground up by @la.savant , Better Daze was created to give artists of all genres a place to be seen, heard, and celebrated. What started as a vision has grown into a full festival experience filled with live music, local vendors, art, food, and the kind of community that keeps people coming back year after year.

This year’s festival returns May 8 & 9 at Tombstone Ranch in Springdale, WA, with a stacked lineup of Washington and PNW artists, family-friendly activities, and a new space surrounded by nature.

More than just a music festival, Better Daze is proof of what can happen when people create the scene they want to see. ✨

Tickets available all weekend or follow @betterdazefestival for updates. by @betterdazefestival

One week away, Dazees! 🌼

Here are a few things to keep in mind while preparing for Better Daze 2026

*The forecast currently says during the day time we’ll have a perfect temperature of mid 70s, and at night mid 40s. Bring sunscreen, handwarmers and extra blankets

*No fire pits allowed, but you can bring a gas stove for camp cooking. We will have a big fire each night for everyone to stay warm.

*Kids 15 and under are FREE entry

*Bring cash, it’s easier for everyone!

*Buy your tickets before the gate and have them ready to scan for the quickest entry.

*There will be a couple food vendors- Gyros and Tacos will be available all weekend.

*Service animals only. Please don’t bring your pets, we love them but this isn’t the ideal place for them.

*Prepare to pack in and pack out your camp trash

*Start hydrating now!

I’m so excited to see all of you and celebrate year 5 of Better Daze Festival! We’re going to have the best time.

See you all very soon ❤️

🎤Artist Spotlight- Y-it🎤

✏️ Y-1T is a 24-year-old Spokane, Washington native who’s been sharpening his pen since the age of 14. What started as a passion for rhymes and intricate patterns has evolved into a polished, hard-hitting style packed with sharp lyricism, dynamic cadence, and undeniable flow.

👤Now, ten years deep in the craft, Y-1T stands as one of Spokane’s most creative and driven lyricists. With relentless energy and a hunger to elevate every stage he touches, he’s back for his third consecutive year at BetterDaze — ready to raise the bar and showcase his skills alongside some of the region’s top-tier talent

🌾Artist Spotlight- Zack Pass🌾

🪾Zack Pass blends dark folk, gritty Americana, and shadow-soaked storytelling into a sound that feels both ancient and urgent. Music raised in the inland Northwest, his songs move with raw acoustic textures, ghostly melodies, and the weight of lived experience. With a voice that cuts through like weathered timber and lyrics rooted in faith, struggle, and redemption, Zack creates music for the wanderers, the wounded, and anyone drawn to the edge of the firelight.

🦋Artist Spotlight- Imposter Sindrum🦋

🫟Imposter Sindrum is a high‑energy drum and bass DJ and multidisciplinary artist whose genre‑bending sets ignite dancefloors and push the boundaries of bass culture. Born in
Idaho and rooted in Spokane, Washington, she channels influences from global bass communities from gritty Belgian jump‑up, face‑melting American dubstep, jungle, and
beyond, fusing them into a sound that’s unmistakably her own.

🌅A rising force in the Pacific Northwest underground, Imposter Sindrum is more than a DJ; she’s a storyteller, a vibe curator, and a cultural connector. Her performances are known for raw intensity, technical precision, and the kind of crowd control that turns a room into a collective
heartbeat.

👥Beyond the booth, she is an Alaska Native creative, wearable art maker, and community driven organizer dedicated to uplifting emerging artists, women, queer creatives, and BIPOC voices. Her work spans events, workshops, and collaborative art spaces that center inclusivity, empowerment, and self‑expression.

🪩Whether you’re a seasoned raver or stepping into the scene for the first time, Imposter Sindrum brings an experience you feel in your chest long after the bass fades. She’s carving her own lane and she’s nowhere near done.

🎣Artist Spotlight- The Walleye 🎣

🎹The Walleye started back in 2013 when a random Craigslist keyboard brought together two Spokane locals: Ben Menard and Auston Ulmer. What began in a basement eventually moved to the woods and orchards of Green Bluff, Washington, where the band built their own off-grid studio by hand. In 2024, Brian Carlton joined the group, fitting right in with the band’s shared roots and outlook.

🌲Recorded over the past winter and mixed and mastered DIY, Nameless leans hard into progressive and psychedelic sensibilities. You’ll hear touches of folk rock, country, psych, underneath a light spreading of jam. They bring all these elements cohesively together to create something special. In their words, “This is us finally letting our hair down, doing what we have been doing live for years. No acoustic guitars allowed.”

💅🏽Artist Spotlight- ClawsnChronic 💅🏽

🗣️”Moving from Colorado Springs to Spokane I was able to break out of the box I built for myself in my home town and start exploring who and what I wanted to do. Starting my career as a nailtech I’ve had the opportunity to put my art on artists who inspired me to take on other artistic mediums and pushed me to be creative with multiple outlets.
