When we started working on Freakin’ Weekend V last October, I’m not sure we knew what a roller coaster it would be. We encountered some setbacks, but we also had quite a few things work in our favor. Now with the weekend behind us and the memories concretely formed, I can honestly say that it exceeded all of my expectations. Racking my brain for highlights proves fruitless. The weekend as a whole shines alone as one of the highlights of the last year.

Thank you Jesse. Thank you Donoho. Thank you Cy. Thank you Cam. Thank you Julia. Thank you Josh. Thank you Alexa. Thank you Trent. Thank you Kevin. Thank you Sean. Thank you Emily. Thank you Amelia. Thank you Elise. Thank you Daniel. Thank you Bingham and Drew. Thank you Christina.

But most of all, THANK YOU BANDS AND FREAKS. Nashville is a beautiful city full of beautiful people, and that warm beauty was in full bloom those three days.

As always, photos taken by three of the baddest babes in town: Julia Bee, Emily Quirk, and Amelia Anderson.
