Drifter Fest: The Inaugural Bert Griggs Memorial Jam

Drifter Fest: The Inaugural Bert Griggs Memorial Jam

We invite you to Charleston on March 6-8th to celebrate Drifter Merch Co-Founder Bert Griggs' life.

In addition to Bert’s passion for designing and creating music-inspired and custom goods for his Drifter Merch customers, Bert was an amazing father, husband, son, brother, and friend. Bert had an innate ability to make everyone he met feel like they were the most important person in the room. He never met a stranger. In fact, he was everyone’s best friend. He had the sweetest soul and a tender heart that loved hard and deeply. Bert had a unique sense of humor with an infectious laugh and smile that could light up the darkest room. He is intensely missed.

We hope you can join us for a weekend of fun events complete with great company, stories and lots of live music.
