LENNY MOLINARI, Founder and head of YASGUR’S FARM, Lead Guitarist and vocalist, plays with the sweetness of Carlos Santana, the soul of Jimi Hendrix and the blues of Stevie Ray Vaughn, which combined with his own abilities makes him one of the finest guitarist/bandleaders known today.
Percussionist and Vocalist CARL LINDH can sing like Robert Plant while playing like John Bonham. An outstanding performer, Carl provides the rhythmic foundation for the entire band to build upon, with a bombastic style that is unquestionably his own. A powerful package!
Influences
WOODSTOCK ERA MUSIC, Classic Rock, and Modern Rock too!

A Message from Lenny Molinari
Greetings to all Yasgur’s Farm Loyal Fans and Friends.
I’ve never directly addressed you via the internet; however, in lieu of recent events, I feel a “state of the band” is needed.
Let me start by thanking all our faithful following for all your support, and know that our dedication and commitment to excellence is stronger and brighter than ever.
Over the past 10 years, we have gone through many changes in our line-up. These changes caused many problems, mostly affecting our ability to go forward with our original project and of course getting Yasgur's Farm back to 100 percent.
I’m not going to get into why these changes happened I’ll just say it was a period of unfortunate circumstances. Still, Carl and I never lost faith and we both worked even harder to overcome this adversity. Let me get to the reason I’m bringing this up. We are changing yet again. But it is with utmost confidence I say to you, the dark period is over. We have finally found the combination of musicians that we have been looking for. I know this may sound familiar to you, but indeed, this is it.
A very rare blend of chemistry, skill level in both musicianship and vocals, and commitment, has finally returned to the Yasgur’s Farm cause. This lineup will make the past ten years worth the wait. The magic I see in this lineup will be evident to you from our first date. Putting it together is one of the reasons we are not gigging much right now. We are assembling a very special band.
Changing members in a band like Yasgur’s Farm is always difficult. The music we play is difficult music to learn, and we have extensive arrangements. But rehearsing this band has been a pleasure.
This lineup has proven to me that learning this material again, can be fun, just like the first time we learned it. All the songs feel fresh and new, finally they sound like I knew they should. We are loving every minute of putting it together. Our opening day is a double... and I think this will be memorable to all Yasgur’s lovers.
Information regarding our new members will be coming soon.
Finally, you people keep the wind in our sails. Your attendance during our darkest time has not gone unnoticed or unappreciated. Let us applaud you. We are looking forward to seeing you and rocking your summer.
Please join Yasgur's Farm as we welcome our newest members...
