He is always thrilled to team up with Tamarack for massive concerts like this one and Summerfest.<\/p>\n \u201cFallfest is a celebration of us falling into that the most beautiful time in West Virginia, which is the foliage. We have the best landscape, I believe, in the whole world. I have got to travel all over and here here in Beckley is a celebration of kicking off of our fall season,\u201d said Mullins.<\/p>\n No matter what your taste in music is, they had a little something for everyone. For 2025\u2019s Fallfest, Mullins was able to land a superstar team-up between John Ellison and the Carpenter Ants. McDowell County native John Ellison is responsible for the hit song \u201cSome Kind of Wonderful\u201d that became the most re-recorded song in history.<\/p>\n \u201cTo think that the song is so special and to have John Ellison here is awesome,\u201d said Mullins.<\/p>\n There is plenty on the horizon that music lovers can get excited about.<\/p>\n
