[ 源起 Origin ]
春天吶喊音樂藝術祭創辦於1995 年。
是由這兩位已經定居在台灣並成家立業的美國人所主辦的，最初他們的想法只 是想要在像墾丁這樣風光明媚的山景海邊，找幾十個朋友，彈唱音樂、休閒一 下，辦個音樂同樂會。當時雖然已經開始有唱自己創作的歌曲，但演出的樂團 也大多還是表演翻唱歌曲。如果我們把時光拉回到 1995 年，也就是民國 94 年。 當年的金曲獎是第六屆，最佳男女演唱人分別是殷正 洋和張清芳，最佳台語男歌手的名字叫作吳宗憲。當時台灣的社會對「創作樂團」二個字還很陌生，對現在風行的「音樂祭」更是毫無所悉。
Spring Scream started small in 1995 by Wade and Jimi... “It’s just gotten bigger and better.” This year of the Rabbit 2011 should see over 200 performers on 7 stages. Emphasis is on music, but we strive to make it a place where art meets life and artists live together in nature for a couple days.If we could go back in time to 1995, Kenting was still a simple and innocent place. It was the 6th year of the Golden Melody Awards, the best male singer was Jonny Yin, best female singer was Stella. The best Taiwanese singer was Jacky Wu.Back then, Taiwanese society thought the words "independent band" sounded strange, and had no idea what a "music festival" was.
到了 1999 年，報名表演的樂團增加到 100 團，當時附近的飯 店眼 見商機無限，也以同樣名稱外包自辦類似的音樂祭，可說是春天吶喊音樂祭開始被混淆的濫觴。對二位主辦人 Jimi 和 Wade 而言，他們在墾丁地區耕耘十幾年, 「春天吶喊」已經不只是一個音樂活動，而是一個一年一度的鉅型有聲藝術作品。
By 1999, the number of bands applying to play at Spring Scream had increased to over 100 bands. Nearby restaurants had unlimited business, and other separate festivals using the same name started popping up. You could say, people started to get mixed up about which was the original Spring Scream Music festival.
