Jared & The Mill
We’re 5 best friends from AZ. We love the desert, we love our city, its people, and we love each other. We love long drives, early mornings, late nights, dive bars, carne asada Tacos at 3 am, and asking each other what we think about things. From living rooms and basement clubs, to theaters and arenas, we just love playing shows, and being on the road. Our shows are rowdy, you’ll break down your walls and realize you’re not in this alone.

High Pine Whiskey Yell
Born out of a desperate need for craft beer, deep powder, plastic jug moonshine, fast-moving rivers, and a deep-seated fear that artificial intelligence will ruin hard-driving bluegrass… High Pine Whiskey Yell came together as a band in late 2018 and released its first EP (The Orchard Sessions) in 2019. This four-piece group of modern-day rounders focuses on telling true stories about robots taking your job, banksters robbing from the poor, the trials of gold panning Idaho, skiing/riding deep powder, UFOs, and a few other traditional bluegrass subjects (such as murder, drinking, and dogs).

Jonathan Warren & The Billy Goats
What is progressive physchobilly folk grass? It’s a goat chewing on a can, it’s a cat scratching at your door, it’s foot stompin’ music that makes you want to eat a biscuit. Melodies you wake up humming in the morning, and stick to your bones like peach cobbler. It’s new-timey, post-retro, pre-apocolyptic, southern Appalachian, gypsy porch swing. It’s the Billy Goats. Enjoy.
Opening Band –

Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band
BMA nominees The Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band are the greatest front-porch blues band in the world. They are led by Reverend Peyton, who most consider to be the premier finger picker playing today. He has earned a reputation as both a singularly compelling performer and a persuasive evangelist for the rootsy, country blues styles that captured his imagination early in life and inspired him and his band to make pilgrimages to Clarksdale, Mississippi to study under such blues masters as T-Model Ford, Robert Belfour and David “Honeyboy” Edwards. Now The Big Damn Band is back with an explosive new record Poor Until Payday. Reverend Peyton's guitar work on the new record is phenomenal and howls the blues. The record is critically acclaimed by Rolling Stone, Relix, Popmatters, Guitar World, American Songwriter, No Depression, Glide, Wide Open Country, Paste, American Blues Scene, Vintage Guitar and many more!
Opening Band –
The Oliphants
The Oliphants are a groove heavy Americana jam band. Borrowing from folk, roots, jazz, rock, funk and world beat. The combination of the songwriting, acoustic rhythm guitar and harmonica of Lee Penn Sky, the classical Jazz training of Stand up bassist Troy Ferguson, the genre blurring electric mandolin playing guitar hero Dan Costello, and the heavy hitting cyclonic beats of drummer and music educator David Gluck will make you shake your backside. It's Trunkadelic!
