The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

A Town Called Home Led by multi-instrumentalists Howdy and Marilyn Darrell, A Town Called Home showcases close, heartfelt harmonies and original tunes steeped in a wide range of traditional musical influences, yielding a cut of Americana all their own. Merging deep Texas roots with a West Coast vibe, their songs run from pensive and introspective to defiant and hard-driving. Originally from Austin, they are currently calling Portland, Oregon home.

The Prairie Benders Experience The Prairie Benders' original and distinctly dark Americana/Folk Rock sound. In a style that conjures Neil Young to John Prine to Wilco, The Prairie Benders deliver compelling lyrics steeped in psychedelic escapism, catchy melodies and sharp songwriting. The Prairie Benders' unique musical signature showcases the fiddle as the main lead solo instrument, setting them apart from most bands' standard electric guitar-centric approach. Featuring vocal harmonies, fiddle, acoustic guitar and a tight rhythm section, The Prairie Benders' music feels genuinely cathartic and is as healing as it is infectious. Based in Portland, Oregon.

SUNTEX Suntex is a modern western quartet inspired by desert cinematic landscapes, lonesome cowboys, dark western ballads and classic sounds embodying these themes.
