7:00 pm - 8:30 pm: Victor Wooten & The Wooten Brothers

For over four decades, The Wooten Brothers—Victor on bass and vocals, Joseph on keyboards and vocals, Roy on percussion and vocals and Regi on guitar and vocals—have been redefining jazz, funk, soul, R&B, rock, and bluegrass. Growing up as military kids, they shared stages with artists like Curtis Mayfield, The Temptations, and Ramsey Lewis. In the mid-80s, they released an album as The Wootens with Clive Davis’ Arista Records.

Their shows are a high-energy, super funky, artistic blend of styles, including original songs and classics. In short, these brothers are the real deal, and their shows are not to be missed.

7:00 pm - 9:15 pm: Väsen + Hawktail / Darol Anger & Bruce Molsky

Väsen + Hawktail is the culmination of decades of influence and musical relation. Brittany Haas, Jordan Tice and Paul Kowert met while in college on the East Coast, jamming on Väsen tunes and attending their concerts. These experiences proved highly formative to their musical identities. There’s a strong tie between their respective fiddle traditions and each band’s approach to tune-writing that makes this collaboration a natural fit. The opportunity to perform together is something that both bands have been looking forward to for years. “The members of Hawktail are brilliant musicians I met when they were teenagers coming to Väsen-gigs on our US tours.” says Väsen Nyckelharpa player, Olov Johansson. “It’s been amazing to follow their path and now we get to create new Hawktail-Väsen music together!”

Marcus King faces heartache, addiction, and mental health head-on in his music.

Logging thousands of miles on the road as “The Marcus King Band,” he established himself with unparalleled performance prowess. During 2020, he linked up with Dan Auerbach and cut his solo debut El Dorado, garnering a Grammy Award nomination for “Best Americana Album.” Between headlining venues, he performed alongside Chris Stapleton, Greta Van Fleet, and Nathanial Rateliff. He has launched various mental health initiatives, including a guitar auction collaboration with MusiCares. With his latest album Mood Swings, produced by Rick Rubin, his vocals are front-and-center more than ever before, alongside his always impressive guitar playing.
