Jam Pak Blues ‘N Grass
Youth Blues and Bluegrass Performing Saturday and Sunday 10 AM - 11 AM With twenty-eight years performing and teaching in the bluegrass world of Arizona, many folks know the story of Jam Pak. Somehow, some way, enfolded in the love of music, community, food, travel, and love itself, this unique band of all ages, races, and walks of life makes bluegrass music. In the home of Anni Beach of Chandler, they teach each other, gather twice a week, practice, dance, entertain, and at the center, maintain the singular goal to make themselves and others happy with their music. The band is ever grateful for the wonderful venues, the donations of instruments and other needs, and the constant encouragement from the bluegrass community of Arizona.

Old Arizona Brass Band
Frontier Military Brass Performing Saturday 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM The Old Arizona Brass Band (Tucson's Historic Brass Band) was founded in Fall of 1996 by Ray Hicks to provide a living representation of the military and civilian bands that performed throughout Arizona during the period 1872 to 1912. The group's music, uniforms, and instrumentation reflect a transitional point between the all brass "over the shoulder" instrumentation of the Civil War years and the shift to primarily bell-front brass and expanded mix of reed and brass instruments of the modern day concert band. When you see and hear the Old Arizona Brass Band, you experience the real music of the military and town bands of the western frontier. The volunteer group carrys on the music of the 4th Cavalry Regimental Band of Ft. Lowell, Arizona Territory. |
Zach Farley & Friends
World / Folk Performing Saturday 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM When Patagonia musician and instrument maker Zach Farley was 8 years-old, one event changed the course of his life. He took up guitar at a young age, that helped to fill the void in his life. Decades later, he's a musician, artist and craftsman making flutes, drums and guitars from gourds harvested in the field. “From seed to song,” he says. Learn more about this group here. |
