When Bill Wyman asked Jeffrey Halford to do one of his songs (Mississippi Flyer)
He replied: “It would be an honor”.
Over the last 30 years, Halford has been touring the country with his band, the Healers. They have played shows with some of music’s most acclaimed artists and songwriters — as well as Halford’s influences — such as Taj Mahal, Los Lobos, George Thorogood, Gregg Allman, Etta James, John Hammond, and Texas Greats Augie Meyers, Guy Clark and Robert Earl Keen. He has six European tours under his belt with his most recent album reaching number one on the Euro-Americana charts. His latest single "Rhythm of the Rails" is receiving extensive support on both radio & YouTube.
Her perfectly curated covers may draw you in, but her award-winning originals will cement your faith in the real artistry coming out of the Central CA Coast. Performing soul, blues, rock and folk, ringing with tones of Bonnie Raitt and Susan Tedeschi, Susan Ritchie consistently grows her audience with both her intimate solo acoustic performances, and the uptempo sets backed by her full band of seasoned musicians. An accomplished guitarist, Ritchie’s rhythm and finger-picking styles are at the center of her songwriting and performances. 2X New Times award winner and her new single "Tumbleweed" releases July 15 , the first follow-up to her last album, Life Is For The Living.
As a student of guitar for over 40 years, Gary has mastered a specialized sound and performance on an 8-string guitar, a hybrid instrument which combines both elements of a guitar and bass in one. Splitting half the strings to the bass, and the other to guitar, each sound is wired to its own amp, essentially playing the part of two instruments. New fans are awed and old fans have been treated to this phenomenon for the last 5 years as Gary represents both the bassist and guitarist for local award-winning band, Moonshiner Collective. Gary's solo instrumental release "Gary Wooten’s Low Standards, Vol.1" features beloved standards on this exceptional instrument.
