Midnight River Choir

Midnight River Choir

Midnight River Choir is coming BACK to the press! Don’t miss their performance with us after they hit the stage at Music Fest 2024!

The formation of Midnight River Choir was nothing short of a force of nature that now translates seamlessly during their live shows. This band needs no labels or comparisons. Their music speaks volumes about who and what they are. Their lives have been woven together by a strong thread of energy both on and off stage. That energy is raw and natural and soaked up from the earth through their bare feet. They believe that what you get is what you give and they give everything they have to their crowds. When that kind of energy lands back at the feet of the boys, it is something of supreme intensity… and no one ever forgets it.

 

Sour Bridges

Sour Bridges

Come catch them before their performance at Music Fest!
A self proclaimed Austin “browngrass” band, Sour Bridges is bringing their dirty bluegrass tunes to the mountains of Steamboat Springs!

Sour Bridges actually has its genesis in the Pocono Mountains of Northeastern Pennsylvania. That’s where Long Island-born Pucci and his brother, Matt (lead guitar, mandolin, vocals), were raised. Both are self-taught players, but their musical interests were encouraged by their grandfather, who bought them instruments and even built Bill’s four left-handed banjos. They made their way to Austin in 2007, immediately finding a community of like-minded talents. Their latest incarnation includes Will Vaughan on bass and vocals and Marc Randal Henry on drums and percussion. “He’s a little more of a rock drummer,” says Bill, “so there’s a little bit of a different vibe.”
