FRIDAY, MAY 2: Rica Chicha - Chicha ( pronounced CHEE- chuh) is a fermented corn drink from the Andes and Rica Chicha is the closest to it that you will find in this region. They will electrify you with originals as well as with genre-defying versions of many other songs from around the world. Originally from the exotic lands of Knoxville, TN, this 7 piece band takes inspiration from the psychedelic Peruvian cumbia groups of the 60's and Latin American folk, punk, rock, and ska from the ‘80s and ‘90s. From the jungles of Peru to the mountains of the Appalachias, Rica Chicha makes music with no borders.

SATURDAY, MAY 3: Paisley Fields writes country music. His songs are tender and authentic, but also pretty good with a joke. They're mindful of tradition, but deeply informed by his singular background - as a teenage Midwestern church pianist, a Manhattan piano bar survivor, and a touring member of pioneering queer country outfit, Lavender Country. The stories are his, but he feeling they convey - love, lonliness, and so on - are hopefully, still universal.
