June 15 = PIXIE & The PARTYGRASS BOYS
Hailed as “the hottest band in the Wasatch” by the Intermountain Acoustic Music Association, Pixie and The Partygrass Boys is composed of lifelong professional musicians drawn together by a common love of bluegrass and skiing in the Wasatch. Featuring soulful, often harmonic vocals and solid strings and rhythm, this tight-knit crew was born out of the belly of a warm cabin after a long day on the slopes, sipping whiskey and singing into the night. With a high energy sound and a love for silly outfits, they travel the land spreading the gospel of whiskey, chickens, and fun for everyone. They’ve been touring extensively since the release of their 2018 debut EP "Utah Made" with notable festival appearances that include becoming a five-year fixture at WinterWonderGrass, as well as gracing the stages of Bourbon and Beyond, Delfest, High Sierra Music Festival, Jam Cruise, Rockygrass, Blue Ox Music Festival, and Hangtown. They have directly supported musical greats such as Billy Strings, The Infamous Stringdusters, Grace Potter, Lindsay Lou, The Brothers Comatose, and Lake Street Dive.
“If Bill Monroe and Emmylou Harris road-tripped to Burning Man and then moved to the mountains to write music and ski you would have Pixie & the Partygrass Boys.” – Americana UK

AUGUST 10 = ELECTRO LUST
Where Electronic Funk pulses through the veins, entwined with a stampede of live Beats and Brass. This musical journey begins with a deep connection between electronics and live musicians, ignited by a passion for multi-cultural rhythms that echo across the festival scene. At the core of Electro Lust beats the hearts of Grammy Award-winning artists from Asheville, NC's musical scene: Yo Mama’s Big Fat Booty Band, The Fritz, Empire Strikes Brass, & Marcus King Band. Their odyssey into the realms of Funk, Latin, Cuban, and Afrobeat reads like a musical adventure, spawned from encounters with diverse cultures while on the road and under the influence of vinyl treasures unearthed in record shops scattered across the nation. The soundtrack to this journey is an eclectic hip-hop mix tape, a melodic manifesto that invites you to lose yourself in the raw energy of the Electro Lust experience. Strap in and let the music guide you through this electrifying tapestry of sound and sensation.
“Suddenly you're whisked away, careening from the neon-lit confines of a Miami nightclub, drifting to the sun-soaked sands of a Brazilian beach, and finally landing amidst the vibrant chaos of Cuban streets.” – Electro Lust website
