Grampas Chili: Based in the beautiful Santa Cruz Mountains of California, Grampas Chili has been redefining and reinvigorating the west coast Jamband scene with their own brand of neo-Americana music for over 20 years.
Combining elements of jazz, rock, bluegrass, folk, and westcoast psychedelic, Grampas Chili shows feature a vast repertoire of original tunes that thrive on intelligent songwriting, exploration and liberal doses of serendipity. A Grampas Chili show is a celebration of positive vibes, rockin jams, warm smiles and unbridled joy!

Seamlessly combining Rock, Funk, Latin and Jazz influences, Brightshine has created an expansive and expressive sound that is uniquely their own. Brightshine features Pete Sawyer's evocative lyrics and stylistically diverse compositions as well as the band's fluidly expressive improvisations. Their debut album Shadows In The Sky was recorded live with minimal overdubs and is a document of the musical prowess and tone poetry of the musicians as well as the telepathic interaction the band built with one another during the arrangement and recording process. Brightshine integrates influences as diverse as Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Fela Kuti, The Grateful Dead and Snarky Puppy, while cultivating a sound that is thoroughly original. The band features Celso Alberti (Steve Winwood, Airto), Jordan Feinstein (Phil Lesh, Stu Allen), Murph Murphy (Poor Man's Whiskey, Stu Allen), Pete Sawyer (Seconds On End, The Left Hand Monkey Wrench Gang) and Maria Caycedo (Verismo Opera Company).
