Wednesday 4/1
Brave Combo
Grammy Award-Winning Brave Combo are a polka/rock band based in Denton, Texas.
Founded in 1979 by guitarist / keyboardist / accordionist Carl Finch, they have been a prominent fixture in the Texas music scene for more than twenty-five years. Their music, both originals and covers, incorporates a number of dance styles, mostly polka, but also rumba, cha-cha-cha, choro, samba, two-step, cumbia, charanga, merengue.

Friday 4/3
Carolyn Wonderland & Mike McClure
A triple threat with her diverse songwriting, soulful vocals, and guitar goddess status — all featured on over twenty CDs, six of which are her releases — she has a pedigree in this business that’s hard to match. A bit of a renegade, she likes to incorporate elements of Blues, Country, Swing, Zydeco, Surf, Gospel, Soul, and some nights, maybe even a Cumbia into the musical mix...
Without Mike McClure, the Red Dirt music that we know and love today would most certainly have a different sound to it. He began shaping that sound over a decade ago as the front man of The Great Divide. He continued shaping it as one of the most sought after producers of Red Dirt bands.

Asleep At The Wheel
Asleep At The Wheel earned six Grammy Awards, kept a buzz on a genre that might be described as "fringe," while maintaining a musical integrity that's never waivered. They have won nine Grammy Awards since their inception in 1970. In their career, they have released more than twenty studio albums, and have charted more than twenty singles on the Billboard country charts. "Asleep at the Wheel's take on Western swing should be especially interesting to fans of early 20th-century American popular music. Their fidelity to the source material means that traces of jazz swing, ragtime and Dixieland are preserved as if in amber, sounding much as they did in the '30s and '40s." - Washington Times
