~About The Event~

Oh He Dead
Washington DC’s Oh He Dead brings their funky, poppy rock vibes wherever they go. Led by CJ Bowlin’ Johnson and her golden pipes, the five-piece group includes lead guitarist Alex Salser, John Daise-on-the-bass (say it outloud), Adam Ashforth on drums, and ViRG on keys. The close-knit crew is known for their contagious joy, and for putting on a hell of a live show as Johnson “maneuvers her powerful voice — a combination of Stevie Nicks and Tracy Chapman” (Kojo Nnamdi) in rhythm with the band’s “sublime instrumentation” (NPR) and “infectious and soulful sound” (Washington Post). Their third album, Ugly is out this spring.

Lua Project
Lua Project is a cultural pollinator, bridging together musical styles from different continents and different centuries. They write about contemporary themes, about families, and communities, of work and loss, but draw on the musical traditions of their own cultural past.
The music is inspired by Mexican and Appalachian song forms, Jewish and Eastern European tonalities, baroque melodic ideas, & narrative storytelling approaches. They have created a repertoire that constitutes a new traditional music that is being shared with their children to experience, transform, and pass on.


It takes a village to make the magic of these concerts possible! A huge thank you to Flow Subaru, WNRN, Tiger Solar, Martin Horn, and Sun Tribe for supporting local music and community gatherings. We’ll also be serving some of the finest local beer, wine, and cider from our wonderful community partners: a big thank you to Random Row Brewing Company, Potter’s Craft Cider, and Blenheim Vineyards for being our exclusive beverage partners, and to our Artist Hospitality sponsor Hogwaller Brewing. Please visit and support these local businesses – they’re wonderful people, passionate about our community, and we’re grateful to feature them at Rivanna Roots 2025
