- **Event Name**: NIGHTBRAIN and Ginger Molasses - Live at the Crazy Horse
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 09:00 pm (-07:00)
- **Event Description**: On May 1, 2025, four bands entered the gladiator pit of the Crazy Horse Saloon and only one came out standing. These were the top selections by judges determining who would compete for a coveted opportunity to play the High Sierra Music Festival. The final band to play that night was a largely unknown up-and-comer from Quincy, CA (conveniently the home of the festival). With some tough acts to follow, they proceeded to captivate the crowd and the judges with their almost indescribable, genre-redefining performance. It started as, “WTF is this!?” To, “I can’t get enough of this.” 

After making a splash as the opening band of their home festival, NIGHTBRAIN returned to the Crazy Horse last August and their identity came into sharper focus. Beginning as two friends exploring music therapy in a cabin in the woods, NIGHTBRAIN has grown to a six-piece project, tapped in to a vein of ingenuity and a multi-layered foundation of groove. 

NIGHTBRAIN unfurl a blend of moody groove, psych-rock, Latin-hued global exotica and soulful chill-hop. Haunting female vocals from Suzanne de Martimprey emblazon the mood with a slithery, retro allure. Think Portishead in the Copacabana with a female David Byrne on a designer drug administered by a Nordic shaman.

How poetic is it that the band who came in second to NIGHTBRAIN in that High Sierra competition has formed a friendship with them and will be kicking off the night on this occasion?! Ginger Molasses captivates audiences with an intoxicating and energetic blend of nostalgia and innovation. Channeling the golden era of the 1960s and 70s, the band delivers a timeless, yet cutting-edge rock, funk and soul experience. Frontwoman Tawnee Kendall holds nothing back in delivering over-the-top performances, outrageous costumes and soul-stirring vocals to keep audiences riveted from start to finish. Backed by a collective of seasoned musicians who all display a cool swagger of their own, Ginger Molasses boasts a caliber of songwriting and showmanship that truly stands out among the local music scene.
