Multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, songwriter, and producer Cruz Contreras has roots in Tennessee and Michigan but has impacted Americana music worldwide. The frontman, founder, and driving force behind The Black Lillies’ raw and rootsy sound also co-founded Robinella and the CCstringband, and has been an innovative force in the world of Americana now for nearly three decades. His projects have topped both the Billboard and Americana radio charts, won Independent Music Awards, and been nominated for the Americana Music Association’s Emerging Artist of the Year award. Over the years, Cruz has appeared on nationally broadcasted television including Late Night with Conan O’Brien, CMT, VH-1, GAC, Bluegrass Underground and PBS Television’s Sun Studio Sessions and Mountain Stage. His music has been lauded by outlets as diverse as American Songwriter Magazine, Rolling Stone, NPR’s Morning Edition and Vanity Fair, among others. As an independent artist, Contreras has played Nashville’s lauded Grand Ole Opry 40 times over the years. Contreras is currently on the road performing his debut solo album, Cosmico, as well as his extensive Black Lillies catalog. Griffin William Sherry, a Maine-born singer-songwriter, has captivated audiences with his raspy, soulful voice and heartfelt storytelling. Known for his work as a founding member of the acclaimed band Ghost of Paul Revere, Sherry has now embarked on an exciting solo career, carrying forward the roots and Americana influences that have defined his music. His debut solo album, Hundred Mile Wilderness, marks a bold new chapter. Recorded in Nashville with veteran producer Eddie Spear—renowned for his work with Sierra Ferrell, Brandi Carlile, and Zach Bryan—the album blends Sherry’s distinct vocal grit with sprawling, dynamic instrumentation. Tracks like “Reflections” feature gospel-inflected backing vocals and explosive climaxes, while songs such as “Roll With The Punches” weave in infectious, anthemic choruses ready for singalongs. Sherry’s ability to balance intimate gestures and high-energy moments makes his music as deeply personal as it is universally resonant. Food, beer, wine, spirits and our famous margarita's will be available for purchase. This is a free, outdoor, and family friendly event, so no outside alcohol, dogs must be leashed and waste cleaned up.
