JUNE 7TH
Sonoran Swing has been performing classic swing in Arizona for more than 25 years. As one of the few big bands playing the songs from the 30s, 40, and 50s, our 22 piece dance orchestra features two outstanding vocalists, a complete horn section, and versatile rhythm section. We play all the great charts from the past 75 years, and a large variety of styles, from classic swing to 60’s rock.
JUNE 14TH
Pilgrims Rider is a high-energy 6-piece band hailing from Heber, Arizona, bringing the best of classic rock and country to venues and private parties across the White Mountains and Valley. Whether performing as a solo act, duo, or full band, they deliver an unforgettable live music experience that gets audiences on their feet and keeps the good times rolling. Known for their powerful performances and versatile sound, Pilgrims Rider is the perfect choice for any event looking to add that special musical touch. From local venues to private parties, their dynamic shows are always the highlight of the night!
JUNE 21ST
Big Daddy D and The Dynamites have been entertaining audiences throughout Arizona for the past 25 years. The Dynamites are a fluid group of well-versed and highly sought-after musicians from around the state.
Big Daddy D (Darryl Porras) formed the band in 1999, blending traditional blues with a modern twist. With 30+ years of guitar experience, he’s been nominated for the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame and won the 2007 Arizona Blues Showdown. Darryl also played guitar for Cros, who placed second at the 2022 International Blues Challenge.
JUNE 28TH
Born and raised in Arizona’s vibrant bluegrass scene, Ten Dollar Wedding is a 5-piece band with a love of tradition and an eye toward the future. While the lineup (banjo, guitar, fiddle, mandolin, bass) and tight harmonies are something Bill Monroe might recognize, the band’s original material and arrangements mark Ten Dollar Wedding as a thoroughly contemporary act.
JULY 12th
Metropolis Man is a Folk/Soul/Roots Rock ‘n’ Roll band based in Phoenix, Arizona. With a unique blend of heartfelt lyrics and infectious grooves, they create a sound that resonates with fans of all genres. Their latest track, “Enough For 3,” showcases their signature style—catchy, soulful, and full of raw emotion.
JULY 19th
Gummersall’s musical journey has been marked by significant milestones, including recording “Beer and a Rose” with his Nashville Dream Band and producing his third studio album, “Long Ride Home,” under the guidance of Grammy-award winner Lloyd Maines. The album garnered widespread acclaim, with radio play across the country, tens of thousands of streams and positive reviews.
“Writing has just been a part of my life and journey as an artist ever since the beginning,” Gummersall said.
