Ruby Lee Hill: an Oakland-based Americana/country artist, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist known for her raw, heartfelt stories of love, loss, and the feminine experience. Raised on a horse farm, her music is influenced by Appalachian bluegrass and classic country, often described as having a “desperado cowgirl” spirit. Ruby’s songs share rich, evocative stories of love and loss, interwoven with the classic honky tonk themes of infidelity, misogyny, and vulnerability. A vocalist, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, people are always impressed to learn that the song they just heard her sing is not a traditional classic but, in fact, a Ruby Lee Original. Check her music out here: https://youtu.be/1xQn1Sn9gbM?si=CFqO3-_La93T0v6Z

Leah & Jeremy: Canyonites Leah Wollenberg (fiddle, vocals) and Jeremy Reinhard (banjo, guitar, vocals) met at a jam session and quickly figured out that making music together was a darn good time. Drawing from their backgrounds in bluegrass, traditional Irish music, and a shared love of old time, Leah and Jeremy create a string band sound that weaves together these musical threads while maintaining respect for their distinct natures.

Sibling Revelry: Siblings Bethany, Esperanza and Greg take you on a musical adventure to places both new and familiar. They grew up playing music together and have played nationally and internationally separately and together in bands too numerous to mention. Bethany (vocals, bass, guitar with the Good Old Persons, Any Old Time, All Girl Boys), Greg (guitar, mandolin, bass, Paul Seibel, jazz greats…), and Esperanza (vocals, guitar, with Oboy, In The Dark). They often appear with guest soloists, be there to see what they have planned for this special event.

Súil na Seabhac (pronounced Sool-na Sah-vick) is a teen Irish band directed by Darcy Noonan of the Noonan School of Irish Music. Their name means “eye of the hawk” in Irish, and the group is made up of seven enthusiastic young musicians brought together by a shared love of traditional Irish music. They captivate audiences with lively jigs and reels, as well as traditional songs, bringing both energy and heart to every performance. As part of the next generation of tradition-bearers, they are committed to keeping this rich musical heritage alive.

Kids Performer: Doug Cole, Doug’s Drama and Storytelling, Cole’s Arts Camp
Doug has been perfecting the art of storytelling to children for over 25 years. Doug is well known as one of the preeminent children’s storytellers in the Bay Area, and is an accomplished musician, playing harmonica and percussion in some of the top blues bands in the East Bay. Doug’s stories include comedy, folk and fairy tales, and myths and legends from around the world.
