We are beyond proud to support this beloved tradition. It celebrates much of what we love about Bend: Natural beauty, wonderful people, and, of course, great music and food.

MUNCH & MUSIC CONCERTS IN DRAKE PARK LIVE ON THE STILSON BUILDERS STAGE

MUSIC STARTS AT 5:30PM • WWW.MUNCHANDMUSIC.COM • PRODUCTION PROVIDED BY THE MELNER GROUP

JULY

MOONTRICKS

with Special Guest MAMA’S BOY Based in the rustic Kootenay mountains of Western Canada, Nathan Gurley and Sean Rodman of nationally renowned electro-folk duo Moontricks draw inspiration from the ongoing cycles of the natural world. Both volatile and constant—like nature’s best offerings—the band finds solace and beauty in the fusion of seemingly disparate elements. There’s a kind of technicolor campfire quality to their uniquely hybrid sound: Each track is steeped in tradition and polished with a futuristic sheen.

THE ORIGINAL WAILERS

JULY

9

with Special Guest SUN DIVE

In 1974 when Bob Marley went solo, he surprised the music community by choosing as American born lead guitarist, Al Anderson. It was Anderson's stunning lead work on such classics as No Woman, No Cry, & Three O’clock Road Block, that first alerted rock fans to the Wailer’s music. The Orignal Wailers received their own Grammy nomination in 2013 for their album ‘Miracle’ making it Andersons’ second Grammy Nomination. Al Anderson is the sole member of the Bob Marley & The Wailers mid - 1970’s lineup in the Original Wailers.

LEFTOVER SALMON with Special Guest KOTA DOSA

Leftover Salmon is a band who for more than thirty-five years has never stood still; they are constantly changing and inspiring. If someone wanted to understand what Americana music is, go to a Leftover Salmon show. They effortlessly glide from a bluegrass number born on the front porch, to the down-and-dirty Cajun swamps with a stop on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, to the hallowed halls of the Ryman in Nashville, before firing one up in the mountains of Colorado.

JULY

QUEEN MOTHER (QUEEN TRIBUTE BAND)

with Special Guests BADUKO AND BAHURO MARIMBA BANDS Stomp, clap, sing, and shout... Be a part of the show as "Queen Mother" pays tribute to Queen's music in the space where it belongs, live on stage. Hailing from Seattle, Queen Mother harnesses the Northwest’s best talent to bring these epic songs to life, including Under Pressure, We Are the Champions, Bohemian Rhapsody, and many more. With each show they make the whole room a stage, hoping to draw out your inner “Freddie.”

LARRY AND HIS FLASK with Special Guest JOEL CHADD

Larry and His Flask is a genre-bending powerhouse from Central Oregon, known for their explosive energy, heartfelt songwriting, 3 part harmonies and an unmistakable sound that blends Punk Rock energy with the soul of Americana. Their music is packed with breakneck banjo riffs, catchy horn riffs, anthemic choruses, and lyrics that speak to the struggles and joys of life on the fringe.

With a deep commitment to authenticity and pedal to the metal attitude, Larry and His Flask defy genres and expectations.

PRECIOUS BYRD

with Special Guests CHAINED TO STONE, GHOST RADIO and YOUNG GUNS Precious Byrd is one of the most sought after bands in the Pacific Northwest. This funky rock n’ roll dance band will make any event take flight! Voted #1 Party Band in Oregon multiple years running. Their fresh renditions of modern and classic hits, along with a number of high energy originals are sure to fill the dance floor and get people on their feet!
