It’s official, the Beaverstock 2015 lineup is here and we could not be happier with how it turned out! After lots of research (attending live shows/festivals) and deliberation we have put together a lineup of artists that we truly feel represent the philosophy and mission of Beaverstock. Not only do we have world-class talent, we have a wonderful variety of musical genres and styles.

Our goal with the Beaverstock musical lineup is to bring you music that you may or may not have heard of but that we know will leave you with an everlasting impression. Each and every artist that will take to the stage has been hand picked by us because we were truly moved, inspired or amazed with their live performance. There is nothing better than an unforgettable live show and there will be no shortage of memories made at this year’s festival.

Our Saturday headliner, Dawes, is one such band that utterly blew us away when we saw them perform. They have been on our list of bands to bring since year one and luckily for us this year it worked out! Dawes is the type of band that only comes along every so often and portrays an authenticity in their music that can be related to Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne and other artists of that nature. After their second release they were asked to open for Bob Dylan on tour and subsequently joined Jackson Browne on tour as his opening act and backing band. These guys are the real deal and we can’t wait for you to experience the magic with us.

Our Sunday headliner, WAR, needs little explanation as their iconic music has resonated with millions of people for decades. WAR brings to the table a long list of hit songs and a live performance that will have everyone on their feet or at least on the edge of their seat! Last time we saw WAR perform, we all left with giant smiles on our faces and to say the least we had a very groovy time….

Some other groups we are particularly excited to bring are up and comers the California Honeydrops, La Santa Cecilia, Birds of Chicago, The Bills, SambaDá and the Brothers Comatose. These groups bring such an eclectic mix of music to the table and a level of talent that can’t be beat. The California Honeydrops are one of the most entertaining live groups we have ever seen. They blend the worlds of New Orleans street music, Delta blues and Southern soul in a way that is undeniably fun and unforgettable. Birds of Chicago have now performed at our tasting room twice with both shows selling out and leaving the audience begging for more. The husband and wife duo that front the group are wonderful harmonizers, storytellers and melody makers. Another “SLO Folks” act that has graced our Tasting Room stage over the years are the Bills who will bring an eclectic blend of blue grass, soul, jazz and instrumental virtuosity.

La Santa Cecilia, Grammy award winner for Best Latin Rock Album, were utterly amazing on the main stage at Live Oak Music Festival last summer and we immediately knew we had to have them at Beaverstock. Their latino sound is fronted by lead vocalist La Marisoul who sings with a passion that will send goose bumps down your spine. SambaDá also brings a world music flavor to Beaverstock with samba insprired Brazilian dance music. I actually had the pleasure of opening for SamaDá in college up in Chico, CA and I will never forget the energy and dance they bring to their live shows. SambaDá is not only a show of live music they are an expression of Brazilian dance and heritage. The Brothers Comatose, who were a last minute addition to this year’s lineup, will definitely be a group people talk about for years to come. Known for high energy, audience engaging shows, their blue grass sound will resonate perfectly with Beaverstock festivalgoers.

As usual we’ve also got a great representation of local music at the festival including the Tipsy Gypsies, The Mother Corn Shuckers, One Time Spaceman, Guy Budd with Inga Swearingen, Bear Market Riot, Chris Beland and the Turkey Buzzards. This is the cream of the crop of local talent and every artist has expressed an amazing passion for being involved with this year’s event.
