Boo Rigney plays acoustic guitar and sings everything from Joni Mitchell to bluegrass and folk standards. She also can be found singing jazz tunes frequently at Melvyn’s in downtown Palm Springs. Favorite thing? Vocal harmony!
Joshua Winget has been playing music ever since he can remember, starting out playing brass in school bands, but his love for music exploded when he heard the Beatles at 7 years old. He’s been playing guitar and bass since 13 years old, played in many bands through college, ranging in styles from rock to pop to jazz, folk, and blues.

SUN, 10.20 Boo Rigney and Joshua Winget & Nathan James Trio
Nathan James is a true original American roots music artist who makes a lot of sound pickin’ and scratchin’ on his handmade invention of washboard guitar; stomping out funky beats on his custom foot percussion box; all while singing and blowing harmonica or kazoo to his own original music. Nathan is also a well respected world renown roots and blues guitarist who is always in demand for back up many legends on stage and in the studio.

SUN, 11.8 Francesca Brown
Francesca Brown is a singer-songwriter and California native, steeped in the sound and visual traditions of the Southwest. Her love for old timey country and folk is offset by an inherent Laurel Canyon meets California Country vibe. All of these influences coexist in her evocative soundscapes, which fall somewhere between Joni Mitchell and Loretta Lynn.
