Outdoor. All ages. 5pm Campfire. 6pm Concert.** Sonoma County indie\, avant-folk artist Gillian Grogan is hitting the road this summer\, releasing two new studio singles and sharing her signature sounds with audiences from Seattle to Boston\, Asheville to Denver\, Bozeman to the Bay and many towns between. Let's give her a Grove-worthy send-off and enjoy a night of magical music and good food and company around the campfire. Her forthcoming release "Ants In The Garden" made a huge splash as one of the top five finalists in last year's NPR Tiny Desk Contest. The much-anticipated studio single arrives this June alongside what promises to be a festive first few weeks of tour\, performing as a duo with Madeleine Froncek on the bass and backup vocals! Grogan has woven together little strands of folk\, indie\, rock\, soul and nature itself into a sonic landscape "unlike anything else you've heard in 'folk' music today" (Ear To The Ground). Tickled strings\, floating vocals\, hammered riffs and belted requests she has taken the plot and given it curves\, let it swell and shrink back again. Her debut album Neither Lost Nor Found rumbles with a thirst for adventure\, devastating loss and hopeful love against an endless quest for balance\, for peace. Untamed and untethered\, her pure yet earthy voice will silence the room one moment and have it in stitches the next. NPR Music's Felix Contreras calls her performance "six strings and the truth." The Woven Collective calls it "an unforgiving tuggin' at your roots like gentle reminders of another life you haven't had yet." Grogan recently finished recording her second studio album\, Honey Moon\, at 2200 Studios (formerly The Record Plant) in Sausalito\, CA with Grammy-nominated co-producer Ben Bloomberg and Grammy-nominated recording engineer Damien Lewis. Honey Moon explores questions without answers\, love without purpose\, and chords without resolve. It embraces readiness without preparation\, vulnerabilities without judgement\, and seeks to release the present from the past. It is a collection of songs and interludes that speak to a single truth that it is our flaws which make us most beautiful\, just as it is the dust and pollution in the earth's atmosphere which casts a warm amber hue on the moon at the horizon\, as it rises\, as it falls\, and rises again. Catch her evolving live performance on tour across the United States all summer\, where $1 from each ticket sold will go directly into the album "Honey Fund"\, a crowdfunded campaign to raise the rest of the money needed to launch this independent record release! There's no record label pushing this out\, just team GG and all of you! Come pre-order the record\, enjoy some new tour-exclusive merch\, and kick back for what promises to be a whimsical journey through the sights and sounds of your new favorite ramblin'\, deep-feeling North American songstress. Pairs well with massive vistas\, bustling gardens\, light mischief\, hope and traveling alone. "Six strings and the truth" - NPR Music "A stunning and infectious voice." - Montana Records "Powerhouse emotive folk storytelling." - We All Need Someone To Shout For "Experimental\, deep and sensational." - Ear To The Ground https://gilliangrogan.com https://linktr.ee/gilliangrogan X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:**Dinner and drink available but not included in ticket price.
