About
Bri Rivera & Friends have been performing for over a decade -- blending Latin Fusion, Funk, Blues, and Rock.
Bri was born and raised in Cidra, Puerto Rico, and grew up in a very musical family. At age 9, she picked up the cuatro (a typical instrument from Puerto Rico). At age 12, she decided to become a guitarist. Randy Bordon was born and raised in Cuba, and soon realized after joining the military that he'd rather play the upright bass. Adam Sahhar, originally from Buffalo, NY, has played the drums since age 12. His unique drum setup creates a style all his own that adds amazing flare to the band's groove.
About
Based in Tampa Bay, The Wandering Hours are an original take on traditional American string music combining old-time, early bluegrass, and folk into a dancey and lyrically deep band that always entertains fans of string music and first-time listeners.
Formed in 2018, they harness powerful lyrics and uplifting melodies using fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar, and upright bass. They write original music in this vein, as well as play some of the important songs and tunes from these eras.

About
Clover’s Revenge is a dangerous intersection of two Irish musical traditions: Acoustic pub music and Celtic punk rock.
Using the simplest possible instrumentation, the trio creates an explosive sound, with rich harmonies and provocative original lyrics, at speed. Fans say their shows are high energy and hilarious. Steeped – no – pickled in the traditions of the Dubliners, Pogues, Silly Wizard and Flogging Molly, the band insists upon high-speed, technical traditional tunes and punk rock badassery.
