Explore the timeless sounds of folk-rock with Sunset Sessions: Folk Rock & Sound of the Open Road, celebrating the acoustic rhythms and storytelling magic of legends like CSNY, Joni Mitchell, and Jackson Browne. 

Then, experience Moonlit Miles: Rock’s Wild West of Grit and Groove—from dusty desert roads to the starry skies, explore the bluesy, soul-stirring, and slightly trippy sounds of Santana, Jefferson Airplane, and The Doors. 

Plus, enjoy a special guest performance from Miss America Nina Davuluri, Jordan Flippo, and more! 

Dive into the smooth, jazzy sophistication of Yacht Rock with Smooth Sailing: A Voyage Through Yacht Rock’s Finest featuring the polished grooves of Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, and Christopher Cross. 

Journey through Pacific Power: The Soundtrack of Cali’s Rock Revolution, where you'll experience the iconic fusion of blues, psychedelic, country, and hard rock that shaped California’s rock scene from the ‘60s to the ‘80s. 

End the evening with a performance by The Permutations, a all-original band formed through our Music Makers Workshops!
