Daring Greatly
Hailing originally from Calgary and now thriving in Southern California, Daring Greatly burst onto the scene in 2015 with a sound that mixes classic rock, soulful country, and Americana. Fronted by brothers Patrick and Liam Croome along with drummer Brayden Tario—and complemented by Brendan Cutrer on bass and Jeff Starkey on electric guitar—the band has become known for their captivating harmonies and electrifying live shows. With accolades like “Song of the Year” at the San Diego Music Awards for their hit "Never A Goodbye" and a history of sharing stages with legends like Bon Jovi and Young the Giant, they’re ready to inspire you with their heartfelt message to “dare greatly.”
Jesse Ray Smith
Drawing inspiration from the open highways and sun-soaked California vibes, Jesse Ray Smith delivers a modern take on Americana that’s equal parts indie folk and heartland rock. With deeply personal lyrics and a sound reminiscent of classic rock legends like Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen, Jesse, along with his longtime collaborators Sean Cox Briar (guitar) and John Varn (keys), crafts songs that feel both timeless and refreshingly new. His 2023 album “Back to Yesterday”—produced by Grammy-winning Tyler Chester—showcases his soulful storytelling and road-tested musicianship. Expect a live show that’s as heartfelt as it is powerful, leaving you with an experience that resonates long after the last note.
Kimmi Bitter
Bringing a fresh and exciting twist to classic country, Kimmi Bitter and the Westside Twang are setting the stage for the future of the genre. With a sound that mixes 1960s Countrypolitan vibes with psychedelic twangs and a modern mod flair, Kimmi’s debut album “Old School” made waves on the Top 25 Americana Album Radio Chart in 2024. Her award-winning single "Aquamarine"—a standout at the 2024 San Diego Music Awards—along with multiple nominations and chart-topping accolades, proves that her live performance is not to be missed. Prepare to be swept up in a sonic journey that blends nostalgia with innovation.
Come out for a night where rock, Americana, and country converge in a celebration of bold creativity and heartfelt expression. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to these rising stars, this event promises to be a magical mix of energy, passion, and unforgettable live music.
Mark your calendars, invite your friends, and join us for an evening that dares you to feel, sing, and celebrate the power of music.
