Up and Coming Musicians 6:15-6:45 PM
14-year-old Miles Wiedenhoeft (piano), 12-year-old Jonas Feith (saxophone and cello) and 11-year-old Micah Vedder (drums) are inspiring our hope in the future generation of musicians. Watch as they transfix the room with their youthful energy and passion for music, and help us remember our own passions from our childhood. Cheer them on at their first-ever performance together, with many more in their future.

Automatic Lover 7-8 PM
When keyboards steeped in jazz and salsa meet guitars raised on 80’s hardcore and afrobeat, and the bass slaps back at its early metal roots backed up by a whole funky horn section, you get Automatic Lover.
Uriel López-Rodríguez (vocals), Mark Marsh (drums), Brett Farrey (bass), Matthew Reif (keys), and Shanan Galligan (guitar) have put together a concept band that incorporates each musician’s lifetime of inspiration, bringing you music that makes you move, music that can change on a dime. Weaving together anything from trap beats to soca, garage punk to samba, psychedelic prog to heavy disco, Automatic Lover is an experience all on its own, a celebration of love for music in its many expressions and the power of how it transforms us.
