SATURDAY
LARA BELL
Country artist Lara Bell is a singer/songwriter from the northern Illinois area. She was born and raised with southern inspired roots and has performed hundreds of live shows between Chicagoland and Southern WI at various well known venues. Fans have compared Lara’s voice to the queen of country music herself, Miss Dolly Parton, along with Miranda Lambert, Jewel, Ingrid Michaeslon, Brandi Carlile, Alanis Morissette, and Joni Mitchell.
NICOLE NYSTROM
Singer/songwriter bringing you country & americana music with a western, bluesy flair. “She’s got a teal hat and a turquoise heart”
Headliner
JAMESON RODGERS
Raised on the country rebels of old, country music’s newest powerhouse Jameson Rodgers currently finds himself basking in the success of two consecutive No. 1 hits, with his Platinum-certified debut “Some Girls” and follow-up smash “Cold Beer Calling My Name,” featuring labelmate Luke Combs, making back-to-back runs up the charts. And now, with the release of his debut album Bet You’re from a Small Town and his new single “Missing One” hitting airwaves across the nation, the soft-spoken yet edgy country traditionalist just might find himself landing in superstar territory.
SUNDAY
BEACH BASH
Family Friendly Activities provided by The Chapel and other McHenry Area Chamber businesses.
Perfect for families! In addition to the bands, children will enjoy activities and entertainment including inflatables, face painting, dunk tank, games and prizes. Home Depot will be providing their Kids Build-It workshop. FREE Admission Day!
JIMMY NICK
Jimmy Nick is an old-fashioned, guitar slinging blues prodigy who spent his teenage years being schooled by legendary bluesmen in the famous Chicago clubs of Kingston Mines, Rosa’s Lounge, and B.L.U.E.S. on Halsted.
Today Jimmy’s mission is to expose the next generation to the blues. Driven by his motown-tight band, Don’t Tell Mama, featuring saxophone, bass, and drums Jimmy excites crowds with his electrifying guitar work, fresh harp, clever lyrics and animated stage theatrics. His high energy blues and rock-n-roll captivate audiences, and forge instant fans.
PINO FARINA
Led by charismatic vocalist and guitarist Pino Farina, Chicago-based alternative rockers Pino Farina Band offer up a unique blend of music with raw unhinged expression and showmanship. Forceful, focused and fun, their live shows are a blend of the sincerity of U2 meets the outrageousness of Foo Fighters. Punchy bass lines, gritty guitar riffs, amazing feats of vocal dexterity all held together with a driving beat is a strong signature to Pino Farina Band’s sound.
