7:00 pm | Molly Brandt

Music has always been a core part of Molly Brandt's existence. Brandt strives to tell her real-life stories and fictional fables to her audience with a personable experience. Brandt has also inherited Dolly Parton’s knack for painting unvarnished pictures of poverty and struggle but performing them with glitz, style, and attitude. She dazzles when she takes the stage, first with her presence and statement outfits—inspired by designer Nudie as well as divas Nikki Lane and Margo Price.

8:00 pm | Nat Myers

Nat Myers, the Korean-American blues poet, embodies the essence of itinerancy, infusing his music with the restless spirit of constant exploration. His debut album, "Yellow Peril," pulsates with jumpy blues tracks narrating train-hopping adventures and the allure of the open road. From Kansas to New York City, Myers’ journey has been marked by an insatiable curiosity, shaped by his love for poetry and the blues. While COVID-19 halted his street performances, it also led to a serendipitous encounter with Dan Auerbach, culminating in a collaboration that birthed a dozen vibrant songs. "Yellow Peril" isn't just an album; it's a testament to Myers’ journey of self-discovery as a Korean American, intertwining themes of identity, heritage, and resilience.
