Headlining Act: Feverdreams
Born off the back of a COVID 19-induced dissolution of their former band, The States, and the isolation of the lockdown, Joshua Jacobs and Matthew Weisberg started dreaming up what would be next for their musical endeavors. Two ideas emerged: forming of a new musical project they called Feverdreams and an in-home recording studio, Kindred House Studio.
After working musically together for the better part of a decade, Weisberg and Jacobs had a type of secret language only they could understand. They began writing and producing their own songs, seeking a more blue-collar, “DIY” approach than previously done. They released their first single, “Wildfire”, a roots-driven rock song pushing them into the subgenre of heartland rock.
They’ve now gone back into Jacobs’ home studio with a full lineup that includes Taylor Michel on keys, Jesse Coleman on drums, and Cam Bowland on bass to start work on their debut album, “Some Great Unknown.”
Opening Act: Jenna Clark
Born and raised in Ocala, FL, Jenna developed a love for music from a young age. Growing up, her father sang and played in a three piece acoustic band, her grandmother played piano, and her siblings all played guitar. First placing hands on a guitar at age 11, she took weekly lessons from Nolan Drudge for a decade before making her way west to Texas.
Arriving in the Dallas blues scene in Deep Ellum in 2012, she saw her guitar studies in action and began to invest time in the local music. Eyes to fretboards every night for months, she learned more and began to join local open mics and blues jams, eventually landing her into paid opportunities and more exposure to local songwriters.
Following a decade in north Texas, with a pull back to her roots and to learn more from Nolan Drudge, she returned to her hometown of Ocala in 2023 where she is now studying music theory through new instruments: electric bass & piano as well as writing new songs.
