Kristyn Harris is known for her western swing spin on original and classic songs of the western and rural lifestyle. She is recognized for her powerful voice, swing rhythm guitar chops, songwriting, yodeling, and energetic stage presence, as well as the passion and authenticity that she puts into each performance.

The Cowboy Way is a trio of award-winning musicians from New Mexico consisting of Mariam Funke, Doug Figgs, and Jim Jones. Their lively shows feature tight harmonies, high energy and smokin’ instrumentals. These prolific songwriters take you on the ride of a lifetime as they honor traditional cowboy songs, then bowl you over with their dynamic contemporary original Western tunes. They have been named Western Group of the Year four times by the International Western Music Association.

Gary Allegretto is an International Western Music Association Performer of the Year. Not only is Gary the best harmonica player you will likely ever hear, he is a remarkable singer, songwriter, guitarist and a masterful entertainer. His songs have reached the #1 spot on the Western Music radio charts and his music is featured in major motion picture soundtracks. Gary’s engaging songs draw from his diverse life experience (including ranch hand, forest firefighter as a USFS Hotshot, and bouncer in a couple of rough honky-tonks).
