Live Music by The Sidewinders with headliners Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers

Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers:

Formed from the ashes of the Refreshments, Dead Hot Workshop, and the Gin Blossoms, Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers emerged in 1999 as a Southwestern supergroup specializing in post-grunge, pop Americana. After the Refreshments disbanded, Clyne and drummer P.H. Naffah retreated to Tempe, Arizona, where the two composed a slew of new songs during a week-long excursion through the Sonoran Desert. Intimate shows at local bars followed, and the pair steadily pieced together a lineup of local veterans that would soon comprise Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers. By 1999, Clyne and Naffah were joined by ex-Gin Blossoms guitarist Scott Johnson, ex-Dead Hot Workshop guitarist Steve Larson, and bassist Danny White. That same year they released an independent song "Honky Tonk Union," which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's internet sales chart. After 11 albums and many national and international tours, Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers were inducted into the Arizona Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame on July 2, 2019.

The Sidewinders / Sand Rubies:

Originating from Tucson, Arizona, the Sidewinders came together in the mid-1980s, led by David Slutes and Rich Hopkins. Following a dispute with another band, the Sidewinders rebranded as The Sand Rubies. Their music blends jangly and gleaming guitars into a unique sound they call "Desert Rock." The band's sound is influenced by Soul Asylum, Tom Petty, Neil Young, and Arthur Lee-era Love. More than 30 years after the release of their breakout album "Witch Doctor," the band continues to delight audiences with their signature sound.
