FallEQ 2016 Featured Band: Giants in the Oak Tree

Giants in the Oak Tree always brings a great crowd and a good vibe, I hate that word "vibe," but always positive and fun. This Ogden band has been playing live since the Mojo days, but are still young and an innovative folk-rock-indie band.

Ogden EQ 2015 Blues Explosion: Tony Holiday & Jordan Young

I fall short of words when describing these two. Two stellar, gritty dirty blues men who have been traveling the U.S. for years and showing the U.S. what Utah has to offer. They have played 100s of festivals, dive bars and every juke joint around.

And, as part of the Ogden FamDam and EQ events we LOVE them. They have been super supportive and always bring all of their heart and soul to the stage. O-Town crew has something special going on and they know it!

Tony Holiday

Tony rolls solo and plays with the Velvetones or sits in with many serious blues players.

JordanYoung and Candy's River House

Damn, this man. Sings blues like nobody's business and he brings the ladies to the stage like a moth to a flame. All components combine -  gravely blues singing, dirty blues guitar, a great band and Blondie-locks good looks - don't miss his performance.

Here he is on FB,

FallEQ 2015 Featured Band: Shaky Trade!

According to about 9 out of 10 festy go-ers this is one of their favorite bands. Shaky Trade band members have been playing together for nearly 12 years and bring to the stage some serious jammy funk, horn section included. You cannot help yourself from shuffling around your dance shoes when you hear them play.

I like this one since our cat is named Charlie and he cannot leave chicken alone, for the REAL story behind this song ask Billy Bommer.

Charlie! Leave that Chicken Alone!
