​Jam Pak Blues ‘N Grass
Youth Blues and Bluegrass
Performing Saturday and Sunday 10 AM - 11 AM


​With twenty-eight years performing and teaching in the bluegrass world of Arizona, many folks know the story of Jam Pak. Somehow, some way, enfolded in the love of music, community, food, travel, and love itself, this unique band of all ages, races, and walks of life makes bluegrass music. In the home of Anni Beach of Chandler, they teach each other, gather twice a week, practice, dance, entertain, and at the center, maintain the singular goal to make themselves and others happy with their music. The band is ever grateful for the wonderful venues, the donations of instruments and other needs, and the constant encouragement from the bluegrass community of Arizona. Learn more about this group at www.jampak.org.

Zach Farley & Friends
World / Folk
Performing Saturday 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM

When Patagonia musician and instrument maker Zach Farley was 8 years-old, one event changed the course of his life. He took up guitar at a young age, that helped to fill the void in his life. Decades later, he's a musician, artist and craftsman making flutes, drums and guitars from gourds harvested in the field. “From seed to song,” he says. Learn more about this group here.

Bessett and Callahan
Alt-Country
Performing Saturday 1PM - 3PM
​
Bessett and Callahan are an electric alt-country duo from Tucson, Arizona. A one two punch of haunting vocals and sun faded, fuzzed out electric guitar—Jillian Bessett and Chris Callahan perform lilting western ballads and hook heavy anthems with rock and roll sensibilities.

Mr. Boogie Woogie
Classic R&B
Performing Sunday 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM

Hard drivin’, old school Rhythm & Blues, complemented by some killer Boogie Woogie, by the fastest, flashiest, piano-thumping boogie man from the Netherlands. Yes, that’s right. This Dutch based, drive by piano player hits hard and will take no prisoners! As soon as he starts pounding the ivories, you’ll be on your way to the Land of Good Times.

SKY ISLANDS FALL ARTISAN MARKET

Over 30 years ago, the Town of Patagonia held its first fall festival to showcase extraordinary talent and artistry against the beautiful backdrop of their community, nestled at over 4000 feet in the mountains of Southeast Arizona. The festival attracts more than 15,000 visitors to Patagonia’s lovely tree-shaded park in the center of town over a festive weekend, presented by the Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance in partnership with the Sky Island Tourism Association.
