At 10 a.m., Fredonia singer/songwriter Doug Osborne-Coy is driven by a love of rock ‘n’ roll at its pure, simple form. His guitar-based sound taps into a bloodline that began with Chuck Berry, filtered through The Stones and super charged AC/DC. A couple chords, some observations of life and a good beat make up his songwriting recipe.

At 11 a.m., Fredonia Ukulele Band with Christina Carissimo. These talented stringed instrumentalists provide a collection of traditional and modern music, both instrumental and vocals.

12 p.m.: 42 Eagle is a five-piece Emo/Alternative band that began in Fredonia. It was originally started by Jake Supovitz and Chris Egan with Pat Hart. Later the band has evolved and added in drummer Corwin Sears, and a bassist Dan Calderone.”

1 p.m.: Soul’r Inc.

2 p.m.: Cheap Peach. Four classically trained musicians from Buffalo State and SUNY Fredonia composing rock and punk influenced music. The band is largely inspired by modern rock groups like Cloud Nothings and Meat Wave; Jeff Rosenstock. Cheap Peach is full of musical treats and surprises. Enjoy the show!

3 p.m.: Rik Napoli has been performing original pop music since 1986. His music has been featured on the Fox and ABC television networks. Having performed from the Hard Rock Cafe in Niagara Falls to the Bitter End in NYC, Rik is looking forward to this hometown show.

4 p.m.: Boplin Goblin, a group of seven music education major sophomores from SUNY Fredonia. We play jazz and hits with a horn section of a trumpet, trombone, clarinet, and saxs. We are super excited to have the opportunity to play here, hope you enjoy!

The evening’s big show features another fine talent with Fredonia roots. Ruthie Collins is coming from Nashville with her five-piece band to perform for her hometown crowds. Ruthie’s career is moving upwards, and more and more people are taking notice of her. Country Music Television named Ruthie as one of 2017’s “Next Women of Country”; just this summer Ruthie has had the opportunity to open shows for one of country music’s icons, Reba McEntire. Pennsylvania’s Coston Cross will be opening the show at 7 p.m. Coston blends traditional country sounds with life experiences, bringing cowboy music to the forefront. His goal is to “deliver a song for everyone.”
