Scott Yoder – Grunge-Glam
by Donation
Music: 7:00pm
Scott Yoder has been touring most of his life. Within his current project, starting in 2016 he has had 5 tours through North America & 3 in Europe.
Over the course of two LPs & half a dozen singles he has toured the world, espousing a more personal distillation of his song craft. Nearly always on the road, he has honed his live act with a crunching, yet sensitive backing band of similarly-inclined misfits. This glitter-folk balladeer, adorned in mascara & bell bottoms invites you to sway to his entrancing charm.
He has played domestic festivals like Capitol Hill Block Party, SXSW, Meltasia, Treefort & Lose Yr Mind Fest sharing the stage with the likes of Kevin Morby, A Place To Bury Strangers, Roky Erickson, Shannon & The Clams, Death Valley Girls, King Khan & BBQ Show and many more.
"Visually, he evokes the glam of T. Rex and “Aladdin Sane”-era David Bowie while being more on par musically with the brooding genius of Brian Wilson.” (Purehoney Magazine)
"a punch-drunk ode to cosmic love; one that you'll want to leave repeating on your turntable."  (KEXP)

Taylor Glasheen/ Stone & Sue
Two Performances
Country Roots/ Ragtime
by Donation
Music: 7:00pm
Taylor Glasheen recently released her debut album, 'Tip Me a Dollar' and has been playing all over the Southwest for the past two years. Her music has heavy influences from Hank Williams Sr. + Kitty Wells + Townes Van Zandt + John Prine.
“With Tip Me A Dollar, singer-songwriter Taylor Glasheen launches a career in earnest. As far as debut albums are concerned, the entire nine-track LP defines a kind of down-trodden, utterly heartbreaking take on old-school country and western. Give an extra spin to "Mogolion" — it may pick up the pace considerably, but Glasheen's heart-on-sleeve honesty remains front and center.”– Phoenix New Times
Stone & Sue , this Portland-based trio play the vernacular music of the 1920s and 1930s, as well as original songs. They are completely captivated by these old forgotten relics and strive to keep them alive by sharing them with the world in the most authentic way possible. 
Their style is influenced by a life-long interest in ragtime, blues and hillbilly music, and the history and people behind it. They play everything from Hillbilly, Portuguese and Mexican string band music to jazz, pop and swing.

Get Lit(erate) at the Zócalo 
Book Reading
In ‘The Lodge’ 6:00pm
Join us in an unveiling of our newest intimate space, ‘The Lodge’, with literary presentations by writer/musician Rafael Vigilantics, who excels at off-beat spoken word and art brut, and author M. John Fayhee, who will read from his newest book, “A Long Tangent: Musings by an old man and his young dog hiking every day for a year,” which is primarily set in the Gila.

Fayhee was the editor of the Mountain Gazette. A long-time contributor to High Country News, the Walking Magazine, USA Today, along with too many other magazines and newspapers to count.  Fayhee is the author of 10 books, including “Bottoms Up” and “Smoke Signals,” the latter of which was a Colorado Book Awards finalist. “A Long Tangent" explores the process of going from wide-eyed young man to crotchety old fart as he comes to terms with his mortality, with the fact that "There are many more trail miles behind me than there are ahead.”
More than that, though. This is the story of the bond between a man and his canine companion as it evolves through deep canyons, across bone-dry mesas in ninety-five degree heat and toward the cactus-covered mountains that rise above the desert lands of southwest New Mexico.

Two Performances
Americana Roots/ Country Americana

Hailing from the furthest reaches of Texas and now residing in Austin, Casper Allen details his experiences in the Texas songwriting tradition of his heroes Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt.

Diamonds has grabbed audiences with his passionate lyrics, evocative melodies, and honest emotion thanks to his soulful and genuine style. His music combines classic country components with contemporary sounds to produce a distinctive and alluring sound.
