The Music…

We are incredibly lucky to be joined by two deeply talented musicians – Artists whose songs don’t just entertain, but connect.

Ryan Montbleau

Ryan has built a loyal following with music that is soulful, honest, and human.  His lyrics often feel like conversations we’ve all had in our heads… And having him headline this afternoon means more than we can say.

Stefan Couture

Stefan is a local favorite with a powerful voice and a gentle presence, will be opening the afternoon with a set that blends heartfelt originals with thoughtful covers.  He’s the perfect fit to set the tone for the day.  

The Food
