Dream Machines Announces Impressive Music Lineup

With the uniquely beautiful backdrop of the world’s coolest motoring machines, some of the biggest names on the Bay Area music scene are heading down to Half Moon Bay Airport for the Pacific Coast Dream Machines Show on Sunday, April 26.

Kicking things off is The Andy Santana Band. The gifted Santana is a dynamic vocalist and world class harmonica player as well as a proficient guitarist and song writer. With decades of professional experience and shows on his resume, he has legions of fans and consistently delivers memorable live performances. Andy heads a group of talented musicians that includes the incredible Rusty Zinn on guitar. Zinn’s guitar playing and singing with deep feeling for the blues have earned him gigs and recordings over the years with many blues masters, including Jimmy Rogers, Snooky Pryor, Luther Tucker, James Cotton, Mark Hummel and Kim Wilson.

Belfast’s Kevin Brennan fronts his popular band Wavelength in a tribute to his old Belfast buddy, Van Morrison. Wavelength is comprised of very talented musicians whose craft is fine tuned to the rich and wide spectrum of Van’s music. From early days of Brown Eyed Girl through Beautiful Vision to Haunts of Ancient Peace, Wavelength captures Mr. Morrison’s sound “Vantastically.” The top notch line up includes Grant Walters on harps/vocals, Gary McArthur on sax/flute, Rob Christian on bass, Pelham Houchin on lead guitar, Erik Nielsen on drums, and some very special guests.

In tribute to the genius of Ray Charles, a swinging sextet of outstanding Bay Area musicians formed The Ray Charles Project to offer their take on some of the highlights from Ray’s amazing songbook. The band is a meeting of elite jazz and blues musicians including 11-time GRAMMY® Award winner and Santana vocalist Tony Lindsay, noted Bay Area guitarist Chris Cain and soulful vocalist Glenn Walters. A talent-packed rhythm section will back them, including Hammond B-3 player Dave Mathews, bassist DeWayne Pate and drummer Deszon Claiborne.

“We’ve put together a great music lineup that will rival the quality of the world-class machines on display,” said entertainment director Grant Walters, a longtime supporter of the event beneficiary, the Coastside Adult Day Health Center.

In keeping with a long-standing Dream Machines tradition, festivalgoers can expect to see special surprise guests take the stage thoughout the day.
