About the Artist
From Boulder to Valencia, back to Boulder. Francis has come to spread his
message of forgiveness, faith and share his journey in life. He is now attending Berklee College of Music as a vocalist. He performed in the first annual student Lago de Conciertos in the fall semester, playing his song The Man in Black II. He is now seeking an opportunity to spread his message even further to an audience that will have him.
Similar to the classic styles of Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, Wolfla is, at his core, a country singer. However, elements of Grunge and Metal are found throughout his music, especially on his most recent album, “Last Dance in the West,” with downtuning and harmonies reminiscent of Alice in Chains. His recent song “The Man Approaches” has a truly grand sense with stacked vocals and a wide sound. The chorus is truly something to behold.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/155231/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

The Jayhawks: 40th Anniversary! Over the course of 4 decades and countless memorable live shows, The Jayhawks have soared to heights few ever achieve while winning the hearts and minds of numerous critics, fans and peers in the process. Since 2014 The Jayhawks have enjoyed a career resurgence, touring constantly and releasing 3 memorable albums – including Paging Mr. Proust, a true classic co-produced by Peter Buck – while collaborating with the likes of Ray Davies and Wesley Stace. In early 2025 the band announced the that work had begun on their 12th studio album, slated to come out in 2026, which will be the 40th anniversary of the release of their first album. 2026 has officially been designated as “The Year Of The Hawk.”

James McMurtry released The Black Dog and the Wandering Boy on June 20th via New West Records. The 10-song collection was co-produced by McMurtry &amp; Don Dixon (R.E.M., The Smithereens) and is his first album in four years. It follows his 2021 acclaimed new West debut, The Horses and the Hounds, which UnCut Magazine said “lifts storytelling-in-song to meticulous new levels" and Pitchfork awarded an 8.0, saying “James McMurtry stands out even among the Lone Star State’s finest songwriters…” The Black Dog and the Wandering Boy features appearances by Sarah Jarosz, Charlie Sexton, Bonnie Whitmore, Bukka Allen and more, alongside his trusted backing band, THE MARTIAL LAW REVIEW, Tim Holt on guitar and accordion, Cornbread on bass and Daren Hess on drums.
As varied as they are, McMurtry’s new story-songs find inspiration in scraps from his family’s past: a rough pencil sketch by Ken Kesey that serves as the album cover, the hallucinations experienced by his father, the legendary writer Larry McMurtry, an old poem by a family friend. A supremely insightful and inventive storyteller, McMurtry teases vivid worlds out of small details, setting them to arrangements that have elements of Americana but sound too sly and smart for such a general category. Funny and sad often in the same breath, The Black Dog and the Wandering Boy adds a new chapter to a long career that has young songwriters like Sarah Jarosz and Jason Isbell cite him as a formative influence.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/148148/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

Now in the seventh decade of his professional life, Herbie Hancock remains where he has always been: at the forefront of world culture, technology, business and music. Herbie Hancock has been an integral part of every popular music movement since the 1960's. As a member of the Miles Davis Quintet that pioneered a groundbreaking sound in jazz, he also developed new approaches on his own recordings, followed by his work in the 70s -- with record-breaking albums such as "Headhunters" -- that combined electric jazz with funk and rock in an innovative style that continues to influence contemporary music. "Rockit" and "Future Shock" marked Hancock's foray into electronic dance sounds; during the same period he also continued to work in an acoustic setting with V.S.O.P.
Hancock received an Academy Award for his Round Midnight film score and 14 Grammy Awards, including Album Of The Year for "River: The Joni Letters," and two 2011 Grammy Awards for the globally collaborative CD, "The Imagine Project."
Hancock serves as Creative Chair for Jazz for the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association and as Institute Chairman of the Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz. In 2011 Hancock was named a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador, and in December of 2013, received a Kennedy Center Honor. His memoir, Herbie Hancock: Possibilities, was published by Viking in 2014, and in February 2016 he was awarded the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.Happens on the following Dates: Aug 11, 2026, 7:30pm to 10:30pm Timezone: Mountain Time (US &amp; Canada) Aug 12, 2026, 7:30pm to 10:30pm Timezone: Mountain Time (US &amp; Canada)<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/138720/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>
