In its sixth year the Sunriver Art Faire announce its exciting entertainment lineup playing throughout the weekend of August 7-9. While checking out all the juried fine artists’ booths, you’ll be entertained by some of Central Oregon’s best musicians. Enjoy the background music or take a moment to sit in the shade and listen to one of these great bands.

The Art Faire welcomes back the popular Bill Keale with his smooth Hawaiian sound, bluegrass bands CinderBlue, Burnin’ Moonlight and Rusty Rayles & the Rounders, acoustic rock favorites The Tom & Heather Duo, jazz in all forms from the Summit Express Jazz Band, Two/Thirds Trio and The Notables. These acts in themselves are a full slate of great music. And, of course, performing on Saturday evening swingin’ and rockin’ dance music with The Klassixs Ayre Band.

Including some newcomers to the Sunriver Women’s Club Art Faire lineup Sweet Red, a newly formed band of experienced performers from Bend, features dynamite vocals and rousing rock-a-billy renditions of early rock n’ roll hits. The Rock Hounds kept the crowd dancing at a recent Sunriver potluck with their repertoire reminiscent of the Eagles.

Franchot Tone’s music is described as “…heaps of warm guitar strum, breezy melodies and easygoing vibe,” and “…sun-baked, reggae-flavored pop-rock.” Franchot’s music video for Everything’s Fine has over 100,000 views on YouTube and 923,296 on Vevo and can be viewed on his website  www.franchottone.com.

All this great Entertainment along with 65 juried artist booths, an art activity center for kids, and more, can be found throughout the long weekend in the Village at Sunriver. www.sunriverartfaire.com
