Midnight Ukulele Society

Midnight Ukulele Society

The Midnight Ukulele Society (MUS) is a Richmond based group of teachers and members of the community that sing and play pop/rock hits that everyone knows -- on ukulele, bass, and percussion. MUS runs a 501(c)(3) non profit with a mission to enrich the local community through the ukulele -- they run the annual statewide ukulele festival (Virginia Ukapalooza 2023), teach free ukulele classes at a Richmond area school, and donate ukuleles to area schools.




Dogwood Brothers

Dogwood Brothers

Americana Originals and Classic Country covers from Richmond, VA




The Tasty Specials

The Tasty Specials

The Tasty Specials Band is an eclectic mix of musicians that are well versed in the annals of Americana. A newcomer to a Tasty Specials Band show can expect a nice mix of originals, paired well with some of your favorite songs from the past 75 years. Adding extra garnish to this Tasty plate of tunage, is the exceptional harmonies provided by Leslie Fogg, Thom Somerville, Solomon Miles, and David Somerville. No tasty plate of tunes can go without the meat and bones of the band! To round out the sound you can find David Somerville on Saxophone and Keyboard, Thom Somerville on guitar, Nik Rohr on the drum set, and Ron Knobler on Bass. Your palate will be satisfied with this fantastic night of tunes. The original songs are mainly written by Thom and David, as well as a Songwriting team called SomerLand. These songs have a heavy base in Blues, Jam, Reggae, with a sprinkle of New Orleans, and have taken on a flavor of their own.




The Embalmers

Yes Now IS

Yes Now IS

Music is an incredibly powerful source for positive change. Yes Now IS is a musical venture of life that Amy and Jason united together and embarked upon many moons ago. It is conceived from the seed of being present and mindful of the moment of Now. Yes Now IS is all about spreading love, positivity and awareness to all those that we are connected to within this human experience. As well as the Universal Love songs, Yes Now IS brings to the table a cornucopia of delight. With a collection of meticulously chosen covers and delectable originals, Yes Now IS brings the fun to their variety show! Along with their enchanting performance, Yes Now IS is not afraid to toss in a bit of risque humor (wink).



Zack Salsberry

Zack Salsberry

Somewhere near the intersection of folk, jazz, and funk exists the music of Zack Salsberry- from sing-along radio classics to wry original tunes pushing the boundaries of well-established styles, there is always something unique to be heard during live performances!




Haze & Dacey Luckystrike

Haze & Dacey

Based in Richmond, Virginia, Haze & Dacey revel in lilting melodies, tight harmonies, and compelling rhythms that make toes tap and bodies sway. Original songs written by Haze are interspersed amongst covers both familiar and obscure. The duo skips nimbly from folk-pop to alt-country to roots-rock, creating a homegrown organic sound with upright bass, acoustic guitar, piano, shaker, tambourine, and mouth-horn. They cover artists as varied as Joni Mitchell, Queen, Patty Griffin, Guster, The Wiyos, and The Decemberists.
