Who’s Coming?
It’ll be a night filled with live music, poetry, film, performances & more, hosted by Seva Co-Founder Dr. Larry Brilliant. Here’s a sneak peek of what’s to come!
Steve Earle
With over 20 studio albums to date, multi-Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Steve Earle will be joining us to celebrate Wavy with a special performance. If we’re lucky he’ll play some of his hits like “Copperhead Road”, “Galway Girl”, “Guitar Town” and some of Wavy’s favorites!
David Nelson, Pete Sears, Barry Sless
David Nelson (New Riders of the Purple Sage), Pete Sears (Jefferson Starship and Hot Tuna), and Barry Sless (Bob Weir and Wolf Bros.) have been recording and performing around the country since 1994. Each show is a magical adventure for these legends and their audience alike.
Maria Muldaur
Best known world-wide for her 1973 mega-hit “Midnight at the Oasis”, receiving several Grammy nominations, Maria Muldaur’s career could best be described as a long and adventurous odyssey through the various forms of American Roots Music.
Helen Wicks Works
Helen Wicks Works combines dance and socio-political perspectives in circus-informed aerial performance. Helen sees performance as society’s medicine and aims to spark individuals’ imagination, collective envisioning, and spiritual relief. She is also a proud Camp Winnarainbow alum.
Just to name a few!
Run, don’t walk to grab your ticket – it’s going to be a memorable night you won’t want to miss celebrating our favorite clown.
