“Nancy Elliott’s music speaks the truth and the beauty of the American West” Jon Messenger, President, Western Music Association
Beautiful Holiday songs and stories from the Southwest’s Nancy Elliott who writes “songs inspired by real life and soaked through with color and passion,” then delivers them completely, no holds barred. Nancy’s feeling for Southwestern Culture gets displayed in each concert she performs.
The Gurley Girls are a unique band of Prescott hometown “Gurls”. Their diverse style has been referred to as “versatile femme-folk pop rock” and encompasses multiple genres and generations. The Gurley Girls have recently released first studio album, “Workin’ for a Livin'”, recorded and produced right here in the heart of Prescott.
Tom and Christa Agostino hosted the Folk Sessions 12 Days of Christmas concert in 2015 and have been performing throughout Arizona opening for artists like Tom Chapin, Carrie Rodriguez, The Wild Reeds and Monica Rizzio. The Folk Sessions’ host, Tom Agostino has been called “The Godfather of Folk” by Prescott’s The Daily Courier and was the 2013 Bucky Award winner for Media in Prescott.
Folka Polka is known for trying to set the record for how much fun you can have listening to music. Tom’s guitar and Al’s accordion will support an original style that gives life to Holiday classics that have been known to lead to outbreaks of out of control foot tapping.
