The real thing, people, a star with potential to permanently affect the musical landscape and keep us entertained for years to come. -Billboard

The best live performer I’ve ever seen. I may just quit my job and go follow Martin and make a fuss everywhere I go, just to make sure that people don’t go their lives without hearing this man sing to them. -John Mayer

Martin Sexton returns with what Rolling Stone calls his "soul-marinated voice," acoustic guitar, and a suitcase full of heartfelt songs.

The winter tour begins with an extensive run through Europe then takes Martin across North America trying out new material as well as reinventing his own classics for these critically-acclaimed solo performances.

Still fiercely independent and headlining venues from The Fillmore to Carnegie Hall, he has influenced a generation of contemporary artists. His songs have appeared in television series such as Scrubs, Parenthood, Masters of Sex and in numerous films, though it’s his incendiary live show, honest lyrics, and vocal prowess that keep fans coming back for a new experience every time.

Keller Williams' Petty Grass featuring The HillBenders
Friday, November 8, 2019
Doors 6 p.m. | Show 7:30 p.m.
Tickets start at $18 (incl. fees)

This show is included in the full season package and half season package B.

Keller Williams has established a reputation as a creative force with his unmatched ability to collaborate and evolve in a career spanning more than 20 years. 'Petty Grass' finds him performing select Tom Petty covers in a rollicking bluegrass style alongside eclectic quintet The HillBenders.

Definition: Petty Grass is Bluegrass versions of Tom Petty hits. Sing-alongs that some people didn’t even know they knew. Tom Petty songs are like that and Petty Grass celebrates this.

There is nothing like a room full of people singing along to the same song. In 2015, I put together a set of Tom Petty songs to be done bluegrass at a benefit for my local S.P.C.A. I had so much fun putting the project together, it brought a wave of joy over me singing these songs. With his untimely passing, these songs have been pushed to the forefront of my mind and is seems like as good a time as any to celebrate, publicly, the hits of Tom Petty. Luckily, The HillBenders share my passion for this music and it just so happens that they are kick ass pickers who have amazing attention to detail, you can see for yourself as they cover the entire rock opera of The Who’s Tommy. These Petty songs lend themselves quite easily to bluegrass and by the end of the night, the audience will more than likely be singing in harmony. - Keller Williams

Nella, who has already garnered the support of Latin pop star Alejandro Sanz, has performed with a variety of artists such as Jennifer Lopez, Carlos Vives, Luis Enrique, and Susana Baca. More recently, Nella was asked to join the stellar cast of Academy Award Winner Asghar Farhadi’s new movie, Everybody Knows, featuring Javier Bardem, Ricardo Darín and Penélope Cruz, where she sings songs written by composer & producer, Javier Limón, exclusively for the screenplay. The movie opened the 2018 Cannes Film Festival.

With sold out shows in NYC, Miami, London, Caracas, and her hometown of Margarita, Venezuela, Nella sets out on her first US tour in 2019, including songs featured in Farhadi’s movie, as well as Venezuelan folk songs and some of her own compositions.

She is currently working on her first solo project comprised of music and production by Javier Limón – that has been signed by IMG/Casa Limón Records. Her album will be released in early 2019 and will be distributed worldwide through The Orchard.

Named after a haunting Bob Dylan song, Farewell Angelina is an all-female country group with four powerhouse vocalists, dynamic songwriters and accomplished multi-instrumentalists. Their stellar blend of heart-stopping harmonies over blazing double violins and guitars has earned soaring praise across the board. Roughstock calls them a "Superstar Act... with Killer Songs." Rolling Stone says, "Wickedly smart songwriting delivered with a healthy dash of sass... deft playing... into one sonic knockout punch."

A band of longtime friends, Nicole Witt, Andrea Young, Lisa Torres & Ashley Gearing all met pursuing their dreams in Nashville, TN. Each deeply respected and admired one another while they were building successful solo careers, touring and recording with top artists, and writing songs for some of Country Music's biggest hitmakers. When they heard the undeniable magic of their voices together for the first time, they couldn't wait to take their show on the road. Major opportunities soon followed including singing the National Anthem for Thursday Night Football, The Unbridled Eve Gala for the Kentucky Derby, the ACM All-Star Jam, and the Albisguetli Schutzenhaus Festival in Switzerland.

Farewell Angelina's chemistry lives in watching each other shine, and most of all, creating moments every night with the Country Music fans they love so much. The relationship they share with their fans won them the fan-voted "Hot Seat" spot of the Taste of Country 2017 "RISERS" Program by over 20,000 votes. They've also been named among Rolling Stone's "New Artists You Need To Know," and Roughstock's "Ones to Watch" with a tour schedule to prove it. The girls have opened shows for the likes of Kenny Chesney, Old Dominion, Frankie Ballard, Jake Owen, Billy Currington, Maroon 5, and Trace Adkins, to name a few. The girls joined the Bacon Brother’s (Kevin & Michael) as the opening act on many dates of their last two summer tours. They are currently headlining their own "Women & Wine" Tour to packed crowds across the US on the heels of their 2019 EP of the same name.

Coco Montoya

Between his white-hot guitar playing and his soulful, emotional vocals, Coco Montoya has talent to burn. In a career that spans almost four decades, he's gone from drumming for blues icon Albert Collins to holding the lead guitar spot in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers to leading his own band and touring worldwide. Montoya is revered for his ability to move from subtly melodic guitar playing to slash-and-burn pyrotechnics. Equally forceful are his deep, soul-baring vocals.

Colin James

With his 19th album, Miles to Go, Colin James is getting back to the blues. He is known as one of Canada’s best blues musicians, it wasn’t until 2016’s Blue Highways that James found himself on a blues chart: the album spent 10 weeks at No. 1 on the Roots Music Report’s Blues Chart.

Admiral Theatre Foundation 'Save The Mermaids' Campaign

Attending this concert will help save and preserve the Admiral Theatre’s iconic hand-painted murals of mermaids and undersea life. The Admiral Theatre is a 77-year-old concrete building which is under constant assault by salty sea air and wet weather. Despite constant maintenance, leaks and water damage have slowly seeped into our interior auditorium walls over the last 22 years since the murals were painted. In order to preserve the murals for future generations, the Admiral Theatre Foundation is raising $323,000 in 2019-2020 to paint and seal the theatre’s exterior, retouch the murals, and install a new photographic historical display in our mezzanine lobby. Your 100% tax-deductible contribution will help us ‘Save The Mermaids’ and preserve an important part of Kitsap’s arts and cultural heritage.
