About Alice Wallace:

When the world was forced to take a collective break in 2020, Alice Wallace had just made her big move to Nashville after spending much of her career in Orange County. She found herself in a brand new city and not able to leave the house, so she turned to the music of the artists she loved to get her through it.

Each Sunday, she would present a livestream in tribute to one of her heroines: Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt, Dolly Parton, Judy Collins, Nanci Griffith, and so many more. The concerts kept her connected to her fans, and kept her inspired and performing even when she wasn't able to step on a stage to perform, as she'd been doing for almost a decade.

Wallace, who was called "one of the most unheralded singers in independent country/Americana" by Saving Country Music, returns home to Southern California this Thanksgiving weekend to present a concert highlighting some of her favorite songs from the women who have inspired her career. She'll also share a sneak peek of the brand new songs she's preparing to go into the studio to record for her next album to follow 2019's Into the Blue, which received accolades from publications including Rolling Stone Country and was included as one of the Best Albums of 2019 by Americana Highways.

​Wallace, who won the 2017 Female Vocalist of the Year at the California Country Awards and the previous year’s Best Country/Americana Artist at the L.A. Music Critic Awards, was recently singled out by the Los Angeles Daily News and Pollstar for her “dead-on lovely version” of Ronstadt’s throbbing "Long Long Time” at the “Palomino Rides Again” event celebrating the legendary California honky-tonk.

Joining Alice for the night is Sara Petite!​

For the better part of two decades, San Diego's Sara Petite has blazed her own trail, carving out a mix of forward-thinking country, bluegrass, amplified folk, and Springsteen-sized rock & roll. It's a sound that blurs the boundaries between genres, created by a charismatic frontwoman who's never been afraid to buck trends or speak her mind. With Rare Bird, her sixth record, she widens her range once again, filling the album's tracklist with highway anthems, heartland rockers, lushly-layered Americana ballads, and even a gospel-influenced tribute to civil rights leader John Lewis.​

Wallace appears in concert at CAMPUS JAX in Newport Beach with a full dinner menu, bar and ample free parking. The club is near John Wayne airport and offers VIP seating and is open to all ages.

Imagine Texas in the 1950s, when Western Swing bands attracted dancers and music lovers to packed dance halls almost every night of the week.

In roadhouses and honky tonks all over the southwest, the best Western swing musicians were featured in bands large and small. They were the rock stars of the era.

This is the experience that awaits you in Long Beach in the historic art deco dance hall dubbed At The Top.

It's the best from out of the West - a Sunday matinee show Dec. 4 from 2-8 pm celebrating all things Western swing.

Deke Dickerson's all-star band, The Kings of Western Swing, headlines the dance festival. Deke's Ameripolitan-award winning musicianship alone is worth the price of admission.

His vintage band includes such luminaries as Carl Sonny Leyland on piano, Dave Berzansky on pedal steel, Gerard Egan on guitar, Lakshmi Ramirez on bass and Chris Sprague on drums - a real dream team of Western swing talent.

The Southwest Biscuit Company, led by co-producerJody Byrd, is a creative Western swing band making a big splash in Southern Calif. They are current nominees for the coveted 2023 Ameripolitan Western Swing band award. This 6-piece ensemble covers the classics, as well as mighty fine Western swing material they write and arrange themselves.

Then there are the Honky Tonk Angels - five talented female vocalists performing alone and in various formats throughout the afternoon: Dani Colace, Lil' Sue, Miss Mac, Mozzy Dee and Ukulena add their cowgirl vocals to the mix, fronting the house band formed by steel guitarist Jordan Bush.

As a special treat, Carolyn Sills opens the festivities with her 90th-birthday tribute to Patsy Cline, joined by Gerard Egan and backed by Jordan's house band. Her group, the Carolyn Sills Combo, hails from Santa Cruz, and have earned their own Ameripolitan Award for Western Swing band.

We will have a DJ for the afternoon spinning vintage Western swing with a little honky tonk and rockabilly to keep you out on the big dance floor.

Sample the Chuckwagon BBQ that features Texas Ribs, Pulled Pork and BBQ Chicken along with several side dishes and veggie treats. People are still raving about the food served at the previous Barndance Boogie. 

At The Top is at 105 W. Broadway upstairs on the corner of Pine & Broadway in downtown Long Beach.

Reserve seats at tables or just come and dance.

Free 2-hour parking at 51 E. 3rd st. just a block away.

MATT HILLYER from Texas' legendary Eleven Hundred Springs:
Over the course of 23 years the group played countless shows around the world, released over a dozen albums, and had become the standard for what a swingin' Texas country band should be. But for lead singer-songwriter Matt Hillyer, the ending of his beloved band, Eleven Hundred Springs, wasn't the closing of his own musical road.
His solo songs are hitting the right notes with fans everywhere. For Hillyer, his present and future isn’t defined by his past. He's more interested in bringing it all to the table now.

"To me they're all just songs I had a hand in creating, whether it's an Eleven Hundred Springs song or one of my solo songs," he says. "I'm really proud of them. Those songs have gone places and have taken me places. I'm also excited to see where the new music will take me, because I have no plans to stop doing this anytime soon."

Make your reservations now as this will sell out. Not a bad seat in the house.
