In the spirit of safely enjoying the medicinal magic of the live music experience, Joshua Tree Music Festival is thrilled to host a series of outdoor shows this spring.

These one-night shows will be intimate, assigned seating, physically distant and limited in capacity to adhere to California’s Blueprint for a Safer Economy Tier 2 Guidelines for Outdoor Live Performances. More event info can be found at joshuatreemusicfestival.com .

Con Brio
Aptly named for the Italian musical direction meaning ‘With Spirit’; these cats are spirited. Their debut on the Boogaloo stage at the Joshua Tree Music Festival back in May 2016 was electrifying. To say the joint was jumping would be an understatement. They performed here again in May 2018. The Bay Area band plays energetic soul, psych-rock and R&B that’s as fresh and freethinking as the place they call home. Lead singer Ziek McCarter is dripping with charisma, bringing “the dance moves, splits and all, of James Brown” (KQED). The tight, veteran band that “comes across like a party punk version of Sly and the Family Stone” (Consequence of Sound), Con Brio have converted International audiences, and major festival music lovers at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands and Austin City Limits. Says McCarter “we keep doing what we do; creating magical moments of love and liberation, everywhere we go.”
