Owlfest 12, twelfth year of this homegrown festival in the California hills, this year’s theme was “Music from TV and Movies”, and most bands honored that theme. Over twenty-five acts grace the Owlfest stages over a three-day event with camping, vendors, and activities. Owlfest 11 took place at the Blue Mountain Event Center up in Wilseyville, CA, and Taper Jim McLain was there to document several of the acts’ performances.

I was planning on posting something from Chris Eng’s cassettes today, but then I remembered that there is an organized walkout at 2pm today to protest current events. So today’s theme is “Rock Out while you Walk Out” with our Locals Only segment. Haha!
These comps were always so much fun and this one is more fun than most. SO many friends on here that I am not going to attempt to tag people. Great comp.
This is from Jay Knox’ collection- he is on the comp with The Ultravoilets! Thanks Jay for helping with this Locals Only idea.

It’s time for our local spotlight! This is the time about once a month when we post something that is out of print and/or not available online from a Sacramento/area musician. And… wow, this is really good. I enjoyed this one way more than I expected.
Since his releases in the 90s, Early has become a well- known blues musician with a blues show on siriusxm. Pretty amazing to reinvent oneself from doing this (which I love) to the blues (which I have not heard).
