Okee Dokee Brothers

Okee Dokee Brothers

Date: Saturday & Sunday, August 10 & 11, 2019
Time: 4:00 p.m.
Location: Central Garden
Admission: Free; no reservation required.

As childhood friends growing up in Denver, Colorado, Joe Mailander and Justin Lansing were always exploring the outdoors. Whether it was rafting down their neighborhood creek or discovering hiking trails through the Rocky Mountains, Joe and Justin were born adventurers. Now, as the Grammy Award-winning Okee Dokee Brothers, they have put this passion for the outdoors at the heart of their Americana folk music.

Joe and Justin record and perform family music with a goal to inspire children and their parents to step outside and get creative. They believe this can motivate kids to gain greater respect for the natural world, their communities and themselves.

The five-time Parents’ Choice Award winners have garnered praise from the likes of NPR’s All Things Considered and USA Today, and have been called “two of family music’s best songwriters.”

Watch: Okee Dokee Brothers, “Blankets of Snow”

 

The Lucky Band

Date: Saturday & Sunday, August 17 & 18, 2019
Time: 4:00 p.m.
Location: Central Garden
Admission: Free; no reservation required.

The Lucky Band create indie music sounds that are rooted in their whimsical child-friendly imaginations, with smart, crafty lyrics, and irresistibly fresh pop beats. Formerly called Lucky Diaz and the Family Jam Band, Lucky Diaz and Alisha Gaddis have put out six acclaimed and award-winning records that offer a musical and topical range aimed at exploring all the wonder and joy of a young person’s life. Spanish and English language hits earned them several awards, including the 2013 Latin Grammy Award for Best Latin Children’s Album for their album ¡Fantastico!. Diaz and Gaddis are also the creators and stars of the Emmy Award winning children’s live-action TV show Lishy Lou and Lucky Too, which aired on PBS’ The Friday Zone. Now touring as The Lucky Band, their refreshingly retro Space Age look reflects the modern vintage sound of their just released record, Buenos Diaz. Each track offers a naturally Spanglish language mix, and the layered instrumentation features lively electric guitars, drums, and horns, as well as kazoos and toy pianos.
