MUSICAL ACTS

No Soap Radio

Hailing from Portland, OR, No Soap Radio is the home of "Headbanger Jazz"—a fierce cocktail of metal intensity, deep funk grooves, jazz complexity, and hip-hop swagger. From sharing festival stages and selling out local rooms with Grammy-winners Rebirth Brass Band, to having their music featured nationally by DCI’s Spirit of Atlanta, they deliver a dance-heavy, exhilarating live show designed to get the entire room moving. With two self-produced albums under their belt, they are currently in the studio tracking their highly anticipated third record.

Scott Pemberton o Theory

One thing is clear when you hear SPOT. This is something new. Rooted in the familiar yet utterly unique, this nimble Power Trio creates their own brand of progressive roots music, blending deep jazz, blues, rock/grunge, funk, and psychedelia—often during the same song. Driven by Scott's wildly unorthodox approach to the guitar, improvisation, and songwriting, every concert is an entirely fresh experience. Playing festivals, theaters, taverns, and nightclubs from coast to coast, they prove during every performance their dedication to the fact that making music is an honor and a gift.

Kids Activation presented with Mid-Columbia Children's Museum

Party at the Point will feature a dedicated family activation area presented in partnership with Mid-Columbia Children’s Museum, designed to provide interactive experiences and activities for children and families throughout the evening.
