Armando Silva & Alicia Viezcas, hip-hop dance
Giants & Pilgrims, Greeley folk indie band
Trash Cat, Greeley indie-pop trio
Jenna McClean, Greeley jazz artist
Julia Kirkwood, Fort Collins youth singer-songwriter
Hannah and the Cuddies, Greeley funk band
The Great Salmon Famine, Fort Collins/Greeley jam band

The event, hosted by 105.5 Colorado Sound’s Margot Chobanian, aims to raise money to benefit The Success Foundation for District 6.
Proceeds will go toward music education programs in the district, specifically toward buying new instruments.
Every $50 raise will purchase a new ukulele or keyboard for students, said Briana Harris, manager of The Burroughs, in an email.
