Musician Schedule

9:00 - 11:00 AM
Color Green
Color Green is a Bluegrass/Gospel group based in the Hutchinson/Yoder, KS area, and have been together for about two years. The five members bring many years of musical history into the group. Although they’ve cut their teeth on Bluegrass & Gospel music, other genres have been added — because they’re too good to pass up! They have been playing locally at craft shows, churches, and about wherever anyone will listen!

11:30 AM - 1:30 PM
Justin Riggs
Justin is a singer-songwriter from Hutchinson, KS who plays original country and folk tunes. He has performed at the Reno County Farmer’s Market and Metropolitan Coffee as well as in various venues across the great Sunflower State. He released his debut album Hawk | Bison | Sun in February 2022.

2:00 - 4:00 PM
Ralph Brown Trio
Ralph Brown is a resident of Hutchinson, KS and has forever been addicted to music. At the age of 8, Ralph was greatly influenced from listening to Charlie Parker records.
