Singer-songwriter acoustic duo Kristen Grainger and Dan Wetzel’s performances resonate deeply with audiences listening for well-crafted songs, skillful instrumentation, and beautiful vocals. The duo’s onstage chemistry sparks and smokes as they bring to life their songs about the extraordinary moments in ordinary life, opening and warming hearts wherever they go.
Herencia Mexicana Folklorico Dance
Herencia Mexicana is a group of local dancers who are passionate to preserve exactly what the name stands for: Mexican heritage. Our traditions are a gift that we want to pass on to future generations and share it with our Oregon Coast community. In Ballet Folklorico, each state from Mexico is represented by a customary dance with its traditional garments and music. We will be presenting “La Danza de los Viejitos” from Michoacan, “Santa Rita” – a Mexican polka from Chihuahua, “Sones Jaliscienses” from the state of Jalisco, and “Sones Jarochos” from the state of Veracruz.
We invite you to come and enjoy our collective heritage!

DJ Bloom
Silent disco is a unique way of experiencing music. Guests wear wireless headphones and a silent atmosphere instantly transforms into a high energy musical performance with three DJ spinning for your enjoyment!
Imagine walking through a crowd of dancing people and not hearing a single song. When you arrive you’ll receive a pair of special wireless headphones (no charge for the headphones – but we’ll ask you to leave your photo ID as collateral while you have the headphones). You can adjust the volume and choose between up to three DJ’s with a flip of a switch. Each headset has a color LED that shows what channel you are listening to. It’s super social; you’re in control of the music. There’s no loud music that you have to talk over. Plus, there’s no ringing in your ears when you leave! Once your headset is on you are immediately immersed into the world of SILENT DISCO!
(Headset rental is free and only requires a photo ID to hold while the headphones are in use)
