Waylon Nihipali
Country Music artist, Waylon Nihipali is a rising success in the Country Music world. Born and raised on the Big Island of Hawaii, Waylon was introduced to Country Music at a very young age due to his parents passion for Country Music. Hence, the reason he was named Waylon! Named after the Legendary Waylon Jennings, we presume he was destined to end up as a Country Artist. Waylon wrote his first song while in the Air Force. Doing a TDY in South Korea. Waylon and some buddies played music in a warehouse on base where he wrote the song “ He’s Her Life “ which was later to be released in 2022, and went viral on YouTube and TikTok multiple times. Backing up alittle to Waylon’s first single, he released his debut single “ In Another Man’s Truck” which was his first success in 2020. “In Another Man’s Truck” hit a whopping 1 million views in approximately 6 months on YouTube. That’s a big deal for a new artist. In 2021, Waylon made the ultimate decision to pack up and move to Nashville, TN where he went on to record more music. He recorded He’s Her Life which was a big success for him. He also released “Thataway” which is a big talk today. Waylon’s latest release was award winning “ I Fish “ written by the talented Brenda Cay. That song was pitched to Waylon and turned out fantastic. Waylon’s next release “Living For Me” comes out March 17th, 2023. Waylon’s connection to the Military and Country Music has landed him a spot on stage playing at the first Annual Walla Walla Music Festival come June 04, 2023. This event is is dedicated to all the Military Veterans and that, Waylon is super exited and honored to be a part of as he is a US Veteran,himself.

CASH'D OUT
Cash’d Out so rightously carries the torch of the Johnny Cash Show. Music critics have anointed Cash’d Out as "the next best thing to Johnny Cash”.
W.S. Holland, Johnny Cash’s longtime drummer, has sat in with Cash’d Out;  front man, Douglas Benson, has played Johnny’s cherry sunburst Guild guitar (courtesy of Mr. Miller);  “Cindy Cash came to a show and was moved to give me a glass locket that was her father’s,” explains Benson;  Longtime Johnny Cash manager Lou Robin has also been to several Cash’d Out shows and claimed that if he closed his eyes it was as if “going back in time.”;  And most recently, an unforgettable evening performing the music of Johnny Cash with the San Diego Symphony as a special event for their Summer Pops Series.
The band’s live shows respectfully reference the late, great Man in Black's Sun Records and early Columbia era sound, combined with the energy of the classic multi-platinum live recordings from Folsom Prison and San Quentin. The group's genuine love (and authentic recreation) of Johnny Cash’s music and its universal appeal fans of all ages and of virtually all musical genres makes each Cash’d Out show a must-see event.
CALE MOON
Cale the son of a long-haul truck driver, has been entertaining all across the US, from the biggest cities to the smallest country towns. A prolific song writer, Cale recorded his first studio album “The
Beginning” in 2011. Within 2 weeks of its debut, he started receiving calls from Nashville, leading to the recording of Cale’s second album “True Love Waits”, at the legendary Treasure Isle Studios. With the overwhelming response to “True Love Waits” prompted Cale and family to sell everything, buy a tour bus, and take his music on the road full-time and he has been touring and preforming at fairs, concerts, and festivals ever since. Cale has the amazing ability to draw people in and keep them smiling and having fun! Freemont county fair to say he went above and beyond our expectations would be an understatement. Not only did he put on fantastic shows each night, and he had people up out of their seats dancing and having a good time, Blaine County fair.
