TEXAS ARTS & MUSIC FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES 2024 ENTERTAINMENT

  

The Texas Arts and Music Festival has announced who will be taking the stage during its ninth annual event this fall.

Four musical guests will perform on the Saturday of the festival, which runs October 18-20 in downtown Brenham and will feature an art village, pop-up art galleries and two new public art mural installations.

The music begins with Brazos Valley’s own Kane Alvarado, who will open with a rock and blues set from 2 to 3:30 p.m.

Willow Creek Junction will follow from 4 to 5:30 p.m.  Based out of Magnolia, the band offers a balanced repertoire of original compositions and cover renditions embodying the essence of Texas Country.

Next will be the Americana and Indie Rock musical stylings of Susto from 6 to 7:30 p.m.  Originally from South Carolina, he now lives in Austin, and his music reflects his new southwest style.

This year’s headliner will be Jomo and the Possum Posse, playing from 8 to 9:30 p.m.  Self-described as “The Greatest Band in the World.  Possibly Ever”, the group combines a unique style of original music with comedy and honky-tonk. 

For the first time, the festival will host a juried art show alongside the expected slate of activities.  The show is eligible for any artist to enter and will be open during festival operating hours on Saturday and Sunday, with an added invite-only opening Friday evening.

More performing artists and this year’s mural artist will be announced at a later time. 

Each year, the free festival raises funding for area high school art and choir programs while providing an event for art and music lovers to enjoy.
