From the land of Portland, Sallie Ford & The Sound Outside brought some fresh, bluesy jams to the table to open the night. With a voice as smooth as butter, Ford crooned about lost love and troubles in ways

a certain toe-headed country singer never could.

In support of their newest release, We The Common, Thao & The Get Down Stay Down put on an energetic performance that was anything but common. Armed with a myriad of string instruments (including banjo, mandolin, and slide

guitar), Nguyen captivated the crowd with her shimmies and shakes.
