Headliner: The Ramona Duo

5 to 6 p.m.

Ramona Quimby Music was born in 2012 amongst friends Jeanetta Salyer (vocals), Chris Kearnes (sax), Chelsea Saddler (former guitar). Drawing upon cover songs that ranged from old favorites, to dance floor bangers, jazz ballads that can summon tears, current radio hits to dirty old fashioned rock and roll. They deliberated over a set list that was truly a stand alone and unlike something that could be replicated by any other band. In 2014 Jeanetta went into music as a career full time with Ramona Quimby, joined by Alberto Cebollero at the guitar and together began reshaping the brand and mission of Ramona Quimby from a local Florida band, to a nationally noted and accomplished musical force. After winning The Delta Grammy contest in 2016, the momentum clicked into place with the band embarking on a summer tour, and gaining national accolades while performing incredible venues. In early 2017 the band revamped as RAMONA with their new LP dropping last year on July 4th. Performing most often as a Duo or Trio, RAMONA has the capacity to play in full as up to an 8 piece soul band, complete with horn section. The Ramona Duo, with Jeanetta on vocal and Alberto on guitar will perform as Made in St. Augustine’s headlining act.

Clayton Bush

11-12

With the tender delivery of a young John Mayer and the lush guitar textures of Howie Day, Clayton Bush's inspired compositions grip the hearts and ears of his audience with an urgent honesty that is conspicuously missing from so much of pop music today. With dauntless enthusiasm he sings stories of love, loss, spirituality and the occasional wild night. If ever a musician enjoyed his craft more than Clayton, you'd be hard pressed to find them.

This emerging artist is energetic, fun and remains true to his craft of songwriting intertwined with passionate, heartfelt live performances. Backed by the release of his debut album "Spanish Satellites," Clayton has been carving out a name for himself on stages and street corners across the country with his soaring, heartfelt vocals and distinct guitar style, layered to life by his unmistakable and compelling use of live looping technology. This young artist has developed into a talent beyond his years and shows no signs of slowing down.
