BroBBQ
The BroBBQ
A fundraiser for the Women Winemakers & Culinarians Foundation
At our first fundraiser, a delicious vegetarian Sunday Supper, a few of the Board members’ menfolk had a few comments about the lack of…carnivorous deliciousness. SO, we invited them to put their cooking skills where their mouths are, and…we are proud to announce “The BroBBQ”.
What: Barbecued everything- meats and veggies from the Bros, featuring sauces and spices from Anna Vocino’s Eat Happy Kitchen, dessert from the Bakery Farmstand, and wine from Future Perfect and Seagrape.
Our team of GrillMeisters are locally famous (so we're told!) for their barbecuing skills. Don Layton, Rafik Tadros, Nate "Tater" Stricker, Loren Tarnquinio, Mike Mesikip, Dan Dominguez, Ryan Layton and Randy Jones will be grilling sausages, elk tips, ribs, tri-tip, tofu (!), brisket, lamb lollipops, artichokes, seasonal veggies and sides!

PCPA - Something's Rotten!
Join the Bottom Brothers on a riotous quest to outshine Shakespeare in this uproariously entertaining musical romp. Something Rotten blends sixteenth-century wit with twenty-first-century Broadway flair to prove that stardom requires kicking up your heels and staying true to yourself.
Embark on a riotous journey as two brothers, Nick and Nigel Bottom, aim to pen the world's first musical and just maybe outshine the Renaissance rockstar known as the bard. But along the way, the Bottom Brothers realize that stardom ultimately requires kicking up their heels and being true to thine own self. Something Rotten blends sixteenth-century Shakespearean wit with twenty-first-century Broadway flair in this uproariously entertaining romp. Created by Grammy Award-winning songwriter Wayne Kirkpatrick and screenwriters Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell, Something Rotten was hailed by Time Out New York as "the funniest musical comedy in at least 400 years," proving there’s “nothing’s as amazing as a musical.”
Book by Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell

Soul Majestic
Roots Reggae
Sun, Aug 24th, 2025 at 3:00 pm
Doors open at 2:30pm - Open seating
Originated on the sandy shores of California, Soul Majestic channels their sunny beach days and bonfire nights into their unique style of reggae music. Look beyond their laid-back vibe, and you’ll find they are ever pushing the boundaries of the genre with an edge that cuts through the smoky haze. Their music blends a deep commitment to roots reggae with a love of hip-hop, R&B/Soul, psychedelic rock, pop and folk music. It’s a new twist on familiar reggae sounds, with conscious, heartfelt, and socially relevant yet timeless messages. Their signature vocal sound features male and female singers trading melodies and soaring harmonies, laced with edgy, crowd hyping dancehall verses and memorable hooks. Epic lead guitar solos wail over a wide range of tight danceable beats, rock flourishes, and heavy-dub interludes that will captivate and move you to dance.

His career took a major step forward in 2022, when he joined Matt Maeson on a nationwide tour and collaborated with artists Paris Jackson and Sophie Holohan.

The Robert Cray Band - Solvang Theaterfest
Blues icon. Soul man. Rock and roller. Grammy-winner Robert Cray has spent five decades carving out a distinctive space in American music with his soulful voice, searing guitar work, and unmatched integrity.
Raised in Washington, Cray was inspired to pick up the guitar after seeing The Beatles on TV and watching Jimi Hendrix live. Since forming his first band in high school, he has gone on to sell millions of albums, win five Grammy Awards, be inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame, and receive the Americana Music Lifetime Achievement Award.
Cray’s legendary collaborations include work with John Lee Hooker, B.B. King, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Tina Turner, and the Rolling Stones. His 1986 breakthrough album, Strong Persuader, brought blues and soul to the MTV generation and launched him into international fame, gracing the cover of Rolling Stone and topping charts worldwide.
Over the years, Cray has continued to evolve. His recent albums—In My Soul, Robert Cray & Hi Rhythm, and That’s What I Heard—have been hailed among his best, blending deep Southern soul, funk, blues, and sharp songwriting with timeless relevance.
Now with 19 studio albums under his belt, Cray’s performances remain intense, heartfelt, and powerful. “All these years we have been fortunate to do what we love doing—playing the music we love,” says Cray. “I couldn’t ask for anything more.”

PCPA - Holmes and Watson
July 11 - 26
Join Dr. Watson in a twisty, tantalizing mystery as he navigates a deadly guessing game to uncover the truth behind three men claiming to be Sherlock Holmes, in Jeffery Hatcher's gripping adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle's original tale, Holmes and Watson.
Sherlock Holmes is dead. Or at least he is believed to be. The great detective went over the Reichenbach falls with his nemesis, Professor Moriarty. But his body was never found. Three years later, Sherlock’s best friend and sidekick, Dr. Watson, receives word that three men claiming to be Sherlock Holmes are being held in an asylum on a remote island. Watson makes his way to the island to disprove the imposters, but when he arrives nothing is as it seems, and identifying the real Sherlock turns into a deadly guessing game. In this gripping adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle’s original mystery, Jeffery Hatcher’s Holmes and Watson is a twisty, tantalizing mystery that keeps its characters and audience alike guessing until the final moments.

The SYV Wind Ensemble will be playing in the Solvang Park gazebo prior to the start of the big 4th of July Parade.
The parade will start one hour earlier than in the past – 10AM rather than 11AM -
and therefore, we will begin playing in the park at 9AM (or a few minutes earlier if we are all set and ready to go).
We will play until 10AM, or until the parade reaches the park.
We have A LOT of patriotic music to present so we will try to get most of it performed!
Bring a chair, a hat, and all your patriotic gear.
We hope that there will be a large audience pre-parade and look forward to playing for you all!
