7/17/24 – Miss CMSF Scholarship Pageant (6:00 pm): Come see the talented local

contestants and find out who is crowned Miss CMSF 2024.

7/18/24 - Legends in Concert Tribute to Elton John: Prepare to be mesmerized by Kenny

Metcalf’s sensational portrayal of Elton. Metcalf delivers an enchanting performance, capturing

the magic of Elton John’s greatest hits, including “Benny and the Jets,” “Rocket Man,” and

“Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.”

7/19/24 – High Voltage – A Tribute to AC/DC: High Voltage has a well-deserved reputation as

the premier high energy, authentic AC/DC tribute act.

7/20/24 – Umphrey's McGee: In the twenty-five years since eclectic improv-rock band

Umphrey’s McGee formed, their sound has been an amalgamation of genres, moods, and

tempos, effortlessly flowing from one feeling to the next throughout an album or concert—or

sometimes within a singular song.

7/21/24 – Mariachi Reyna de Los Angeles: Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of Mariachi

Reyna de Los Angeles®, the first all-female mariachi in the United States, is that they have

paved the way for other female mariachi groups to exist at the professional level. In a musical

landscape of songs that are often written by men, Reyna has created their own history.

7/22/24 – Shaylen: Since Shaylen took a leap of faith into country music in 2022, she has

experienced a meteoric rise, swiftly ascending to become one of the most prominent emerging

female artists in the country music scene. Her debut single, “What If I Don’t,” became a viral

streaming sensation on every platform garnering over 26 million streams just on Spotify alone.

7/23/24 – The Mavericks: For decades, the Mavericks have created the kind of multicultural

Americana that reaches far beyond America itself, blending their favorite stateside sounds —

including rock & roll, country, and R&B — with Tex-Mex twang, Cuban rhythms, Jamaican ska,

and other Latin influences.

7/24/24 – Slaughter: In 1990, Slaughter hit radio, MTV and the U.S. touring circuit like a

tornado, coming seemingly out of nowhere to roll through everything in its path and turn it

upside down. Touring the world with bands that they loved, Kiss, Ozzy, and others, meant the

good times were just a song away, and their first hit single, "Up All Night" certainly fit into that

mold. Their second chart-topper, "Fly To The Angels", was more representative of the spirituality

and awareness that goes into most of the band's music and lyrics.

7/25/24 – Runaway June: Strong-minded, soft-hearted, and wildly free-spirited, each member

of Runaway June possesses the kind of powerhouse talent and radiant charisma that fully

commands the spotlight. But when the three musicians sing together, their crystalline harmonies

create an impact well beyond the sum of its parts and instantly stir up a whole world of feeling:

sweet relief from heartache, escape from the everyday chaos, an unabashed freedom to shake

off your inhibitions.

7/26/24 – Landon Parker: With his deep voice and small-town roots, Landon Parker bridges the

distance between traditional country music and its modern-day makeover. It’s a southern sound

that celebrates the good things in life — cold beer, old friends, and new beginnings — created

by a blue-collar songwriter who’s spent countless nights on stage, playing show after show on

Nashville’s honky-tonk circuit.

7/27/24 – Long Beach Dub Allstars: After making their triumphant return in 2020 with their

self-titled album, Long Beach Dub Allstars are taking it all the way back-to-basics on their new

album "Echo Mountain High". The album will take listeners on a trip through a psychedelic

mountain range of musical madness filled with reggae, rock, ska, hip hop, hard dub, and soul.

7/28/24 – Voz de Mando: Voz de Mando is one of the most prominent groups within the

regional Mexican genre, with three Latin Grammy nominations, more than 7 million followers on

its social networks and just over 500 million views on YouTube. The group is part of Pandora's

select “Billionaires Club” for having more than 1 billion spins on the platform.

The 2024 California Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles runs July 17 through July 28 and this year’s theme is “Wide Open Spaces!”. Connect with them on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
