He's back — and we couldn't be happier to welcome him home.

Chad Bushnell is the real deal: four generations of cowboys and singers running through his blood, a ranch life still very much his own, and an Americana spirit woven through every lyric and melody. A Red Bluff native and Nashville recording artist, Chad has built a resume that speaks for itself — opening for Dwight Yoakam, Kris Kristofferson, Billy Currington, and Collin Raye, and winning Country Artist of the Year at the Josie Music Awards at the Grand Ole Opry in 2025.

Known for his high energy on stage and his ability to work any crowd, expect an evening of originals, crowd favorites, and the kind of country music that actually means something.

This is a family night — kids and four-legged friends are welcome and encouraged. Bring your own food, grab takeout on the way, or share a table with neighbors. All you need to add is a cold pint from the tap.

Welcome back one of our favorites.

Max Minardi is a full-time touring musician whose music blends Americana storytelling with modern folk-pop warmth — think Cat Stevens meets Noah Kahan with a little James Taylor thrown in for good measure. Whether he's performing solo with his signature loop-station setup or bringing the full band, his shows are built on the kind of musicianship and authenticity that reminds you why live music matters.

With over 200 shows a year and more than a decade touring the United States, Canada, and Europe, Max has earned a reputation as a master storyteller who connects with every room he walks into. His latest album Anywhere is a beautifully crafted collection of songs about heartbreak, love, and life on the road — and it sounds even better live.

This is a family night — kids and four-legged friends are welcome and encouraged. Bring your own food, grab takeout on the way, and let Max handle the rest.

🎸 Friday Night Live — Danny Horton

May 22nd · 5:30–8:30 PM · Waganupa Brewing

Welcome back one of our favorites — and one of Plumas County's own.

Danny Horton is a singer/songwriter living in the heart of the Sierra Nevada mountains. He has been playing professionally since 1995, toured around the globe, and reached number 8 on the European charts while signed to Tiefdruck/Universal — before returning home to Blairsden/Graeagle right here in Plumas County.

His soulful voice has been compared to Chris Stapleton mixed with Johnny Cash — weathered vagabond one moment, smooth crooner the next, and hootin' and hollerin' the next. His sound pulls from Classic Country, Folk, and Classic Rock, with just enough punk rock edge to keep things interesting. He plays a Martin guitar while kicking his own bass drum and snare — a one-man rhythm section with a whole lot of soul.

We loved having Danny the first time around, and this return visit is going to be one to remember.

This is a family night — kids and four-legged friends are welcome and encouraged. Bring your own food, grab takeout on the way, and let us handle the cold pints.

Join us for a one-day wellness retreat with Natalie from Whole Health Wellness

Immerse yourself in nature at Mill Creek Resort and experience yoga, sound healing, hiking, & connection, and cacao.
