Saxophonist extraordinaire Jimmy Carpenter, multiple Blues Music Award winner and Gulf Coast Records international touring artist, returns again this year, as do festival favorites, fiery guitarist Jay Gordon and Blues Venom and the Sandy Haley Band, recently named a ‘Top 100 Artist for 2022’ by influential magazineMusic Connection and fronted by soulful blues siren, Sandy Haley. Also returning to Woodystock: blues quartet Catbone, and Tiffany Lynn singing the Star Spangled Banner. New to Woodystock this year: Los Angeles-based Kenny Williams and the Stomp Down Riders, fronted by colorful guitar virtuoso, Kenny “Big Daddy” Williams; and Phoenix, AZ’s Until The Sun, female-fronted alt-blues/rock quartet whose newest release, A Night At The Rhythm Room, has received great reviews.
