NATIONAL GUITAR features Pacific Northwest all stars musicians from Polecat, Gregory Alan Isakov, Petty or Not, and the Jenner Fox Band. They first dreamed up a Paul Simon Tribute on a 250-mile bicycle-powered tour of their original music, when they discovered a shared reverence for Simon's work. That spark became National Guitar-a five-piece ensemble with decades of arranging and touring experience. Their set spans Simon's career, from Garfunkel to Graceland and everywhere in between, breathing new life into his beloved catalog and lifting audiences to their feet to sing, groove, and celebrate a true American original.

The Bellingham, WA based band features piano, electric guitar, bass, dobro, acoustic guitar, and rich vocal harmonies.

The evening begins with a short set of the Jenner Fox Band's critically acclaimed originals. Known for his poignant and humorous storytelling, "Jenner combines the lyricism of Joni Mitchell and the commentary of Neil Young to represent the next generation of singer-songwriters" (Grammy-nominated producer Cookie Marenco). The band's debut LP, Anything (released May 9), earned high praise: "There's a quiet magic in the way they play together - in how each instrument listens, breathes, and responds - the soul-stirring, spirit-settling debut is worth savoring from start to finish" (Atwood Magazine). Since 2015, Fox has released nine albums of original music and toured extensively across the country.
