Palisades Tahoe To Bring Home The Funk Aug. 8-9

Brews, Jazz & Funk at Squaw Valley

Palisades Tahoe is host to some of Lake Tahoe's biggest and most popular summer events. One of the mainstays, the Brews, Jazz & Funk Fest, is set to deliver with a huge lineup of popular acts over two days, August 8th and 9th.

While August may signal the slow wane of summer’s long days, the Village at Squaw is still going strong with an impressive and eclectic lineup of bands to keeps things hopping on two stages throughout the festival weekend. Performers include Thick Newton, Con Brio, and The Revivalists on Saturday, and the Mark Sexton Band, Mingo Fishtrap, and the Grammy award-winning Rebirth Brass Band on Sunday. Groove Session will take the second stage both days.
