The Davis Music Fest turns "Lucky 13" this year, and KDRT is thrilled to continue our tradition of live broadcasts, this time on Friday June 20 and Saturday June 21.

Davis Music Fest offers three days of live performances presented by the all-volunteer Davis Live Music Collective. With seven downtown venues and 40 bands, this all-ages, multi-genre event from June 20 to June 22 has something for everyone.

KDRT is broadcasting live from the fest on days one and two:

Friday's opening night at Sudwerk Brewing Co. includes two stages and six bands. KDRT (95.7 FM/kdrt.org) will broadcast from 4 to 8:45 p.m. from the Hopyard Stage featuring the Smoking Data Guns, Ian George, and The Gold Souls. We've also scheduled interviews with Broken Compass Bluegrass, The Big Poppies, The Gold Souls and Boot Juice.
On Saturday KDRT will be live from 3 to 8:15 p.m. at Armadillo Music featuring Ian George, Nat Lefkoff, and David Luning, and we'll have a booth on F Street for interviews with Katie Knipp, EleNah, The Snares, Son Cafe, and Tinvis.

Tickets are available here. The festival is a fundraiser for arts and music education in Davis public schools. It's funded partly by a Sacramento Foundation Arts and Culture Grant and by the City of Davis.
