Silver Lake Rodeo

Before launching Silver Lake Rodeo, Sloan Dylan Walters contributed to music featured on TV, film, NPR, and college radio. He has performed on stages of all sizes, from intimate local clubs to major festivals, such as Dreamy Draw, SXSW, and Country Thunder. After stepping away from music for several years to raise his kids, Walters felt the pull of songwriting and performing once again. Silver Lake Rodeo blends his life experiences with a wide range of musical influences—classic country, folk, indie-rock, Latin pop, and timeless pop melodies—resulting in a sound that feels both familiar and refreshingly new.

Jerusafunk

Jerusafunk (JFUNK) is a nine-member psychedelic world funk ensemble from Arizona that blends traditional funk, jazz, klezmer, disco, and Latin rhythms with avant-garde sensibilities and a fearless spirit of exploration. Their adventurous, highly danceable sound pairs driving bass grooves and intricate clarinet lines with experimental polyrhythms for a globally inspired, genre-melting experience. Since forming in 2012, JFUNK has performed widely throughout the United States and Mexico, earning recognition as a Top 10 Artists to See Live in Arizona by Phoenix New Times and as a Tempe City Arts Qualified Artist (2023–2025). Their notable releases include JFUNK (2021), The Hierophant (2017), and Sweat & Glitter (2015), with praise from SPIN magazine, Mr. Bongo, and The Arizona Republic.
