The Coffis Brothers
2025-05-30 19:00 - 21:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Martin Hotel, 94 W Railroad St, Winnemucca, NV, 89445
A Winnemucca audience favorite returns! This show will be part of an amazing weekend of creativity and connection with the inaugural Winnemucca Murals and Music Festival.

With two songwriters, six albums, and more than a thousand shows under their belt, The Coffis Brothers have earned their reputation as modern-day torchbearers of all-American rock & roll. It’s a sound caught halfway between amplified Americana, acoustic folk, roadhouse R&B, and electrifying roots music, crafted by a pair of California-born siblings who’ve been sharing the stage since childhood, and the five piece band filled out by Kyle Poppen (guitar), Aidan Collins (bass), and Cory Graves (drums).
That sound reaches a new peak with Kaw-fis Bruth-urs. The band’s third collaboration with Bay Area legend (and longtime Mother Hips frontman) Tim Bluhm, who serves as the album’s producer, Kaw-fis Bruth-urs finds Jamie and Kellen Coffis letting their guard down, enjoying the creative ride as much as the destination itself. For every signature-sounding song like “Cut Right Through” — a heartland rock anthem built for highway drives and long horizons, as sunny as the band’s Golden State homeland and as hook-driven as a Tom Petty classic — there’s another track that stretches the band’s sound into new territory. The result is The Coffis Brothers’ widest-ranging album yet, running the gamut from bluesy, blue-eyed soul (“Face the Music”) to jangling, harmony-heavy power pop (“Do You Want To”).

Lacy J Dalton
2025-12-10 19:00 - 21:00 | Martin Hotel, 94 W Railroad St, Winnemucca, NV, 89445
Lacy J. Dalton is a Grammy nominated singer/songwriter from Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania. She’s one of the most instantly recognizable voices in music – the woman People Magazine called “Country’s Bonnie Raitt.” She was awarded “Top New Female Vocalist of the Year” in 1979 by the Academy of Country Music, and quickly rose to national prominence with her hit single “Crazy Blue Eyes,” a song that raced to #7 on the Billboard Country Charts. Lacy’s collaboration with Willie Nelson on his Half Nelson CD was a high spot for her. Lacy was the only woman featured on that recording (which included singing legends Ray Charles, Neil Diamond, Merle Haggard, Julio Iglesias, George Jones, Leon Russell, Carlos Santana, Mel Tillis, Hank Williams Sr., and Neil Young), and was awarded a Platinum Record for it. She also received a Gold Record from Hank Williams Jr. in 1985 for her support performances throughout his Five-0 Tour. She quickly became one of the few women who could successfully share the stage with the likes of Hank Williams Jr., Willie Nelson, George Jones, Glen Campbell, Merle Haggard and Charlie Daniels. Her Hit records are legendary million-airplay cuts: “Hard Times,” “Crazy Blue Eyes,” “Hillbilly Girl with the Blues.” “Takin’ it Easy,” “Everybody Makes Mistakes,” the worldwide hit “Black Coffee,” and her signature song “16th Avenue,” the anthem for Nashville songwriters voted one of Country’s Top 100 songs ever by Billboard Magazine. Her career includes accomplishments in music, film and radio. As an independent artist with her own label called Song Dog Records, Lacy has released three albums, “Wild Horse Crossing” in 1999, a tribute to Hank Williams Sr. entitled “Here’s To Hank” in 2010, and her first Americana album “The Last Wild Place Anthology” in 2006.

Kyle-Matthew Taylor
2026-01-10 19:00 - 21:00 | Martin Hotel, 94 W Railroad St, Winnemucca, NV, 89445
Kyle-Matthew Taylor writes Americana songs rooted in earnest storytelling and the grit and grace of lived experience. His sound pulls from the quiet growl of Gillian Welch, the wry storytelling of John Prine, and the alt-rock sway of Wilco and Drive-By Truckers. After spending a decade in the Texas Hill Country—where he fronted the indie-rock project The Canvas People and sharpened his voice as a songwriter—he relocated to Nevada in 2021. His songs carry the fingerprints of his northeastern roots, his years in Austin’s creative orbit, and the lived-in honesty he brings to every lyric. Taylor’s music bridges heartache, hope, and the quiet moments in between. Join us for some Saturday night joy with Kyle and his band.

Hannah Juanita with Mose Wilson
2026-02-07 19:00 - 21:00 | Martin Hotel, 94 W Railroad St, Winnemucca, NV, 89445
Hannah Juanita left her home state of Tennessee in her early twenties, excited to meet the world. She travelled in search of herself, worked odd jobs, and spent countless nights singing fireside under the stars with friends, never pursuing music as a career.
Eventually, Hannah made it back to Tennessee, landing in Nashville with nothing but her dog Loretta, her guitar, and a handful of heartbreak songs. She started singing around town and quickly became a staple live performer and a highly respected vocalist in the traditional country scene in Music City, known for her classic, old school sound.
Self proclaimed ramblin’ gal, Hannah Juanita has toured heavily around the country since 2021 headlining and supporting acts like Kaitlin Butts, Hayes Carll, Braxton Keith, Nick Shoulders, Emily Nenni, Summer Dean, and Jesse Daniel. Her debut record ‘Hardliner’ established her reputation as a full-hearted, free-spirited, and irresistibly genuine honky tonk angel. Hannah Juanita’s second full length record, ‘Tennessee Songbird’, produced by Mose Wilson, was released August 30, 2024 to high acclaim, breaking into the top 40 on the Americana Radio Chart and top 3 on the Alt Country Chart. Named one of the five female artists creating the future of country music by Grammy.com, in 2025, Hannah will be touring across America and Europe.
Mose Wilson is a talented artist blending roots, country, Americana, and bluegrass with influences of soul, funk, and rock & roll. Starting his musical journey at six, he became the first traditional musician in his family, inspired by legends like Hank Williams and Johnny Cash.
His self-titled debut album, **“Mose Wilson,”** released in 2021, received critical acclaim and showcased his ability to explore themes of love, heartbreak, and the complexities of life. As a guitarist, songwriter, and producer, Mose has collaborated with artists such as Melissa Carper and Eliza Thorn.
With his upcoming album, **“That’s Love,”** Mose invites listeners to experience the heartfelt connection of his music.
