The following description comes from the event organizer.

Rushad Eggleston is a mystical realm-hopping jester of infinite glee, whose unprecedented extremely fast bouncy cello style blows minds of all kinds. A charming entertainer with unbridled passion, his joy is so contagious that many showgoers complain of sore facial muscles afterwards (the name Rushad means “joyful soul”). A whimsically adventurous sense of melody shines through in all shades & styles on any of the many instruments he bejicks “to keep it fresh”. Sometimes he reads mystical poetry in his own language, speaks in tongues, channels aliens, throat-sings, beat-boxes, or does skits as different characters such as Negative Ralph, Country Bob, The Goblin, or Guru Fafa which he has a right to embody because of his half-indian heritage. Somewhat of an acrobat, Rushad can spin on one leg, hang upside down, do the splits, play in plough pose, and catch flying fruits in his mouth while playing fast intricate cello rhythms. A distinguished flatpicker, his innovation and skill are admired by many guitar luminaries. Although some of his music is avant garde and experimental (he has an amazing deathmetal cat-voice) he is an expert at reading crowds and making personal anthems for people, which means he can basically entertain anyone, even old stodgy people. Rushad calls himself The Bat-Prince of Jick, Rushadicus, Rusharguanox, and Ruusta Benuusta Beduusta B’shad, who all have goals. Some of goals are: to spread joy everywhere, to show people music is (at least tied for) the most powerful force on earth, to inspire many vegan transitions for the animals and planet, to climb 10,000 trees, to surprise delight and expland minds, and to play as many hours of music per day as life will allow, including while driving. “Tharnoxx” AKA thankyou for being interested in The Ambassador of Sneth. Gladness will see you soon. Bye. Like, i have some stuff to do okay, i think we’ve said enough. Full Scholarship to Berklee? boring. Carnegie Hall? eww. Won all 3 years of middle school talent show beating all the popular kids? old news. Okay laters.

The Magic Forest Fiddlers perform music inspired by the wild place where everything is everything and the roots of great trees speak with mushrooms. Because the trees can’t always speak for themselves, the Magic Forest Fiddlers play musical instruments. Celine Parton sparkles on vocals and fiddle. Erin Esses shimmers on the cello. Adam Amr delivers the drums. Colin Schmidt breaks it down on the bass. Joey Gish holds a guitar and occasionally mumbles. Look out for the wizard who may or may not disrupt our set and enjoy the music which takes you into the mystical place in the far beyond where the stars touch the flowers…
