Music Festival Weekend
The 2016 Julian Music Festival will celebrate its 47th anniversary on Saturday, September 17 with a diverse lineup of musical acts, announced Terry Cox Productions, the event organizer. The festival will take place from 1 to 7 p.m., (gates open at noon) on the grounds of the Menghini Winery (1150 Julian Orchards Dr.) in Julian. This year’s festival will feature a variety of musical genres, including Americana, Latin jazz, adult contemporary, folk, Celtic and more. Way Back Then, a trio of multi-instrumentalists, will kickoff the festival with an eclectic repertoire of folk, acoustic, traditional Americana and "usually a few slightly zany novelty tunes," according to a band spokesperson. Award-winning singersongwriter Sara Petite will draw from her rural upbringing and musical influences to deliver a vibrant mix of country, bluegrass, rock and folk melodies. Gregory Page, a thirdgeneration musician, is slated to perform his own unique essence of folk, Celtic, American roots jazz, ragtime, swing and French Romanticism. Back by popular demand from last year's festival, Abrakadabra, will wrap up the festival with their high-energy, fusion of Latin jazz, island, funk, reggae, pop and rock. “The Julian Music festival is billed as an end of summer celebration with music, family and friends,” says Cox. “We work to line up musical acts that can be enjoyed by a variety of people of all ages. Mix the music with the spectacular beauty of San Diego County’s backcountry and you have a day not soon to be forgotten.” Located just three miles north of downtown Julian, the festival venue is nestled in the foothills of Volcan Mountain and is surrounded by apple orchards and Menghini Winery’s six-acre vineyard. The California Wolf Center will be the festival’s official beneficiary for the second year in a row. The Julian based California Wolf Center’s mission is to recover wild wolves in suitable habitats and ensure successful coexistence through their conservation, education
