First Annual Home Grown Concert Series / Friday, June 8, 2012 @ Riverton Rodeo Arena
A Fabulous Utahs' own Home Grown Band!

j.wride was formed in May of 2009. The band is a three piece group made up of piano, bass, and drums. Jesse Wride on Piano/Vocals, Austin Anderson on Drums, and Court Eccles on Bass. All three members started their music careers playing in elite Jazz groups all over the country before starting to dive into the Pop/Rock genre which has helped the band quickly become known for its “multi-genre” experience including rock/jazz/hip-hop. Following their very successful debut album “Work of Art” the band quickly grew both locally and internationally. j.wride has recorded a song with international hip-hop sensation, MIMS. The band has already become one of the fastest growing bands in Utah this year.

Experience Art -

The ultimate goal of the Riverton Art Festival is art education and to have art make a positive impact on our community.  The Riverton Art Festival is a forum for introducing established artists, new/upcoming artists, and their work to the youth of the surrounding community.  In conjunction with the efforts on our performance stage, the festival creates an atmosphere that invites creative interaction between artists and their patrons.  This encounter provokes deeper thought, a better understanding of art, and the importance it plays in our lives.  By presenting the visual and performing arts simultaneously, our event provides children and adults an opportunity to learn, be educated, and appreciate art through very emotional and expressive mediums.


Great family experience -

The Festival creates and atmosphere that provides creative interaction between artists and performers. These interactions provoke a deeper understanding of the arts and the unique role they can play in the individual’s life. The Riverton Arts festival provides the community the opportunity to perceive and think in new ways.  To not only see the community as it is but what it can be.

The Riverton Arts Festival is a family friendly event. The festival exposes everyone who attends to a plethora of art forms including: bands, dancers, handmade soaps, hand painted pictures, woven metal made into bracelets, and a variety of other artwork.  Quality art should be free for everyone to view and appreciate. Our festival offers free hands on art experiences for all ages. Chidren have the opportunity to experience the creative process first hand in the Art Park.  This interactive experience helps to promote the arts in a fun and educational way. Experiencing the arts first hand helps create an appreciation that will last a lifetime.
