Having grown up in a musical family in Petaluma, California, Ben Morrison made a name for himself over the past 15 years as the frontman of Bay Area bluegrass band The Brothers Comatose. But for Rivertown Revival, Morrison is putting together a special band of musical friends including members of T Sisters, Lester & Dylan Chambers and more, to embody the old spirit of country and the contemporary soul of rock and roll to close out the Barn Stage on Saturday evening.

A Rivertown tradition in which members of The Crux plus John Courage back up a revolving cast of artists on our beautiful Barn Stage. This year features performances by, Tru Lyric, Maya McNeil, Spike Sikes, Simoné Mosely, Rafael Sarria Bustamante from La Gente SF, and Sierra Camille.

The Crux has appeared as a chain-rattling folk punk crew, an unhinged gospel service, a theatrical film-noir jazz combo, and more... This band is a true North Bay institution with a revolving cast of musicians assembled and coaxed into action by regional impresario Josh Windmiller. Ever-evolving and constantly pushing their own boundaries, The Crux explores the last remaining wild places through music and art.

John Courage is soulful vocals and vast sonic scapes set to the backdrop of a lockstep rhythm section.

He was born in New York City, raised in North Carolina, and honed his earliest musical chops in a band playing Irish and old-time tunes — but his unique style of deeply felt, R&B-inflected folk really matured during his two decades singing and playing in cafes, bars, and night clubs of San Francisco.
