More Music To Share From Bottle Rock 2018!

Alex and I attended all three days of Bottle Rock 2018, a music festival held annually in wine country – Napa, California…here is a look at this year’s terrific lineup:

Next Up: Bruno Mars!

Without a doubt, the most popular attraction was closing night: Bruno Mars wowed the crowd with an energetic set that included all of his greatest hits – right out of the gate, Mars hit the stage with his great hit “Finesse” – here are the last few moments before Mars hit the stage, and the song:

Mars has an almost effortless swagger, with a total command of the stage and an upbeat, energetic vibe that really brings the crowd alive.

Bruno played for almost two hours, and was full of energy all night long. He performed all of his hits, keeping the crowd on their feet dancing…

His voice was strong, he worked the crowd well, and the band was tight as well…he really knows how to work the stage, as he did on “That’s What I Like”:

A great finale to three days of great music in a fun, relaxed environment…bravo to Bruno Mars and his entire team for a great night of music!

I got to hear a lot of music over the three days, and one of my favorite new discoveries was “Bleachers”:

Lead Singer Jack Antonoff was terrific, especially with his great hit “Rollercoaster”, which was included on the “Love, Simon” movie soundtrack, which he produced as well – see his live performance here:
