SUMMARY:Hollister Motorcycle Rally
DESCRIPTION:The Hollister Rally began in 1947. It is believed to be the birthplace of the American Biker and was the inspiration for the powerful 1953 cult classic movie\, The Wild One\, starring Marlon Brando and Lee Marvin. The cast\, adorned in leather jackets\, introduced hipster biker phrases to movie audiences and defined biker fashion for decades to come. The movie is considered a cultural milestone and motorcycle enthusiasts return to Hollister every 4th of July weekend to celebrate this cultural icon. \nThe epicenter of the Independence Rally is San Benito Street in downtown Hollister. The rally features magnificent motorcycles\, live music\, vendors selling everything related to motorcycles\, festival foods\, free motorcycle parking on the main street. The event is free and open to the public. \nVendor\, sponsor and VIP opportunities are available from Roadshows\, Inc. by calling 775-690-2035 or email to admin@roadshowsreno.com. \nHollister Independence Rally Page Link\nVendor registration Link\nSponsorship Information and Opportunities Link\nRally Schedule of Events (Link)

SUMMARY:Portland-based art-rock band Baby Grendel
DESCRIPTION:Baby Grendel\, which started out as a recording project for frontman Jonathan Suarez\, came together on the Hatch(l)ing EP\, recording as a cohesive band\, bringing together a dynamic blend of art-rock sounds\, creating a milestone in their musical journey. Known for their introspective\, genre-blurring sound\, Baby Grendel is the brainchild of Jonathan Suarez. With Hatch(l)ing\, the band expands on the emotional themes of isolation\, growth\, and self-acceptance that have been a constant throughout Suarez’s musical evolution. \n“I’m not someone who’s had an easy time making friends. The songs I make are sometimes about isolation\, and about a cycle that all of us have to go through on our own forever\,” comments Suarez. “We do extraordinary things\, bending time and space\, to try to break through to something new\, but it’s always just going to be us and this dizzying cyclic existence. I think it can mean something if we learn how to be honest. \n“Hatch(l)ing is also about growth and change. Evolving a solo project into a 5-piece band. Learning to accept the way things unfold without thinking that nature made a mistake. I’m having a hard time with that these days\, but it’s the only show in town so it’s where I’ll be.” \nThe new EP Hatch(l)ing was recorded at Jackpot! Studios in Portland\, with renowned producers Larry Crane and Justin Chase at the helm. The EP features four tracks: “Satellite\,” “Hatching\,” “Morning Prayer\,” and “They Will Fall\,” each showcasing the band’s evolving sound with rich instrumentation and deeply personal lyrics.
