Joslyn & The Sweet Compression make their Live at Lakeview debut this Thursday; a performance we’ve been waiting all summer for! Within the first 30 seconds of the video below, you’ll understand why.

After cultivating her dynamic voice and performance skills in backup roles, Joslyn Hampton teamed with her stepfather (a touring guitarist and songwriter who has shared the stage with legends such as Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, and Van Morrison) to compose a captivating set of tunes and assemble an ace band. Joslyn & The Sweet Compression (Marty Charters – guitar, Steve Holloman – keyboards, Smith Donaldson – bass, Rashawn Fleming – drums, Trevin Little – saxophone, and Chase Fleming – trumpet and trombone) combine to deliver a hook-filled mix of funk and soul on their self-titled debut album, released in 2019.

“Magical…gives everybody the joy.” — Billboard Magazine

“A refreshing take on the neo-soul / funk sound, unbound by modern cliches.” — Glide Magazine

“A marvel…an instant classic!” — Soul Tracks

“I’ve never seen a band come up more quickly…with more immediate skill and swagger than Joslyn & the Sweet Compression. Joslyn’s vocal command and stage presence is special, and her band is brick-sh**house tight.” — Travis Young, Moonshiner’s Ball

“The music Joslyn Hampton conjures onstage is rich with the funk, soul, and rock ’n’ roll inspirations of multiple generations, and at the heart of the brassy attack of her band, The Sweet Compression, and in the clear and confident command of her singing, sits a core element: Groove.” — Walter Tunis, Lexington Herald-Leader

Opening the show at 4:30 pm is South Lake Tahoe’s own, Miranda Love. She served up a sneak peak of her talent while performing with IMJK back in June, and we’ve been looking forward to round 2 ever since!

August kicks off with Object Heavy delivering a unique fusion of vintage style, hard hitting soul with modern funk, gospel and Neo-soul influence for their Live at Lakeview debut!

Object Heavy is Humboldt County’s hardest hitting soul sensation. The band is led by the nuanced and powerful voice of Richard Love and composed of seasoned veterans of the West Coast Soul and Funk scene. 

“A tight well oiled machine that plays heavy funk and R&B fueled by great songwriting and deep grooves.”-Kelly Finnigan, Producer / Vocals and Keys in Monophonics

The infectious rhythms of Boca do Rio start this party at 4:30 pm with a flavor all of it’s own. Originally hailing from the San Francisco Mission, Boca do Rio is a Brazilian-American samba-funk explosion.

Forrest Day brings a mosaic of of hip hop, rock, jazz, and reggae to South Lake Tahoe this Thursday!

“There’s a lot of hip hop and rock with jazz and reggae. It all pokes its head out in different ways at different times.” the band’s songwriter and lead-man, Day told Music Insider Magazine. 

Based out of Oakland, CA, Forrest Day has been performing around the country for almost a decade. It’s a true rags to riches story, but without any money. He’s got a new album in the works, new singles our and big festivals getting booked this year. He was last on the Live at Lakeview stage in 2012!! 

We’re honored and excited to welcome him back to the Live at Lakeview stage, after all these years!

What’s sure to be an epic day of live performances begins with the dynamic sounds of VTA – Vincenzo Thomas Amato at 4:30 pm.

This Thursday, Vokab Kompany returns to the Live at Lakeview Stage for the first time in 5 years with a very special set lined up for you! 

The night is sure to be filled with a high-energy blend of hip-hop, soul, and electro vibes that will have you dancing into the sunset. With their dynamic blend of genres and infectious vibe, Vokab Kompany always deliver a performance to remember. They always do! 

“Vokab Kompany is another act that refuses to be pigeonholed. Two MCs might lead you to believe that it’s hip hop, but that doesn’t begin to tell the story. The sevenpiece band from San Diego played for more than an hour, a set that was at times funky, jazzy, heavy, bouncy, even bluegrassy…And it all made sense. Through it all, the crowd was treated to microphonic gymnastics of the dueling MCs, Rob Hurt and Burkey. The group is legit; see them.”  – Sacramento Press

ROXILVERWOLF gets the groove started at 4:30 pm with a unique sound you’re sure to love!
