Festival Guest Artist: Brown Rice Family Band (12:10 PM, 12:35 PM & 1:40 PM)

Brown Rice Family is today's freshest world roots band jamming towards global solidarity and organic happiness. Guided by a strong belief in the natural flow of things, BRF provides the masses with a distinctively organic World Roots Music, which encompasses reggae, hip-hop, dancehall, afro beat, jazz stylings, rock, brazilian, Latin, and funk.

The band was formed while its members were attending the City College of New York. Initially, BRF started off with two members, Yuichi and former member Joe Jang, who both shared the belief that one should live in a healthy environment and eat naturally grown food. While flirting with their organic approach to living and music, they came across brown rice---one of the healthiest foods for human consumption.

Festival performances take place at the McKinley Amphitheater. Usdan will livestream select guest performances, which you can watch on Usdan's YouTube and Facebook pages and on our website.
