90s alt rock grunge band, Everclear, delivered an "intoxicating" performance at the Solvang Theaterfest on March 27, 2026.  They are best known for their hits, "Father of Mine", angsty song about a boy growing up without a father and "Santa Monica", reflecting struggles with alcohol, drugs and personal grief.  Lead singer, Art Alexikis has had his fair share of struggles including his ongoing battle with MS but has risen above it all, finding the strength and energy to return to touring.  Fans roared with applause and rose from their seats, singing along and rocking out.  The 90 minute concert was a welcome blast from the past for fans in the Santa Ynez valley and beyond.  

Abra Cadabra sounds like a magician's incantation but it's also the name of a tribute group for the iconic 70s musical group, ABBA.  There was magic in the air as they brought ABBA's memorable tunes to life in a glittering performance at the Solvang Theaterfest, April 7, 2026.  The energy on stage was electric and contagious, raising audiences to their feet to dance as they performed the hit Dancing Queen not only once, but twice ending the evening with it.  Multiple costume changes featuring boa feathers, flickering lights and oodles of sequins added to the disco feel of the performance.  After the performance, each member took the time to pose for pictures with all their fans.  And just like the song says, they were all "having the time of their lives". --Written by Gina Sigman  Photos by Barry Sigman
