16th Annual Woofstock
at Halvorsen Park in Eureka!
Headlining this year ~ Canned Heat!
Canned Heat has performed at more music festivals than any other band in the world! The band gained international attention and secured their niche in the pages of rock ‘n roll history with their performances at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival (along with Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and The Who) and the headlining slot at the original Woodstock Festival in 1969. Canned Heat’s unique blend of modern electric blues, rock and boogie has earned them a loyal following and influenced many aspiring guitarists and bands during the past four
decades.
Opening for Canned Heat ~ Monte Mar & Vintage Soul
Montë Mar has been self-described as a sophisticated day at the beach. Their songs have an "instantly infectious and carefree California sound" with pleasant surprises like kalimbas, neon synthesizers and Portuguese lyrics.
Find them online at Monte Mar Music.com.
Vintage Soul is an energetic, soulful, funky, rhythm & blues band that cap tures the essence of classic "old school" dance music from the 60's & 70's. Vintage Soul is based out of Eureka, California.
