Performing on the Mother Goose Stage this summer--Mumbo Gumbo! Enjoy their unique blend of rock, soul, afropop, zydeco, and country.

Over nearly 20 years, on the septet’s eight albums and during countless gigs around their native Northern California, Mumbo Gumbo has created something that is less a specific style than a particular feeling: The sound of sheer joy. Or, as one of the band's songs puts it, "That big life feeling."

Fronted by two first-rate singer/songwriters, Chris Webster and Tracy Walton, the band is anchored and driven by one of the longest-lived rhythm sections in Northern California: drummer Rick Lotter and bassist Lynn Michael Palmer. With Reggy Marks' sax, Jon Wood's guitar, and Steve Stizzo's keyboards fleshing out the band's expansive sound, Gumbo has built a reputation not just for danceability, but for creative depth.

It starts with the songs. Moving back and forth between Webster's sly, sometimes melancholy explorations of romance and individuality and Walton's ebullient, unabashed celebrations of family and commitment, Gumbo weaves a rich tapestry of sound and sensibility that transcends genre.

No outside food or beverage, chairs, or cameras allowed.
