MEDFORD, OR – Fans of alt-country, folk-rock, and raw, poetic storytelling—get ready. The Holly Theatre is proud to present Cowboy Junkies live in concert on Sunday, June 22, as part of the band’s 40th Anniversary Tour. Tickets, ranging from $25 to $45, offer access to an unforgettable evening spanning four decades of haunting melodies and soul-stirring lyrics—from their iconic Trinity Session to their most recent release, Such Ferocious Beauty.

We noticed that a lot of places in Ashland do something cool for First Friday. So, sure, we'll be followers this time.

We're calling it First Friday Flights! Or maybe we're calling it the Empanada Throwdown!

Either way, it's a music, food, and wine event that you should definitely join! Here's the deal:

Freshly made local empanadas from Caba Empanadas
Lovely fall wines from Resistance Wine Co (that's us!)

You could pretty much hang out all day if you want. But if you just want to pop in for a few empanadas/pours, you could have plenty of time left to visit all the other galleries.

Also, we have some art so you don't just have to look at that weird friend you invited... But, still, bring your friends.

$20.00 Wine tastings + whatever an empanada cost in 2025.

Doors / Food Trucks and Beer Garden at 4:30

Music from 6:00 - 9:00

Glitterfox

Glitterfox doesn’t chase the algorithm—they follow instinct, community, and a kind of magia(Basque for magic). Formed by longtime creative partners Solange Igoa and Andrea Walker, thePortland-based band has built their career the analog way: a van, a map, and unforgettableshows stitched across towns like constellations. Their rise has been defined by raw connectionand fearless self-expression, with music that fuses garage rock grit, new wave shimmer,southern Americana soul, and a dancefloor pulse—all tangled with heart and heat until whatemerges is unmistakably, inimitably Glitterfox.

Fox and Bones

Scott Gilmore and Sarah Vitort are Fox and Bones—energetic offbeat folksters with a retro-tinged, soul-stirring, modern vintage bent. Their hardworking artistic output has earned them first place at the 2023 Tucson Folk Festival songwriting contest and second place in the International Acoustic Music Awards, amongst other accolades. In between their rigorous tour schedule, the duo founded Portland’s Folk Festival; an annual celebration of folk and Americana music at the iconic Crystal Ballroom in their hometown of Portland, Oregon.
