History of the Friday Night Concert
In 2011 the Tumbleweed Music Festival hosted its first Emerging Artists Concert on the Friday evening preceding the festival. The concert was hosted by C.A. Hurst, and the non-profit organization called "Catalyst."
"Catalyst is dedicated to helping young people find and develop their areas of creativity and to encourage people of all ages to rekindle their creative fires and revisit their creative wellsprings."
The concert was a big success and the Tumbleweed Music Festival has held this concert every year since.
