We bid farewell to John Marlatt. We are very sorry to learn of John's unexpected passing in the early hours of Monday morning on July 24th. As many of you know John was the owner of the Moonshine Cafe where he provided unwavering support for musicians and performing artists since 2006. When we approached John last year to host our Top 10 Comeback Festival, the first show back since the pandemic closures, he did so without hesitation. We sincerely appreciated him letting us call the Moonshine Cafe home that weekend, including taking over his parking lot! Our condolences to his family (including his wife, Jane, and son, Dan) his friends, and his fans.
