About GoldenSky 2027
GoldenSky is Danny Wimmer Presents' country festival at Discovery Park in Sacramento, the riverside park where the American River runs into the Sacramento. It ran from 2022 to 2024, sat out 2025 and 2026, and returns for its fourth edition on Saturday October 9 and Sunday October 10, 2027, at the start of a three-year commitment to the park that runs through 2029.
Zach Bryan tops the 2027 bill, with Megan Moroney, Treaty Oak Revival, Ty Myers and Whiskey Myers underneath. The rest leans young and on the rise: Hudson Westbrook, Max McNown, Wyatt Flores, Vincent Mason and Avery Anna, with Kaitlin Butts and Braxton Keith for the honky-tonk end and The Band Perry as the one act from an earlier era. The day split is not out yet.
Passes went on sale Friday October 16, 2026, with an SMS presale at 10am PT, an email presale at 11am and the public on-sale at noon. Two-day passes cover both days on one RFID wristband, and camping and parking are sold separately.
Expect country, singer-songwriter, honky-tonk and country-folk across 23 acts.

Star the acts you want now. When set times drop, your schedule is already built.
Emo cowgirl — Georgia songwriting with a wink, and the fastest-rising female star in country radio.
Texas band dragging red-dirt country somewhere rowdier and heavier — grit, volume and worn-out honesty in place of Nashville polish.
Texas teenager with a rasp older than he is — country-soul songwriting that arrived more or less fully formed.
East Texas band whose southern rock runs far heavier than anything on country radio, built into a serious live draw by years of relentless touring.
Alexandra Kay
Waterloo, Illinois singer who built her audience posting covers of 90s country songs online, then self-released her 2023 debut 'All I've Ever Known'.
Arizona-raised songwriter who broke through online — heartbreak country sung with a crack left in it.
South Carolina songwriter with a rough, low voice and heavy-hearted lyrics; 'Rollin' Stone' carried him from bedroom videos to a major-label debut.

Braxton Keith
Midland, Texas singer with a high, lonesome twang who works through honky-tonk and Western swing on his Warner Records Nashville debut, 'Real Damn Deal'.
Dreamy neo-traditional country from a fast-rising Nashville transplant — twang with a soft-focus, retro glow.
Fey Fili
Appalachian-raised songwriter in her early twenties who draws on old mountain ballads and the American Songbook for quietly offbeat folk.
Graham Barham
Louisiana-raised singer-songwriter working the rougher, rock-edged side of modern country, with a raspy voice suited to hard-luck songs.
Texas country riser with a barroom baritone — 'Take It Slow' took him from regional to national inside a year.
Red dirt country with a theatrical streak and a sense of humour that cuts — Oklahoma storytelling that plays like a one-woman show with a band.
Los Hermanos Mendoza
Three brothers raised in Bakersfield who play that town's twangy honky-tonk sound and fold in the regional Mexican music they grew up on.
Queensland singer and guitarist raised on a cattle farm, playing neotraditional country he sharpened at rodeos and campdrafts; 'String By' was the breakout.
Oregon folk-country riser — earnest, streaming-era troubadour with a fanbase that found him one chorus at a time.

Noah Rinker
Songwriter from Shaver Lake in California's Sierra Nevada who learned on his church's piano; 'Save My Soul' spread online and led to a Warner Records deal.
The sibling trio behind "If I Die Young" — harmony-forward country pop with a gothic streak.
Tyler Nance
Lamar, Missouri farm kid who taught himself guitar while working as a welder; his 2025 single 'Keeps Me Sane' reached the Hot Country Songs chart.
Vincent Mason
Roswell, Georgia songwriter whose moody 'Hell Is a Dance Floor' went viral in 2024; his 14-track debut album 'There I Go' followed in November 2025.
Teenage Arkansas country prodigy — porch-honest writing in the Zach Bryan lineage, wise beyond the birth certificate.
Oklahoma red-dirt songwriter who went from dorm-room recordings to theatres in about eighteen months — Stillwater sincerity at full sprint.
The headliners
Zach Bryan · Oklahoman who wrote and self-released his early records while serving in the Navy, and kept the ragged, one-take feel after the arenas arrived. The biggest draw in country right now, still playing like the records were cut in one take.
Up-and-comers to catch early
Waylon Wyatt · Arkansas teenager writing plain, porch-honest songs well past his age.
Mack Geiger · Queensland cattle-farm kid playing neotraditional country he sharpened at rodeos.
Noah Rinker · Sierra Nevada songwriter whose 'Save My Soul' got him from church piano to Warner.- Los Hermanos Mendoza · Bakersfield brothers playing that town's honky-tonk with regional Mexican music folded in.
Other acts worth planning around
Treaty Oak Revival · Odessa, Texas red dirt played loud enough to pass for a rock show.
Whiskey Myers · East Texas southern rock, heavier than anything else on the bill.
Kaitlin Butts · Oklahoma storytelling with a theatrical streak and a sharp sense of humour.
