Get ready for an unforgettable night of soul-stirring music at Ojai Underground, featuring two powerhouse women of indie-folk and Americana: Lara Ruggles and Jess Bush!

🌵 Lara Ruggles is hitting the road in 2025 with her highly acclaimed new album Anchor Me, a stunning return to her indie-folk roots. With “soaring vocals spread across a progressive indie-folk production” (Flex Music Blog), Anchor Me debuted at #1 most added on the NACC Folk chart. From desert solitude to national stages, Lara’s journey has included sharing the spotlight with Grammy-winner LeAnn Rimes, an artist residency at Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park, and a Top 3 finish in the Tucson Folk Festival’s prestigious songwriting competition. Her music is raw, introspective, and hauntingly beautiful—you don’t want to miss this.

🎹 Jess Bush brings her unmistakably earnest Americana sound to the stage with bluesy piano, soulful vocals, and lyrics that cut straight to the heart. Channeling the raw emotional power of Carole King, Brandi Carlile, and Stevie Nicks, Jess has made waves both as a solo artist and as a sought-after collaborator for artists like Jacob Cole, Wryn, and Nicole Sophia. Crowned “Best Overall” at the Songwriters at Play competition, Jess’s storytelling and musicianship are second to none.

✨ Come for the stories. Stay for the soul.

Reserve your seat or stream the show from home—just don’t miss it.
