Up Next Flagstaff is a new series at Coconino Center for the Arts that is proud to showcase local emerging artists
Sleep Stampede a singer-songwriter folk duo based in Flagstaff, Arizona. Their sound has been described as “the feeling you get after a good long day in the mountains,” which reflects their love for wild places that bring them inspiration. Sleep Stampede’s imagery-rich songwriting, intimate performances, and community-centered events evoke familiarity, hope, and sadness, bringing listeners into a dream-like state of both comfort and heartbreak.
Jacqueline and John, the team behind Sleep Stampede, are both frequently covered in dirt, fond of early mornings, and feel most themselves while songwriting over coffee. Jacqueline is a guide, teacher and facilitator focused on nature reconnection and creativity, and John manages river restoration projects in Arizona. Their original music continues to grow and change with the tides of their inspirations.
Prawn Party is an emerging indie band based out of Flagstaff, AZ. Formed in March of 2024, the group consists of Kevin Coronado (Guitar/vocals), Marley Wall (Bass/vocals), Preston Luce (Drums/wizardry), and Anthony Chesney (Guitar/vocals). As a newborn Frankenstein monster of psychedelic sounds, they have formed an alliance to perform open heart surgery on your mind and bring you medium octane, low fidelity music designed to make you dance while existentially contemplating the void.
