Santa Clarita City Briefs is spotlighting performers appearing at the 2012 Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival, presented by Lockheed Federal Credit Union, at the Melody Ranch Motion Picture Studio. The festival is running from April 19 – 22 in Santa Clarita, California.
With their music, the Messick Family celebrates four generations of Santa Clarita living. As a family, they share more than forty years of making music, raising horses, and grazing cattle in the hills surrounding our valley.
Wild Horse Singers and Dancers were formed to give Urban American Indian Youth in the Los Angeles area an opportunity to learn about traditional values like drumming, singing, and dancing. They teach Northern Traditional songs, dance styles, regalia making, arts and crafts, and ceremonial activities.
They provide opportunities for young people to perform, to participate in pow-wows and to contribute to their community in a meaningful way.
