“You’re right up close and personal with the best chefs, winemakers, and artists right there at your fingertips-to talk to, to see, to be right up there with.” “When you’re at Yountville Live or Live In The Vineyard you don’t need a set of binoculars,” Bobbii said. Everyone here is so welcoming and engaging-it’s amazing.”īobbii said the Live In The Vineyard concept stems from the desire to bring “current pop music” into the area however, in a way, that’s designed to make the audience members feel connected with the performer, as opposed to being one in a sea of people or watching a singer from two football field-lengths from the stage. They just don’t have a great experience they say, ‘Wow I’m all in. We encourage them to bring their spouse or significant other. “I think what’s really awesome is when artists are on the road or on tour-it’s their job-but what we try to do is we not only have them perform and entertain but to enjoy themselves while they’re here and take it all in,” Bobbii said. One of the secrets to pulling this talent, Bobbii said, is simply to extend the Napa Valley’s hospitality to the performers as well as the audience. “They’re just very much in that creative tip.” “We try and find the next artist who’s about to break and also the artists who are very talented and have big personalities who can perform acoustic guitar with no amplification at a wine dinner,” said FF Entertainment President Bobbii Hach Jacobs. The 2020 lineup hadn’t been finalized at the time of publication, but in the past the festival has pulled in some of the musical artists in the country-David Hodges, the Goo Goo Dolls, Colbie Caillat, O.A.R., X Ambassadors, Foy Vance, Blue October, and the Plain White T’s, to name a few. If I’m not invited back as an artist, you can bet I’ll be buying a ticket as a fan.”įor this year, Yountville Live will stretch from March 19 through March 22. “The food, the wine, the hospitality, and the music were of a caliber unmatched by any other event I’ve ever been associated with. “Yountville Live was, hands-down, the most incredible festival experience of my life,” popular singer/songwriter Marc Broussard said in a testimonial on Yountville Live’s website. The four-day event is a celebration of food, wine, and music, and surrounds the popular annual Taste of Yountville Festival.
It all started in 2008, with a Jason Mraz performance in the Napa Valley around the time he released the multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated hit “I’m Yours.” Nowadays, Napa Valley has three such events each year, all put on by FF Entertainment, and starting this year with Yountville Live.
