Katdelic
Katdelic is the the funky brain child of Grammy nominated Ronkat Spearman (Parliament Funkadellic). Ronkat is a polished entertainer and Katdelic delivers the goods. The band is a hybrid of rock, funk, soul, and pop; an infectious, sophisticated mix that moves mind and body into a groove that lasts all night long. The Katdelic ensemble features 2 bass players, a horn section, DJ loops and background singers to deliver a wide range of musical textures.
Katdelic is the new school sophisticated funky expression for right now - this moment. A tidal wave of musical love coming right at ya.

Cello Joe
Joey Chang aka CelloJoe is the world's only beatboxing, long distance bicycling, looping cellist. He is the wildest beatboxing cellist in the west. By combining cello with beatboxing, he has created a unique genre: Classical Hip Hop.
CelloJoe records live on stage with a loop pedal and produces intricate tapestries of harmony, melody, and rhythm. His beatboxing (vocal percussion) and funky cello grooves form a rich soundscape for intelligent lyrics and his music spreads love, joy, laughter and conscious vibrations.

Executive Chef Michael Cook
Michael Cook is the Executive Chef at À Côté, a small-plates restaurant in Oakland’s charming Rockridge district. This wildly popular Mediterranean tapas bar has well deserved rave reviews and a loyal following. Small plates reflecting the best of seasonal Mediterranean cuisine are served family-style by a friendly and knowledgeable staff. Cook also is the chef behind Rumbo Al Sur, which serves great Latin food and cocktails in Oakland’s lower hills on Park Blvd. Come hungry, as the Chef will prepare us a special selection of small plates, with all proceeds to benefit the Moke Fund.

The Mokelumne River Restoration Fund (The Moke Fund) is a new effort coordinated by the National Forest Foundation to restore and protect the Mokelumne River Watershed, which provides drinking water to 90% of East Bay residents and businesses. The Moke is in danger now due to drought and the potential for wildfires. All proceeds from this event will go towards projects that restore the watershed and protect our future supply of clean water in the East Bay! Learn more at: http://www.nationalforests.org/moke
