Each year, Rooster Walk brings in an assortment of immensely talented individuals to serve as “Artists at Large” during the festival. These musical maestros bounce around all four days, sitting in with other bands in the RW lineup.
RW15 Artists-at-Large (The House Band musicians):
But that’s not all! Our Artists at Large also join forces onstage to form the “Rooster Walk House Band” for three special sets over the weekend. Each set has a musical theme, plus special one-day musical guests who are a perfect fit for that particular theme. The core of the RW House Band is always the spectacular Artists-at-Large musicians who will be hustling all weekend at Pop’s Farm. Exciting improv magic ahead…
Be sure not to miss the Keller Williams & The Rooster Walk House Band set!

Donato eventually became a member of the band, playing four hours a night at Robert’s (464 shows in total).
