Brian Maggi

Brian’s self-deprecating wit includes his claim to fame as the inventor of the SPAM filter-an excuse he humorously uses for not reading his mother’s emails.

He began his comedy career as the humor editor for In Formation Magazine and wrote sketch comedy for Chicago’s legendary Second City. Brian is also the creator and host of the show Adulted and has released his first comedy album, Frenemies with Benefits, in October 2024, currently available on major streaming platforms.

Brian’s comedy draws heavily on his life experiences as a husband, father, and tech professional, offering relatable and insightful humor.

Regina is a multiple Moth StorySlam Winner, an NSN Grand Slam Finalist, and invited to be an Exchange Place Teller at the prestigious National Storytelling Festival. She writes the Normal Notes blog, which features the life stories of a special needs parent and a multiple sclerosis warrior raising three kids with her wife in the suburbs.

We’re bringing the heat with food, wine, beer, and a live performance by the electrifying Mitch Polzak—one of the most high-octane entertainers you’ll ever see. Kicking things off is Livermore’s own hometown hero, Loren O., setting the stage for a night of music and memories.

Performing Live in Person…

Mitch Polzak

The big guy from out West and larger than life energy (he’s also 6’5’) performer, guitarist, singer, banjoist, songwriter, composer, entertainer, musical historian and teacher Mitch Polzak wears his heart on his sleeve and his playing in his heart.

Polzak performs rockabilly and 60’s country music with the religious fervor of Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash and delivers a Honky Tonk ballad with the sincerity of Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings. Mitch will bring a room to a fevered pitch of joyous energy on the dance floor and then tell you a story in a song like two old friends sitting at a kitchen table at midnight.

Fluent in the musical languages of Country, Rockabilly, Honky Tonk, The Bakersfield Sound, Surf, early Rock and Roll, Bluegrass, Cajun, Blues, and Truck Driving music gives Polzak the unique voice of the melting pot of the American musical experience.

His virtuosic guitar skills and influences range from the blazing flying fingers of Joe Maphis , Marty Stuart, Roy Clark, and Don Rich to the timeless dreamlike state of “Sleepwalk” by Santo and Johnny along with the vast valleys of deep rumbling twang reminiscent of Duane Eddy.

Polzak’s abundant joy in communicating with people through music leaps off the stage through every fiber of his being. His near-constant genuine smile can be seen clear across the room and invites you in without any pretense or judgements. Some call him “The Honky Tonk Mister Rogers”!

Loren O.

Loren O is a musician and performer, known as “The Mayor of Music” in Livermore, CA. He performs a variety of genres, including Country-Western, Blues, Rock, Pop, and even Christmas tunes.

Mix together some Ol skool, country, honky tonk, blues, rock, grunge, some 50’s and 60’s, add one Stetson, add some pickin and a grinnin , put it all in a blender and you get Loren “O”.

He frequently plays at the Livermore Farmers Market and other local events. He is also known for his energetic performances and his use of his guitar.

You Do Not Want to Miss this Show!!!

Last year’s Summer Shindig was our first and an unforgettable evening that left everyone buzzin’. It was a true celebration of music, wine, and community, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Livermore Valley.

Mitch Polzak, accompanied by his band, brought the house down with his unique blend of rockabilly and country music. The crowd was captivated and on their feet, dancing and shakin’ their moneymakers.

A Night of Music, Food, and Wine

More than music, it was a complete sensory experience. Guests enjoyed a variety of delicious food options paired with Del Valle Winery’s renowned wines.

To get a sense of what this event was like, check out some of the photos and videos from the night. They capture the energy and joy that filled the air as Mitch Polzak and his band performed. If you missed this year’s Summer Shindig, you won’t want to miss the next one. Mark your calendars for future events at Del Valle Winery to experience the magic for yourself.

Don’t Miss the Next One!

Del Valle Winery’s Summer Shindig is an event you won’t want to miss.

Torio was listed as one of the Bay Area’s best stand-up comedians by SFist and won the title, “Best Joke” by the award-winning SF blog Courting Comedy.

He was first discovered by a gentleman naturalist in 1676, causing an uproar among the clergy, who claimed that he was placed on Earth by God as a test of faith. After much careful study, Torio has been widely accepted as real, though some controversy lingers. Many people believe that early humans coexisted peacefully with him, even caring for him and riding on his back as a form of transportation. But Torio is not strong enough to carry people, instead relying on speed, cunning and a bulletproof eBay rating for survival. ​

Emily Van Dyke

Emily is a San Francisco-based comedian with more than a decade of stand-up experience. Originally from Logansport, Indiana, she moved to San Francisco in 2007, which has inspired much of her material, particularly her amusing observations on culture shock and adaptation. Her comedy mines themes from her twenties and thirties, touching on gender politics, dating, career, parenting, and relationships, often weaving in stories from her personal life.

She is known for her conversational delivery, relatable anecdotes, and willingness to experiment with both English and Spanish in her sets. In February 2024, she released her debut comedy album, “Feeling Myself,” produced by Blonde Medicine, which showcases highlights from her entire career rather than just recent material. Emily’s comedy is marked by a blend of nostalgia, vulnerability, and lighthearted takes on adulting, and she is now exploring more philosophical and political material, including topics like survival, voting, and the environment.

Story Go Round: A Night of Hilarious True Tales
