Live music takes center stage again this weekend at Red Hawk Resort + Casino as two crowd-favorite acts bring their high-energy performances to the Stage Bar. On Friday night, Kirk Basquez and Los Vaqueros deliver a heartfelt country set, followed by the return of dance floor rockers Steel Breeze on Saturday night.
Friday night kicks off with the soulful sounds of Kirk Basquez and Los Vaqueros. A natural-born performer raised in a large family of musicians, Basquez found his passion for country music at a young age. At just six years old, he received his first guitar from his mother—and he’s been playing ever since. Influenced by legends like Hank Williams Jr., Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, and Jamey Johnson, along with modern artists like Sturgill Simpson and John Mayer, Basquez brings a traditional country soul with a modern edge.
Known for passionate performances across Northern California, particularly around the South Lake Tahoe region, Basquez frequently collaborates with well-known regional acts like the Cripple Creek Band. Whether he’s playing a honky-tonk bar or a casino stage, Basquez delivers an engaging show that resonates with country fans. Showtime is 8 p.m. to midnight on Friday.
Saturday night, the energy turns all the way up as Steel Breeze returns to the Stage Bar. A favorite at Red Hawk, Steel Breeze is known for its high-octane rock shows filled with nonstop hits spanning classic and modern rock. From anthems you grew up with to party tracks that keep the dance floor moving, Steel Breeze brings variety and volume with a performance that always packs the house. Showtime is 10 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Both shows are free to attend with no cover charge, and seating at the Stage Bar is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Whether you’re a country fan or ready to rock, Red Hawk delivers something for everyone this weekend.
