Encampment native Alysia Kraft and The Patti Fiasco entertained crowds late Saturday night.
The tiny town of Riverside hosted some big regional musical acts this weekend.
Music enthusiasts from the Rocky Mountain West showed up in droves to watch some of their favorite bands play. The wide variety of acts included bluegrass, reggae, country and indie bands; filling the interests of a diverse set of music fans.
On Saturday night, the crowds grew to near 1,000 people to see the popular, Laramie/Fort Collins based band, The Patti Fiasco.
It was a homecoming for their lead vocalist Alysia Kraft, who grew up in Encampment. Before their one-hour set, she said there was no other place she would rather play.
"All my favorite people and bands are here," she told the large crowd.
Kraft's Wyoming influence was on display as she played her song "Wyoming is for Lovers" to an approving audience.
The band also played their song "Pam & Caroline", Kraft told the crowd the song was written about how her mother, Pam Kraft, moved from Detroit to Wyoming and met her father Dan. Both Pam and Dan were at the concert, standing in the front row.
