Kristy Ballard was born and raised in Taylorsville and loves being a part of the Taylorsville community. She enjoys singing and playing the piano, acoustic guitar and, as an homage to her German roots, her Oma's accordion. Listen to a sample of her music here .

Bridging Betty is an Americana band made up of a husband, wife, brother-in-law and a couple of Utah neighbors. They appreciate many styles of music and have combined their efforts to celebrate mountain music on the Wasatch Front. Catch a preview of their music on their YouTube channel.

The Starry Nights live music event is free so bring your friends or family for an evening out together on the plaza! Look for something happening every Friday night on the plaza through Sept. 25.
