Saturday’s Ohana Festival in Dana Point featured performances centred on joy, solidarity and care for others, with country acts prominent among the day’s top slots. Headliner Tyler Childers continued that theme with a message about loving one’s neighbour, following Brittany Howard’s remarks urging people to protect their communities.

Stephen Wilson Jr. brought Eddie Vedder onstage for “Hunger Strike”, while Jon Batiste performed a genre-spanning set that included “Freedom” and a crowd singalong of “Hallelujah”. Alabama Shakes played songs from across their catalogue, including their new album, and Howard’s comments drew cheers. Irish band Florence Road, whose equipment had been stolen before its planned Friday appearance, was added to the Saturday evening bill.
