The Music

Get ready to put some pep in your step as Jayden Secor will be on the mic!

Hailing from Ventura, California, Jayden Secor blends country with heavy influences of rock and Red Dirt. As a self-taught singer-songwriter and guitarist, his sound can be described as well-rounded with impressive musicianship and solid lyricism. Secor has released numerous singles over the years and has been consistently playing shows along the West Coast and in Nashville.

They will be playing some of your beloved country hits and some originals that are bound to have you scootin boots and boogieing down.

The Venue

Located in the highly coveted Santa Rita Hills of Santa Barbara Wine Country, Hilltop is a private 350 acre working ranch and vineyard. The ranch boasts some of the most pristine land in the Santa Ynez Valley, with its proud rolling hills, large old growth trees, rich clay soil, refreshing coastal breezes and the Santa Ynez River that runs through it. With the vines planted along rolling hills, the grazing animals greeting you upon arrival and the rustic windmill and barn, t’s a picturesque venue with authentic ranch style and country charm.

The Fun

And one of the hilights of the night, our live auction… where you’ll find unique items and experiences available to bid on.
