LYN AVENUE Friday ~ 7:15pm ~ Main Stage Damon and the Sh!t Kickers are from all over, Montana to the Ukraine, and every place in between.
Friday ~ 6pm ~ Main Stage Lyn Avenue is a four piece Country-Pop band from Savannah, Georgia. By combining poppy melodic hooks with unfeigned heartfelt lyrics, Lyn Avenue has created a unique euphonic experience. Vocalist Cc Witt has a warm and distinctly wonderful singing tone with just the right amount of country twang. Her voice is perfectly complimented by the simple, yet striking guitar parts of lead guitarist Patrick Ellington, the thumping basslines from bassist, Larry Jones, and the tasteful beats of drummer, Randy Cuba. From the markedly bittersweet, to the profoundly beautiful, Lyn Avenue’s song themes range greatly, guaranteeing a song and story to fit any circumstance.

They are a self-described outlaw county band that formed in 2008. They have a diverse background in music ranging from punk rock and heavy metal, to jazz and country. When they get together though, there is no doubt that all these boys are all about playing some good old country music that they grew up listening to.

The Chuck Courtenay Band is a hard-rocking, electric group that is made up of veteran players with several decades of combined experience as professional musicians (touring and/or recording with several major country stars), They have emerged as one of the tightest and most versatile outfits of their kind, and the lengthy, memorable shows at honky-tonks, country dance clubs, bars and festivals nationwide have cemented their position as one of the most promising acts on today’s club circuit. They now play over two dozen shows a month (mostly one-nighters or two-night stands) in an ever-widening radius and travel in their own customized tour bus. The group’s high-energy setlist straddles the line between classic country and twangy, roadhouse rock and roll -- an intentional blend that’s a source of great pride for Chuck himself, who’s no fan of the bland, overproduced pop which is far too often marketed as “country music” these days. Chuck’s first CD release was expertly co-produced by his longtime pedal steel man Tommy Butler and tracked in Nashville with some of

Music City’s finer players. It was an impressive debut all around, and was released to positive reviews on a small, independent, Nashville label. Yet, as strong as that disc was, the difference between that record and GOOD SIDE OF THIS BAR (his brand-new four-song EP) is evident from the first note. Credit that “million dollar shine” to Dave McAfee, who for the past 13 years has played drums both on records and stages around the world for Toby Keith, and who co-produced and drummed on Jamey Johnson’s massive hit album THAT LONESOME SONG (which was nominated for three Grammys and five American Friday ~ 9:15 pm ~ Main Stage Country Music Awards, and which also contained the Song of The Year “In Color”). The result is a stunningly well-crafted collection of potential singles that easily rivals most anything you’ll hear on Top 40 country radio today.

Alex Cooley’s Electric Ballroom was where Tom Werman of Epic records saw Mother’s Finest for the first time in Atlanta Georgia. They went on to record their first of three gold albums “Another Mother Further”,“Mother Factor”, and “Mother’s Finest Live “. We have been asked where the inspiration to create flows from, and is there a particular theme in our original music? As mentioned before, it comes from EVOLVEMENT! We just want to keep getting better and better. To keep it pushing in the groove. Our inspirations come from wanting to seek out the truth about longevity, health and the metaphysics of life, spiritualism, religions, to rise above the normal ways of thinking and so on. Known internationally, they are incomparable and unique in their ability to bring it to you in concert. And today they are still one of the best LIVE bands on the planet touring year long, but calling Atlanta home. In today’s world of multiplicity, and ethnic diversity, there is a oneness in people and music that has always been in the sound of Mother’s Finest.

most of her life living comfortably as a desert rat. Not too long ago she moved to Georgia in order to be closer to the school, SCAD, which she wishes to attend. Jazzmyn grew up wanting to be a veterinarian, and did her best to draw every animal that roamed through her books. Then when she decided that was silly she decided she wanted to become a writer, and doodled all over her notebooks in an attempt to find a story. It wasn’t until high school when she realized that the thing she had been looking for all that since then she has been living with the contented that

Savannah’s American Hologram is a gutsy and eclectic power house
trio comprised of Britt Scott, Craig Tanner, and Eric Britt. Although Americana Goth Pop and Roots has surfaced as a description, songwriting is what defines their music. Interweaving Acoustic guitars, 3 part harmonies, and 3 interchanging lead singers make American Hologram a standout among Southeastern bands. The band formed after Britt’s album Greener came out in 2012, as Tanner and Scott began accompanying him live. They quickly branched into a band, with everyone bringing ideas and songs to the table. Since then, the trio has become a prolific songwriting outfit and preforms at venues around the Southeast, in addition to playing high profile shows in their hometown of Savannah.

The Brigands be a musical minded group, performing songs, Sea Shanties and tunes, lore and fact, from the Golden Age of Piracy, 1650 -1750 and beyond. They have been called the ultimate tavern band and that is what they aim for. The music heard dockside, in a drinking etablishment frequented by sailors, pirates, freebooters and smugglers alike, was not the music heard in the King’s court nor in the concert halls of the day. It was music for hard working and maybe hard chased men, looking to lift a tankard, seek out the fairer sex and forget for awhile the life at sea, be it hauling nitrates to Chile or luffing matches with a fat prize off the coast of Dry Tortuga. Thats what a Brigands show is like.
