Todd Cowart - Todd Cowart is a roots rocking, country singer/songwriter from Jenkins County where he grew up on a farm and later moved to Athens, GA where he has spent over 27 years playing music as a solo artist and lead singer of The Hushpuppies Band. His music combines rural themes with the spirit of Country Music’s past. “Angels Building Bridges”, his latest album, was produced by nationally re-known artist, bassist and producer Michael Steele (John Berry, Randall Bramblett) and features Nashville Recording Artist and Country Music legend Brian Burke (Normaltown Flyers).
Holman Autry (Joshua Walker, Brodye Brooks & Casey King) - Holman Autry is a country & southern rock band from Danielsville Ga., with 13 years of touring and 4 albums' worth of music to their credit. Songs in their catalog are as varied and eclectic as the musicians themselves, and range from hard hitting true rock & roll, southern rock, tell-it-like-it-is country, and a little soul: any and all if which are sure to hit home with your ears and your heart. Tonight's show features members Brodye Brooks and Josh Walker with Casey King!
Britt Helton - Wrightsville Georgia native, Britt Helton, has had a love for music of all kinds his entire life, and that love has turned into a career path in the last year. Even though music has always been a steady in the life of Helton, he has found his way to this calling through years of Football, College, and Farming. It was his undying passion for soulful music and relatable lyrics that lead him to this point. Helton, a self-taught musician, was influenced by the soulful sound of Otis Redding, the lyrics of Waylon Jennings, and the power of Chris Stapleton. Britt Helton is at the center of a thriving Central Georgia music scene, and has a one of a kind, attention grabbing Vocal. With a working man's sound, a rugged attitude, and soulful lyrics, Britt Helton captivates every audience he plays for.
Hunter Grayson - Born just outside Athens, Ga. Hunter Grayson is a singer/ songwriter. Playing various instruments early on in his childhood, music has always played a large role in Hunter's life, but it wasn't until the summer of 2015 that he decided to play guitar more seriously and try his hand at songwriting, and in 2016 he formed a group to play with him. Hunter Grayson & "The Hat Creek Band" started causing quite a stir in Athens, quickly playing max capacity shows at some of the larger venues, and now preforms across the southesoutheast. Raised on a family farm Hunter grew up listening to true root Country music, Hunter pulls inspiration for his original music from real life experiences, and says he would rather his listeners relate to his lyrics than "bump to the bass" he will attest to being a lifelong fan of some of his prominent musical influences such as; Alabama, Brooks & Dunn, Garth Brooks, George Strait, Kenny Rogers, and the late Keith Whitley. Hunter Grayson is bringing "Classic Country" back to life with some soul!
