Main Stage: Saturday's artists

Rock and Roll Reunion, 11 a.m.-12:15 p.m.

Get some barbeque, get comfortable and get ready to enoy the best in Classic Rock, Beach and Blues. Based in Spartanburg, SC, "Rock and Roll Reunion's" front man is guitarist Tom Crabtree, one of the best-loved television news anchors (Channel 7/WSPA-TV) in the Carolinas.

Gary Ray and the Heartwells, 12:45-2 p.m.

Putting the Country in Rock ‘n Roll or vice versa, Gary Ray & the Heartwells from Atlanta, GA, have been described as “Zac Brown Band meets Jason Aldean.” Their high lonesome is high energy and results in great Country anthems you’ll rock to  all summer long. 

South 85, 2:30-3:45 p.m.

With lyrics as entertaining as their licks, these smart, talented muscians all hale from small towns along Hwy. 85 in South Carolina—and the essence of their brilliant, sometimes funny and always striking songs comes straight from those roots. Just as with their lyrics, their music is an easy yet sophisticated blend of Country, Folk, Southern Rock and Bluegrass that you can’t help but jump right in to. South 85 is one great ride.

The Nouveaux Honkies, 4:15-5:30 p.m.

“If Johnny Cash and Freddy King had a baby it would be the Nouveaux Honkies,” said South Florida’s Sun Sentinel Online. This violin, guitar, bass and drum quartet is best described as Roots ‘n Roll that rocks—you just have to hear it for yourself. A favorite of festivals from coast-to-coast, this band is guaranteed to get you out of your seat.

April Verch, 6-7:15 p.m.

April Verch fills the stage with a voice that comes from the heavens and fiddle playing firmly rooted in the eclectic culture of Ontario’s Ottawa Valley. A Canadian fiddle champion, step dancer and singer, Verch performed at the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver. The energy of her fiddle playing and step dancing gets her regularly compared to Natalie McMaster. Her sweet voice causes comparisons to Alison Krauss. Verch is a rising star on the music scene. The consensus is you must see her live—and you get to! “ … ethereal-voiced Verch … has blossomed from a Canadian fiddle champ and stepdancer into a triple-threat entertainer … “ — Sun Chronicle

Seth Walker, 7:45-9 p.m.
Enough said!  Austin based (though he grew up here in North Carolina), Walker is one of the fastest rising stars in blues and roots’ music. His 2009 release “Leap of Faith” is quickly climbing it to the top of the America charts and for good reason. It’s fun, smart, goodtime music. "The first time I heard Seth Walker at a small club in Nashville I was impressed like I haven't been impressed in 30 years, with performance, presence, and great songs." - Delbert McClinton.

Scoot Pittman, 9:45-11 p.m.

Like mama’s Southern cookin’ sticks to your gut, Scoot’s music will satisfy that sweet spot in your brain and keep a smile on your face. Pittman consistently and seamlesly blends booty shakin’ rhythm with lasting, meaningful lyrics. Very real and very fun– this music makes life make sense—at least while you’re listening....
