>Headliners for the 2025 season:
August 1, 2025 🎶 **WILL MOSELEY** Will Moseley is out of small-town South Georgia singing country music in every bar around. His career so far has had a true grassroots start, and with the release of his new songs, his following is steadily growing. He has left tracks in bars from Statesboro, Tifton, Athens, Clemson, and even Nashville, playing requests from traditional to modern country. This far, he’s had some awesome opportunities to play shows with artists such as Zac Brown Band, Dillon Carmichael, whose hit “Son Of A” is a chart-topping sensation, Whey Jennings, the grandson of country music legend Waylon Jennings, Megan Moroney, and a few other significant Nashville acts. Follow him on social media, stream his song “Coming Down”, and don’t miss the opportunity to see him live if he comes nearby!
-*PLUS* The Jack Wharff Band
Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, The Jack Wharff Band plays strikingly unique blend of bluegrass, Country and rock. Known for their electric live performances, masterful instrumentation, and their abilityto make music that consistently defies the confines of genre, the young band burst onto the scene last year with snippets of jaw-dropping original songs posted to TikTok and Reels.
Composed ofvocalist/frontman Jack Wharff, drummer Garrett Howell, bassist Ryan Atchison and guitarist Evan Novoa, the salt of the earth four-piece have quickly captivated audiences with their infectious energy and unrelenting passion for the craft.
The band has taken everything that has come their way in stride – viral videos of their original songs, a record deal with Big Machine Records, a move to Music City and more – earning a loyal following along the way. With an unparalleled ability to command an audience with vibrant stage presence far beyond their years and toe-tapping anthems that beg to be sung along to, it’s clear that this is just the beginning for The Jack Wharff Band.
