Erin Ash Sullivan & Rupert Wates

 

Erin Ash Sullivan’s music reflects a deep sense of place, and her lyrics are always authentic and drawn from her lived experience. Erin’s 2024 release, Signposts and Marks, debuted at #4 on the FAI Folk DJ chart, and Americana UK describes her as “a songwriter of the highest order.” A “Most Wanted” selection from the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, she has also won several songwriting competitions and is the three-time winner of her hometown’s Fourth of July pie eating contest.

Melodic, fresh, and easygoing, with storytelling prowess on full display…recalling the likes of Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez.”

Who’s Bad – Thriller Night  The Ultimate Michael Jackson Experience

 

Founded in 2003, Who’s Bad’s live performance is an unrivaled celebration of pop music’s one true King.

Their power-packed performance of Michael Jackson’s expansive catalog has united and ignited crowds on almost every continent, and can only be described as a jaw-dropping, musical must-see. As the longest-running Michael Jackson tribute, and the only one to predate his untimely passing, Who’s Bad is the World’s #1 Michael Jackson Tribute.
 
Performing over 2500 shows worldwide, they have awed even the skeptics, selling out nearly 50 venues in the United Kingdom including London’s O2 in December of 2010, the venue where the King of Pop was slated to end his career with a 50-show “This Is It” concert series.

Beyond this unparalleled achievement, Who’s Bad has checked some of the world’s most famous pavilions off their ‘to-do’ list, selling out their first tour of China with stops at Ningbo’s Grand Theatre and Hunan Grand Theatre in Changsha. Since then, Who’s Bad has toured in Thailand, Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Canada, Germany, Amsterdam and more.

The Tony Holiday Band

The Tony Holiday Band: Memphis Soul & Blues. With Special Guests: One Dime Band

There’s something about Tony Holiday that draws people together. In fact, community has been at the core of Holiday’s young career from the beginning. Since relocating from Salt Lake City to Memphis in 2017, Holiday has been at the center of a soul blues revival in Memphis, anchored by a contingent of young, savvy well-schooled musicians with a “family-like” attitude and a strong belief in one another. Mentored by past legends, Holiday and this loose Memphis collective are building on the city’s rich traditions and carrying them forward.
