I just confirmed with Jeff Malone the lineup for the 2005 Americana Homegrown Showcase at Fun Fest this year and couldn’t be more excited. It’s been a bumpy road along the way to this event, but I believe we truly have one of the most exciting original music lineups to appear on one stage at this city-wide summer festival.
After an earlier go-around with Scott Miller and Southern Culture On The Skids, we have combined our thinking and resources and will present the following artists on stage in front of the The Taste of The Tri-Cities on Wednesday, June 20th, 2005.
Chris Knight
Mic Harrison
Reagan Boggs Band
The Everybody Fields
and Scotty Melton
This is going to be a great show and we will also be sharing this incredible event with The Verge production company and should see lots of this event on television over the next several months.
Sound will be managed by experts with Robert Pickle from The Soundpranos on the knobs and we should have a great stage with a canopy in front of the largest crowds that night at Fun Fest.
I’ll begin to work on some of the ads/media/press this week and will post information as soon as I get it.
Special thanks to our sponsors: Appalachian Caverns, Dashboard Audio, Northeast State University, Dr. Enuf, Pet Partners and Hardees!
