JJ Grey & Mofro headline the first night with known favorites and new songs from the long-anticipated, self-produced album Olustee. Grey’s gritty baritone drives so deep to the truth of blues, you might think he was from here. But he puts a Florida swamp rock sauce on the tenderest meat. That harmonica, though.
The Runaway Grooms A group from Vail Valley in Colorado, The Grooms recorded their latest album in Memphis at Paloma Sound Studios with former Ardent Studio engineer Jeremy Horn. Their latest LP of songs about touring This Road marks the band’s return to roots rock.

Oteil & Friends If Grammy-winning bassist Oteil Burbridge, who played with the Allman Brothers Band for over a decade, could jam with his buddies, he’d pick: Johnny Kimock on drums and his father Steve Kimock on lead guitar, Jason Crosby at the fiddle, harmony with Lamar Williams Jr. and Tom Guarna on guitar. They play two sets.
Kudzu Kings Hailing from Oxford, Mississippi, and known for their unique blend of rock, country, and Americana music, The Kings pack the dance floor with infectious melodies and heartfelt storytelling.
Devil Train A local favorite six-piece band brings the 901 vibe with roots-centered strings and familiar beats, like the soundtrack of music halls all about town coming out to play.
