Kicking off the season on May 15, Lamont Landers takes the stage with his signature Southern soul.

With new music slated for release in 2025, Landers promises a powerful, heartfelt performance. “I let the music speak for itself,” he shares. “There’s a natural Southern vibe, soul, and guitar—it’s everything I am.”
On June 19, legendary New Orleans icons The Dirty Dozen Brass Band bring their infectious energy to Huntsville. With over 45 years of history, the GRAMMY-winning ensemble is celebrated for transforming the brass band genre, blending jazz, funk, R&B, and soul into a genre-defying sound they describe as “musical gumbo.” Their high-octane live shows have earned them a global fan base and collaborations with artists from Modest Mouse to Norah Jones.
On July 17, rising blues phenom Eddie 9V will light up the stage. Known for his raw, vintage-inspired sound and fiery guitar work, Eddie 9V is redefining Southern blues for a new generation.
August 21 welcomes the critically acclaimed rock project Bully. Led by Alicia Bognanno, Bully’s fourth album Lucky For You is her most personal and powerful work yet, filled with anthemic hooks and emotional depth that showcases her continued evolution as one of indie rock’s most distinctive voices.
Prepare for an unforgettable night on September 18 with the viral sensation Saxsquatch. This seven-foot-tall, saxophone-playing sasquatch has taken the internet by storm with funky, sax-driven electronic sets that have gained him over 3 million followers and an international fanbase.
The series concludes with a tribute to rock royalty on October 16, as The Stolen Faces bring the spirit of the Grateful Dead to life. Known for their faithful renditions and vibrant improvisation, this tribute band captures the essence of a live Dead show, making for the perfect finale to the 2025 season.
