    Wildwood Revival Unveils Full Performer Lineup

    Wildwood Revival, a thoughtfully curated and intimate gathering and festival, is set to return this September 27th through 29th on historic Cloverleaf Farm just outside of Athens, Georgia.  Celebrating its sixth anniversary, the event embodies the magic of a Deep South setting, out into the wildwood while celebrating Athens’ storied music scene.
    Screen Shot 2019-05-09 at 12.31.44 AM
    From Country, Blues and early Jazz to Gospel, Soul, Metal and Rock n’ Roll, Hip Hop and beyond, this isn’t your every day festival.  Exploring music, food and friendship, this coveted festival is a little bit country, a little bit rock n’ roll, and everything in between.
    With tickets on sale now, the full lineup of performers for 2019 has been released. Festival goers can enjoy engaging sets from an array of artists including: Lucinda Williams, Shovels & Rope, Mandolin Orange, Son Volt, Langhorne Slim and The Lost at Last Band, Rayland Baxter, Rebirth Brass Band, The Texas Gentlemen, Charley Crockett, Lilly Hiatt, T. Hardy Morris, Super Doppler, Cedric Burnside, Illiterate Light, Revel in Dimes, and Georgia Mountain String Band. Performers take the stage in the Pecan Grove as well as inside the farm’s open-air barn. Beyond the stage lights, there are late-night picking sessions around the campfire where the best stories are often sung.

    The festival also features a dynamic artisan market with vintage clothing, antiques, printmakers, woodworkers, 1800’s-era tintype photography, leather makers, handmade crafts and more.  Celebrating what’s old is new again, Wildwood Revival  embraces its history as a cultural revival; making it a true antithesis to what people have come to think of festivals. Around the grounds, festival goers can experience great food, cold craft beers from Creature Comforts Brewing Co., and meals made with local produce.  In addition, this is a plastic-free experience with no single use cups or bottled waters, with YETI offering festival goers stylish drink ware options. All the water is filtered, cold and free.

    Camping is encouraged for the full experience, but if guests prefer a king bed and AC to a shady patch of grass, there are plenty of lodging options in nearby Athens. If camping is your cup of tea, there’s plenty more to learn about camping and the outdoors from the camping authority, Techie Camper.

    Screen Shot 2019-05-09 at 12.30.55 AM
    All tickets to Wildwood Revival include three full days of music.  VIP tickets include access to a 7,000- square foot Antebellum Mansion that includes gourmet catered meals, complimentary alcohol, private restrooms and an outdoor courtyard.

  • The Whiskey Gentry Announces the 10th Annual Merry Y’allTide Celebration

    The Whiskey Gentry Announces the 10th Annual Merry Y’allTide Celebration

    An Atlanta institution, The Whiskey Gentry has announced it will be returning to the Variety Playhouse on Dec. 8, 2018 for the 10th Annual Merry Y’alltide Celebration.

    The Whiskey Gentry

    Performance to Mark Final Performance by The Whiskey Gentry

    The announcement comes with the news that this will officially be the final performance by The Whiskey Gentry. Recent months have seen the band take fewer engagements, as lead singer, Lauren Morrow has emerged with a new sound and self-titled solo EP. Rolling Stone profiled Morrow in its latest issue as one of their “10 New Country Artists You Need To Know” creating further buzz to already exciting news.

    “When Jason and I started The Whiskey Gentry, I don’t think we ever imagined how incredible this journey would be. We’ve toured the world, played music with some amazing people, and most importantly, created a family with a group of guys that we love like brothers,” — The Whiskey Gentry lead singer, Lauren Morrow.

    “Over the years, some of us have gotten married, had kids, moved to different cities, and it makes it harder to be a collective unit like it was,” Morrow said. “Jason and I have chosen to keep moving with our careers under my name, but no matter what, we will always have these songs, this family of musicians, and all of the incredible memories we’ve created together over the last decade.”

    The Whiskey Gentry2

    The final performance of The Whiskey Gentry will be accompanied by several special guests who will help get the crowd warmed up for this spirited evening. In addition, full details on the special guests along with comparative poster art will be revealed in the coming weeks.

    Advance tickets for the 10th Annual Merry Y’alltide Celebration are on sale now, starting at $20. Based on availability, tickets may be available at the Variety Playhouse box office the day of the show. Tickets are available online at www.ticketfly.com.

    This is an all ages show and doors open at 7:00 p.m. Furthermore, the 10th Annual Merry Y’alltide Celebration is presented by Zero Mile.

    The Whiskey Gentry is (was) Lauren Morrow, Jason Morrow, Chesley Lowe, Sam Griffin, Michael Smith, Rurik Nunan, Kenny Lambert and Nico Lembo.
