Hailing from all corners of the country, Kind Hearted Strangers began in the foothills of Colorado- where an impromptu open mic performance by songwriter Marc Townes quickly evolved into a dynamic full band capable of bridging the gap between all out rock n’ roll and harmony-driven acoustic roots. The band’s newest LP entitled “Now.here” (2023) features a collaboration with visual artist/painter Dylan Lynch. This immersive project found the group working in a shared Richmond, VA warehouse space for 5 days. With no prepared material, the artists intentionally put pressure on themselves to create and deliver a Live Concert & Art Exhibition at the end of the week. The resulting album contains brand new material that was recorded live with the same raw energy and passion KHS has been delivering across the country during their busiest year of touring to date.

Charleston rock outfit, The Simplicity, was formed by John Bias, Tommy Merritt, and Drew “Easy Money” Lewis with the goal to conquer every stage they step foot on. Influenced by rock n roll titans such as The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, and The Velvet Underground, this trio favors a dynamic approach in their performances, skirting the line between fast and loose rock songs and dramatic ballads. Their debut record “DAHLIN’”was recorded in Charleston, SC with the help of Wolfgang Zimmerman (producer of Band of Horses, Susto and Brave Baby) and is available on all major streaming services.

* Show is 21+. Attendees under 21 must be accompanied by a parent & will be subject to a $5 surcharge. The surcharge must be paid in cash at the door on the day of the event.
