GEORGE TERRY &amp; THE ZEALOTS George Terry AKA George Trouble sings with carefully crafted phrases and melodies.
The songs speak of populist, mythic, historical and personal stories. They weave an imaginative lyrical landscape with a wide palette, ranging from folk, punk, rock, rockabilly, reggae and ska, to surf and honest country blues. Featuring Aaron Price’s deft musicianship The Zealots offer an exquisite distillation of the American songbook.
GT is releasing two records in 2026. His band, The Zealots, is proud to release their fifth record- “Entanglement”, this spring on Bob Dylan’s 85th birthday at The Grey Eagle.
The band will play a set of Dylan and the new record as well. George’s second solo album is primarily acoustic and features “Dirty Side of Helene”, a folk lament in the wake of the disaster. GT returns to touring in ’26 with a deeper conviction to sharing the narratives of all who navigate the recovery from Hurricane Helene.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/142618/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets</a> &amp; More Info

Finalists at the International Folk Music Awards 2025 – Album of the Year”
Merging the inspiration of 60’s and 70’s inspired Americana/Folk, with a distinct Celtic Lilt, The Heart Collectors have spent the last 8 years ‘collecting hearts’ of international audiences through heartfelt ballads, toe-tapping jigs, and “Epic Folk” anthems. With comparison to iconic artists of the Woodstokian era of folk, including Fleetwood Mac, Crosby Stills Nash &amp; Young, Loreena Mckennit and The Seekers, The Heart Collectors combine four part vocal harmony with delicate keys, soaring cello, rolling Banjo, sparkling mandolin, intricate guitar, haunting cello, to create a sound that resonates from bluegrass-inflected folk to ethereal soundscapes. From acoustic harmony lead ballads to Bowie-esque sonic soundscapes, Australian four piece ‘Epic Folk’ group The Heart Collectors capture the essence of inspiration, honesty of love, and the nature of the cosmos in their music.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/145490/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

SEATED SHOW LIMITED NUMBER OF PREMIUM SEATING TICKETS AVAILABLE
ANDREW DUHON Born, raised, shaped, and inspired by his hometown of New Orleans, Louisiana, Andrew Duhon tours performing songs that are as much about recognizing our shared stories as they are about telling his own.
Rounding out the touring trio are two of his most trusted collaborators—Myles Weeks (James Hunter Six, Eric Lindell) on bass and Jim Kolacek (Feufollett) on drums.
Blending the gritty, bluesy, folksy, country sounds of his home with the experience of traversing the country and immersing himself in the broad array of cultures across the American landscape, Andrew’s music creates real connection between former strangers through song. As he puts it, “When a song written by a stranger heals you, even in the smallest way, that’s a connection beyond entertainment.”
Andrew has shared stages with Guster, Blind Pilot, and Amos Lee, among others, and has performed at major festivals across the US including New Orleans Jazz &amp; Heritage Festival, Milwaukee Summerfest, Bonnaroo, and Americanafest.
His music has been featured in Rolling Stone Magazine, Jam In The Van, Meat Church, as well as in Glide Magazine, No Depression, and American Songwriter.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/142620/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp;&nbsp;More Info</a>

2024 International Blues Challenge Band Winner, 2025 Best emerging artist album blues music award for revelation “Piper &amp; the Hard Times combine the sensibility and flair of vintage blues bands with the entertainment savvy and edge of modern rockers … one of America’s premier new blues groups.” (Ron Wynn/Nashville Scene)
Piper &amp; the Hard Times delivers intense, eclectic and rhythmically dynamic blues-based music flavored with R&amp;B, soul and rock. The band has an instrumental prowess that enables them to improvise with flair, while still creating music that has a melodic appeal that can immediately connect with audiences who want both a high degree of musical competence and songs with strong grooves and catchy hooks. In January 2024 they took top honors in the band division at the prestigious International Blues Challenge held in Memphis, Tennessee. The core of the band, Al “Piper” Green, Steve Eagon, and Dave Colella have been playing and writing together for over 20 years. Over the course of three days in February 2024, Nashville-based Piper &amp; the Hard Times held court in the legendary Ronnie’s Place at Soundstage Studios in Nashville to record Revelation. The album features a collection of 12 original songs deeply anchored in the blues from the New Orleans-flavored groove of “Trouble Man” to the Texas shuffle “The Hard Times”, the funk-rock “Heart for Sale”, and the slow ache and emotion of “Twenty Long Years.”
One of America’s premier blues-roots artists, Piper &amp; the Hard Times has been delighting audiences across the South for nearly 20 years.. When you listen to their new album, you’ll hear poignant, inspired “from the soul” music from these talented players who love making music together. You can hear that energy and vitality in Revelation which debuted at #1 on the Billboard chart the week of August 27th, 2014.
Piper states, “I’ve never been prouder of anything we’ve ever done. The new album captured us in every way imaginable”<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/145491/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View&nbsp;Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

– LIMITED PATIO SEATING IS FIRST COME FIRST SERVE ABE REID Abe Reid is a North Carolina musician and one of the modern keepers of the Piedmont roots music tradition. Born in Forsyth County and raised in Statesville, Reid began playing guitar at a young age, developing a deep connection to the region’s historic finger-style traditions. His musical education came directly from the source. As a young player, he spent time with legendary Carolina musicians Guitar Gabriel and Cootie Stark, learning not only guitar technique but also the storytelling and spirit behind traditional American music. In the 1990s, Reid immersed himself in the life of a working musician, busking on the streets of New Orleans before returning to North Carolina’s music scene. He later helped form the roots band The Blue Rags, known for energetic performances and traditional sounds. Reid gained international recognition when he won the International Blues Challenge in Memphis—becoming the first solo performer to win the competition. Today, Abe Reid continues to perform, teach, and share the music of the American South, passing on knowledge learned from older musicians and decades on the road.
