Opening Act - Cameron Whitcomb

Cameron Whitcomb brings a unique perspective to songwriting, deeply influenced by his own life experiences, including his battles and journey in the music industry. His approach to songwriting reflects a raw and authentic narrative style, drawing listeners into his world through vivid storytelling and emotional honesty. His latest single, "The Devil I've Seen," exemplifies this unique approach, delving into the profound and challenging topic of sexual abuse. Through his music, Whitcomb offers a glimpse into the complexities of his life and the darker aspects of human experiences, inviting audiences to connect with the more profound, often unspoken realities. His ability to weave personal tales into compelling musical narratives sets him apart in the songwriting landscape, resonating with listeners who find solace and understanding in his words.

Opening Act - Red Shahan

Red Shahan is a future American legend with potential to conquer the world, least his wife, three kids, and close friends know so. Born in Bluff Dale, Texas back sometime in the early eighties, Red is an avid outdoorsman and dedicated Leatherman owner. He loves a good pachanga and can do several jumping jacks in a row. He used to rodeo at Western Texas College and got his start singing country songs in Lubbock, Texas. Heavily influenced by AC/DC and the Indigo Girls, his new songs and record sound nothing like them at all. Red is the real deal. Only a fool would miss an opportunity to dive into his songs.
