About the Bands:
The Creekers
Hailing from Leslie County in Eastern Kentucky, with their newest member joining from Indiana, The Creekers blend Bluegrass influences with country and pop favorites you’re sure to recognize. The group features Tanner Horton (vocals, lead guitar), Allen Hacker (vocals, rhythm guitar), Jagger Bowling (bass, backup vocals), Ashton Bowling (cajon), Scott Sutton (banjo, backup vocals), and Anna Blanton (fiddle). Over the past few years, they’ve built a strong following across Eastern Kentucky and Tennessee, performing at bars, festivals, and supporting acts such as Cole Chaney, Nicholas Jamerson, Brother Smith, and Rhonda Vincent. Expect an infectious energy on stage that will keep you moving from start to finish.
Tailgate Revival
Since forming in 2016, Nashville-based Tailgate Revival has evolved from a cover band into a nationally recognized touring country act. Known for their electrifying performances, the group seamlessly shifts from high-energy barn-burners to intimate acoustic sets, always delivering camaraderie, spirited singalongs, and memorable showmanship. With a repertoire spanning iconic ’90s country hits and original tracks inspired by legends like Garth Brooks, Joe Diffie, Blake Shelton, and Jon Pardi, they’ve shared stages with powerhouse names like Lynyrd Skynyrd, Travis Tritt, Lainey Wilson, Trace Adkins, Riley Green, and Clay Walker. Tailgate Revival guarantees a crowd-pleasing performance that embodies the best of country-meets-rock.
