Entertainers

Pat Green

Pat Green

At the Main Stage on Sat, Sep 3rd from 9:30 pm to 11:00 pm

For a man whose new album begins with a powerful song called "Footsteps of Our Fathers," Pat Green has blazed his own trail in a way that few artists today can claim. Even with all the artistic and popular success he has experienced along the way, What I'm For is the stirring sound of Pat Green arriving as a major American singer-songwriter who has managed to make his own way in country music and beyond. To borrow a memorable phrase from the man's biggest hit to date, "Wave On Wave" of new faces have come along, but few have ever made such a vivid impression, both as a recording artist and performer as Pat Green.

Ronnie Milsap

Ronnie Milsap

At the Main Stage on Sun, Sep 4th from 8:00 pm to 9:30 pm

It’s rare that an artist with more than four decades of accolades to his credit would continue to seek out new challenges, but that’s precisely what country soul legend Ronnie Milsap has done with Then Sings My Soul: 24 Favorite Hymns and Gospel Favorites, his first foray into gospel music. The unflaggingly uplifting double-disc finds Milsap revisiting his North Carolina childhood for a collection of songs that capture a remarkable spirit -- one sure to resonate with listeners regardless of their musical and cultural backgrounds.

The Triumphs

The Triumphs

At the Round Up Hall on Sat, Sep 3rd from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm

This nine piece, Rosenberg-based band has roots that go back to the early days of rock 'n roll and also launched the career of 5-time Grammy award winner B.J. Thomas. They had several #1 hits on Houston's KILT top 40 Survey in the early 60's ("Lazy Man", "I Know It's Wrong", "I've Got a Feeling", "Billie and Sue"), recorded the still popular (and still played nightly at the Garner dance pavilion) "Garner State Park", and, of course, recorded the #1 song in the nation in 1966 - "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" - just prior to B.J. beginning his solo career.

No Justice

No Justice

At the Main Stage on Fri, Sep 2nd from 9:30 pm to 11:00 pm

Since 2005, the name No Justice has become a familiar fixture on Texas radio, charting seven Top 10 singles and a pair of No. 1s in only a four-year span. During that time, the five-piece from Stillwater, Oklahoma also became a polished touring machine, playing nearly 200 shows a year and every square inch of roadhouse in the Lone Star State and then some. After recording three albums and building up a formidable grassroots following, No Justice lead singer and guitarist Steve Rice realized that even a state the size of Texas has its borders. It was time for No Justice to introduce themselves to the rest of the country.

Kyle Bennett Band

Kyle Bennett Band

At the Main Stage on Fri, Sep 2nd from 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm

Sometimes the best chapters of our lives are the ones we write ourselves. Country artist Kyle Bennett is doing just that as he comes into his own with his first solo project to be released later this year. With a new wife, new baby and a new band, Kyle is excited to let his music reflect this new chapter in his life.

Charla Corn

Charla Corn

At the German Czech - Pavilion on Sat, Sep 3rd from 8:00 pm to 1:00 am

A red dirt roostertail, slack-jawed crowds and more than a few broken hearts lie in the wake of Charla Corn as she zigzags her way through her home state of Texas.  After a year of supporting some of the region’s biggest acts such as Pat Green, Kevin Fowler, Roger Creager, the Randy Rogers Band, Wade Bowen, Aaron Watson, and the Josh Abbott Band to name a few, she has hit the pavement with her own band, The Trainwrecks, taking her on her “Take It Off! Tour” to as many lone-star honky-tonks and dancehalls as will let her through their swinging doors.
