Andrew Crocker
Andrew Crocker grew up on country music and never really left it, even when he wanders off into Prince or James Taylor mid-set. Been doing this over a decade around the Upstate now, bars and weddings and the Greenville Country Music Fest twice over, once opening for Lonestar. Soulful voice, eclectic setlist, the kind of guy who can follow Alan Jackson with Queen and make it feel natural. Still writing his own stuff between the covers.
Cody Gentry
Americana artist rooted in the Upstate.
Cody Gentry grew up in the Upstate, the first song he ever learned was John Prine's "Please Don't Bury Me," and it shows. His debut album, "Blue Ridge Gold," was recorded in Nashville and produced by Dean Miller, paying homage to the Blue Ridge foothills and the storytellers who raised him. Genuinely well traveled too, five years playing music halls, bars, and coffeehouses across the Southeast before landing back home.
Benny Hagerty
Benny Hagerty plays folk, blues, and bluegrass like a man who has no interest in being anything other than exactly himself.
Benny Hagerty picked up a guitar at thirteen and never really put it back down. The Greenville singer-songwriter plays Appalachian folk and blues — intimate and acoustic. He spent years playing local restaurants and private events before going full-time in 2024. Debut single "Quittin’ Time" in March of that year. "Gamblin’ Blues" two months later.

Darby Wilcox
Ten years deep in the Upstate scene with a debut album that sounds like a decade's worth of living distilled into something raw and unhurried — Darby Wilcox is the real thing.
Darby Wilcox has been doing this for a decade in Greenville, and she has earned every bit of the praise she gets. The singer-songwriter and self-proclaimed Mayor of Babetown — a community she founded on the radically simple premise of babes supporting babes — plays that Americana which pulls directly from the Joss Stone and Janis Joplin end of the dial: soulful, direct, tender. Usually found with The Peep Show backing her up the way a good band should, dynamically flowing as one. Her debut album 11:11, in 2018. EP It's OK in 2023. Fall for Greenville. The Brooks Center. The Radio Room. A decade of showing up and meaning it, and she's still just getting started.

Reedy River String Band
Three writers, three singers, three-part harmony — playing boot-stomping Appalachian roots music from Greenville
Three writers, three singers, three-part harmony — Reedy River String Band play the kind of boot-stomping Appalachian music that makes you feel like you've been missing something your whole life, which you have, and they've been making that case around the world.
