Andy Mckee

Hailing from Kansas in the United States, Andy McKee is a world renowned guitarist best known for his original compositions for steel-string acoustic guitar. Andy has performed as a soloist in over 40 countries around the world, bringing a universal message of music without words.

After being initially intrigued with the electric guitar as a teenager, Andy turned to the steel-string acoustic guitar after discovering the music of modern fingerstyle guitarists like Michael Hedges, Preston Reed, Don Ross and others. “I was so amazed at the possibilities of the acoustic guitar that were revelaed to me by players like Hedges. I loved the idea of exploring alternate tunings and trying to cover rhythmic, harmonic, and melodic ideas at once. I was always quite shy as a kid and I felt like the guitar might be a way for me to say some personal things that were too difficult with words.”

In 2006, Andy’s music was brought to people around the world when his original composition “Drifting” began to go viral on the burgeoning website YouTube. Several of his other pieces like “Rylynn”, “For My Father”, and “Into the Ocean” captured the imagination of viewers as well, receiving millions of views. To date, Andy’s videos have had hundreds of millions of views which in turn have inspired people around the world to play fingerstyle guitar. Many notable players cite him as an influence including Calum Graham, Alexandr Misko, Sungha Jung, and Mike Dawes among others.

The Sadies

The Sadies have played all over the world where, for the last 30 years, they have astonished audiences with their earthy arsenal of roots music, country, spaghetti western, surf, garage rock, psychedelia, and the slippery beast known as alt rock, all with uncanny precision and passion.

Booker T. Jones

Classic Memphis soul — deep grooves, Hammond B3 fire, and the songs that defined an era — come alive with Booker T. Jones: A Stax Revue. This special concert brings together a powerhouse ensemble of musicians and vocalists to celebrate the legendary Stax Records catalog, from “Green Onions” and “Time Is Tight” to classics made famous by Otis Redding, Sam & Dave, Carla Thomas, and more.

As the leader of Booker T. & the M.G.’s and the driving force behind the Stax sound, Booker T. helped shape modern soul music from the inside out. Backed by a dynamic band featuring horns, multiple vocalists, and his signature rhythm section, he guides the evening with music and stories — offering a personal, high-energy journey through one of the most influential songbooks in American history.

A Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, Booker T. remains a master of feel, tone, and groove — bringing both history and electricity to the stage in a show that’s as powerful as it is unforgettable.
