Josh Sanders:
Josh Sanders was exposed to a plethora of musical genres from the likes of country, rock, blues, R&B, and bluegrass. His love for music and eagerness to soak up as much knowledge as he could, had him hooked on the idea of learning to play guitar, as well as eventually adding songwriter to his resumé. Those earlier influences played a vital role in developing Josh's sound and style, and when paired with his unparalleled stage presence, makes for an experience fit for once-in-a-lifetime verbiage. Sanders continues to write, play, and create music that touches and inspires others by tapping into his musical roots, and the journey has yet to show an end.

Opening Act - Carolina Clay:
Heather Foster is a North Carolina based singer/ songwriter and the mind behind “Carolina Clay”. Foster performs and writes music with influences ranging from outlaw country, Americana, and southern rock. She is a story teller. Her lyrics offer transparency into her own life as well as the ideation of a lifestyle in the Carolinas.
