TDawg Presents is thrilled to bring you a true family reunion for this 19th and final installment of TDawg’s Back Porch Hootenanny, April 1-2 at Cherokee Farms! The Hoots have always been about a special relationship between musicians, patrons, and Cherokee Farms – such an idyllic setting for some incredibly intimate and phenomenal music. You can expect some fantastic collaborations, bonfire jams, and a welcome jolt to the spring that you need!
The 2016 lineup is almost complete, but here is the list to date. I hope to have the complete lineup within the next two weeks.
Let’s go out in style with one, y’all. Everyone is excited to be a part, and it promises to be a period of non-stop fun! PLEASE spread the good word – invite your friends through FB, word-of-mouth, however you can. HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTENANNY!!!

Below are two videos, the first one from the Rumpke Mountain Boys at their NYE 2014 performance, and the second being Deep Blue Sun’s set from last year’s edition that included a version of Morning Dew that melted me. Enjoy!
So many amazing performers have graced the stage at TDawg’s Back Porch Hootenanny, and this year is certainly no exception to what we take for granted at these events! The Friday night showcase with Dangermuffin commences festivities, and Saturday will leave you dizzy with musical interludes spinning around your head all day long, while enjoying the intimate confines of Starbridge Event Center. Please read on to view some videos of the bands!
Strung Like A Horse(10:30-midnight) is going to take the 18th edition of the Hootenanny out with a bang! Check out this great video shot at Cherokee Farms in LaFayette, GA, of the song “Gypsy Jane”.
TDawg Presents welcomes back Packway Handle Band(8:30PM-10PM) to the Hootenanny stage for the second time! This Athens, GA-based quintet really grips you as they make their way through their set with genuine songwriting and tight instrumentation, single-mic or all-electric. You don’t know what you’ll get sometimes!! Check out this clip from Eddie’s Attic in Decatur, Packway Handle Band performing “I Wish I hadn’t Done It”.
Please welcome Jason Kenney (6:15PM-7:45PM) to the Hootenanny stage for the first time! This incredible singer/songwriter comes from just down the road in Dahlonega, and you feel the local roots in his music. Pure and true is his music, and you’ll see for yourself in the video for “Turn This Sorrow Into Joy”, title track from his latest album.
Atlanta’s own Cajun masters Hair of the Dog bring their rockin’ sound to the Tree Stage at the Hootenanny for the first time! Trust me, they’re the real deal. Been around a long time playing what they love, and pedal steel maestro Bill Fleming will keep his rig up there for the rest of the evening so you never know what will happen with all those great musicians gathered all night long! Check out this raw yet rockin’ clip from a neighborhood party (I was there!) featuring HoD performing “Leona Had A Party”. Your whole family will be kickin it during this set!
The Higher Choir (1:45PM-3:15PM) has been climbing the ladder for several years now, and folks, they very well might be reaching a moment of reckoning, in a state of mind where their Southern rock sound touches your bones and your soul! They wowed the crowd on the Lynyrd Skynyrd Cruise, have been packing venues around the Southeast, and as you see from this video, “The Working Title” from their CD Release party in 2013, it’s a kickin’ sound that has you boogey’in! I first saw these folks at the Wheelbarrow Fest in Reynoldstown a few years back, and they blew me away!
Performing on the Music On Main Street (MOMS) stage, Gibson Wilbanks Band is going to bring two sets (3:15PM-4PM, 5:30PM-6:15PM) , one after The Higher Choir and the second after Hair of the Dog, that are gonna have you groovin’ even more so. The interlay of slide and rhythm by both Carly Gibson and BJ Wilbanks, along with at-large artist Richie Jones on drums and the insane harmonica of Brad Bauman, will make these two sets ones you don’t want to miss! The soulfulness comes through loud and clear on this video, enjoy!
I don’t think there is any doubt that the 4th Annual Atlanta’s Holiday Hootenanny, much like the previous editions, is going to be the finest show of year! Get your advance tickets to ensure your presence at a Terminal West that night and know you’re supporting a great cause in Atlanta Habitat!
