Saturday, August 3rd at 5:00 p.m. – Matt Koziol & Brooke Lee
On August 3rd, the Concert Series will welcome co-headliners and emerging country artists, Matt Koziol and Brooke Lee. New Jersey native Matt Koziol is reminiscent of a barrel-aged bourbon. From the first sip, Koziol’s voice cuts through with a palpable heat. His songs have been distilled and drip with tradition, authenticity, and a raw quality that could only come from a man that has seen more than 10 years on the road as a hired gun. Koziol has played shows with former Stone Pier performers, including 49 Winchester and Hailey Whitters, and has a growing resume of festival appearances. His recent singles feature Vince Gill and Drake White, with more releases planned for 2024.
Born and raised in North Carolina, Brooke Lee was born with music intertwined in her life. Her grandparents were pastors and introduced her first opportunity to perform through worship leading and singing in church. Brooke would later discover her strong passion for classic rock and country, influenced by the likes of Joan Jett, Stevie Nicks, Janis Joplin, and Dolly Parton. Her signature powerhouse smoky vocal and free spirit attitude resonates with audiences of all ages, evident from the reaction to her debut EP that was released last summer. Brooke will get the boot stomping started at 5:00 p.m.
Sunday, September 1st at 5:00 p.m. – The Band of Heathens w/ Cory Waller & The Wicked Things
The Band of Heathens, an Austin-based rock and roll band, will headline the season finale on Sunday, September 1. From day one, this group has remained proudly, fiercely independent – turning down label offers, maintaining complete ownership of their catalog, and building their audience one show at a time. Their inspirations range from The Beatles and the Rolling Stones to Bob Dylan and The Allman Brothers. With almost 20 years on the road, their recent successes include a gold record for their cover of Levon Helm’s song “Hurricane,” a national television debut on CBS Saturday Morning, along with a Grand Ole Opry debut in 2023. They also released their ninth studio album, Simple Things, in March of last year. Cory Waller and The Wicked Things will open the September show, starting at 5:00 p.m. These budding talents in the Midwest country scene put hard work and honesty at the center of their sound and songwriting. Taking inspiration from Jason Isbell, John Mellencamp and Blackberry Smoke, lead singer & songwriter Cory forges his own music path with candid portrayals built from years of life’s ups and downs. Backed by a band of his favorite heroes and friends, the group aims to deliver a new and fresh sound to accompany this moment in time.
