If you blended Jackopierce, RUN-DMC, Guster, CSNY, and Barenaked Ladies together, you'd have a shadowood smoothie.

The two Treys met when they were around 3 years old in L.A.* They quickly became best friends through sports and other common interests. Little did they know that later in life there would be music in their future.

They both started playing guitar in college in different bands, but quickly came together and have been playing together for over 15 years now.

During the early years, they would play many times a month at all hours of the night. Now that they have more “Day Job” responsibilities and 3 beautiful little girls to love and care for (Trey T, 2 and Trey E, 1), the two Treys (Eiland and Tunnell) are concentrating on song writing and getting the word out that they are serious about it.

While the light may have dimmed on their dream to play Madison Square Garden, they still dream of hearing someone else playing their songs there.

So, a new journey starts for them. They still love to play live and will do it in a heartbeat, but song writing is their passion. Take a listen and tell them what you think. They love feedback (if it’s good).

Saturday May 9th

Rooted in the red dirt spirit of Americana, Michael Jones brings a voice of honesty and heart to every stage he steps onto. Blending storytelling, country soul, and a touch of Southern grit, his songs capture the quiet truths of everyday life, love, loss, and the miles in between them all.

Armed with his guitar and a sound shaped by artists like John Prine, Jason Isbell and the Turnpike Troubadours, Jones creates an atmosphere that feels equal parts front porch and backroom bar. His live shows are intimate, conversational, and filled with moments that remind you why you fell in love with live music in the first place.

In a day and age where we’ve drifted from genuine human connection and the humanity within our music, Jones stands firmly in the opposite direction, reminding audiences that a song can still make you feel something real.

Based in Smyrna, Georgia, Michael performs under the banner Real Music for Real People: a simple promise that every lyric, every laugh, and every note comes straight from the heart.

Friday May 22nd

An inspiring high school graduation performance and $80 were all it took to get singer/songwriter Kurt Thomas hooked on the music business. And now, the small town country boy from Dahlonega, GA has recorded four CD’s and opened for some of the biggest names in country music including Kenny Chesney, Brooks & Dunn, LeAnn Rimes, Gary Alan, Darius Rucker, Zac Brown Band, Ronnie Milsap and Josh Turner. Kurt grew up enjoying the close-knit country life in Dahlonega where he heard local musician, Jay Drummonds, sing “Small Town” by John Cougar Mellencamp at his high school graduation. At that moment, he decided that’s what he wanted to do with his life and after graduation; he bought his first guitar for $80 and started his musical career. Eventually, Kurt started his own band, Kurt Thomas and the Small Town Band, in honor of the night he decided to make music his life and to honor the way of life that he had been raised to love.
