Showcasing Performers...

20 RIDE
America's # 1 Zac Brown Tribute Band, 20 RIDE, is American Country/Folk music at its finest. The first tribute of it's kind, they are taking audiences by storm.
AUTHENTIC VOCALS, AUTHENTIC MUSIC, an AUTHENTIC BAND. This is not a wig wearing, lip syncing, pretending to play tribute. These are real players, doing the great music the way Zac does at all his concerts. Up close and personal, moving, and fun!  From traditional country, to Caribbean rhythm, to sultry bedroom ballads, 20 RIDE brings all the best Zac has to offer.
Comprised of good ol' boys from upstate Carolina, these guys know how to entertain. With an insane work ethic like the real Zac Brown Band, they have a unique ability to include everyone in their show. Performing for years in a cover band, their experience performing together shows. Great harmonies and tight musicianship make 20 RIDE perfect for outdoor festivals, cool rehearsal dinner parties, killer clubs, rockin' pool parties or anywhere people love to have fun. 20 Ride is represented by Scott Toole with East Coast Entertainment.

Shem Creek Boogie Band
Shem Creek Boogie Band, SCBB, encompasses everything we've come to love and appreciate about Carolina beach music.  They began playing weekly gigs in 1991 at the legendary Trawler Restaurant situated along Shem Creek in the lowcountry and thus the name. Band members have composed, recorded and performed with various bands and musicians over the years and have a broad repertoire of classic rock, blues, country, soul and pop.  Their music and performance is the perfect mix for festival and event crowds.  Shem Creek Boogie Band is represented by Bubba Taylor with FatCat Productions.

Reid Soria
For recording artist, actor, and performer Reid Soria, Autism Sings is the culmination of years spent overcoming the odds.  Diagnosed with autism at the age of 3, Reid was never expected to be able to communicate or connect with the world around him.  Now 33, Reid has channeled his talents and sheer grit into an unprecedented story of hope.  In finding his own voice, Reid Soria has found a new voice for autism and is communicating and connecting beyond what was once considered possible.  Reid began performing with a Florida non-profit dedicated to training and providing opportunities for visual and performing artists.  His talents blossomed and soon Reid was being offered solo performance invitations.  His repertoire includes Michael Buble, Journey, Pharrell Williams, and everything in between. Reid Soria is the perfect addition to all family-friendly special events. Reid Soria is represented by Rick Soria with Autism Sings.
