Brit Floyd – the world’s greatest Pink Floyd tribute show – is bringing its most ambitious and biggest production yet to Greenville: a special 40^th anniversary celebration of Pink Floyd’s iconic rock opera, The Wall.

Released in November 1979, The Wall remains one of the biggest-selling albums of all time and a major moment in rock music history. As well as performing highlights from The Wall, the new Brit Floyd production will include songs from Pink Floyd’s classic albums The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Division Bell, and more.

Faithfully recreating the scale and pomp of the final 1994 Division Bell tour, complete with a stunning multi-million-dollar light show, Brit Floyd has truly become a phenomenon, widely regarded as the world's greatest live tribute to Pink Floyd. A Brit Floyd show is as close as fans will get to experiencing the magnificence of the original Pink Floyd live shows.

The great ones endure, and Gladys Knight – known as the “Empress of Soul” – has long been one of the greatest. Very few singers over the last 50 years have matched her unassailable artistry. This seven-time Grammy^® winner has enjoyed #1 hits in pop, gospel, R&B, and adult contemporary, and has triumphed in film, television, and live performance.

Gladys Knight & The Pips debuted their first album in 1960, when Knight was just 16. With Knight singing lead and The Pips providing lush harmonies and graceful choreography, the group went on to achieve icon status. Top 20 hits, like “Every Beat of My Heart,” “Letter Full of Tears,” “I Heard it Through the Grapevine,” and “If I Were Your Woman,” set the stage for an amazing run. Top 10 gold-certified singles like “Neither One of Us (Wants to be the First to Say Goodbye),” “I’ve Got to Use My Imagination,” “Best Thing to Ever Happen to Me,” and the #1 smash “Midnight Train to Georgia” established Gladys Knight & The Pips as the premiere pop/R&B vocal ensemble in the world.

In 1995, Knight earned her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and the next year, Gladys Knight & The Pips were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 1998, she and The Pips were presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame. In 2004, Knight received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual BET Awards ceremony.

In 2014, Knight released the inspirational album Where My Heart Belongs, which won an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Gospel Album. Fall of 2015 marked the release of her first mainstream dance single – “Just A Little” – in nearly 20 years. No stranger to performing, she appeared in season 14 of Dancing with the Stars and made the finale of 2019’s hit The Masked Singer.

Four-time Grammy^® Award winner Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit are touring in support of their album The Nashville Sound (winner of Grammys for Best Americana and Best American Roots Song for “If We Were Vampires”).

Isbell has become one the most respected songwriters of his generation, with a penchant for articulating some of the deepest human emotions and creating poignant narratives inspired by the working class. He was recently featured in Rolling Stone Magazine’s “The New Classics” and The New York Times Magazine’s “25 Songs That Tell Us Where Music Is Going," and appeared on the acclaimed AXS TV program Off Camera with Sam Jones. He also wrote the song “Maybe It’s Time” from the 2018 hit movie A Star Is Born.

Isbell and the mighty 400 Unit - Derry deBorja (keyboards), Chad Gamble (drums), Jimbo Hart (bass), and Sadler Vaden (guitar) - have become one of the strongest live acts on the road today.

Under the spell of the desert sky, and with beautiful music perfuming the air, the band brings the town to life in unexpected and tantalizing ways. Even the briefest visit can stay with you forever.

The cast of world-class performers is led by award-winning Israeli actor Sasson Gabay, star of the original film and the Broadway production, and Chilina Kennedy, known best for her historic run as Carole King in Broadway’s Beautiful – The Carole King Musical.

With a Tony- and Grammy-winning score that seduces your soul and sweeps you off your feet, and featuring thrillingly talented onstage musicians, The Band’s Visitrejoices in the way music makes us laugh, makes us cry, and ultimately, brings us together.

Dr. Kristin Pressley takes a deep dive into the history, inspiration, and people who bring each compelling story to life on the stage.

“Gutsy, gritty bluegrass songs.” - The Tennessean 

“You can call it power-bluegrass or country soul, but whatever you call it, Nashville’s SteelDrivers have bushels of it.” - The Philadelphia Inquirer 

The SteelDrivers are a Grammy^® Award-winning band from Nashville, TN, braiding bluegrass roots with new threads of country, soul, and other contemporary influences to create an unapologetic hybrid that is old as the hills but fresh as the morning dew. “Blue Side of the Mountain,” from their self-titled debut album garnered their first Grammy nomination in the Best Country Performance category. Their sophomore album, Reckless, received two nominations, one for Best Bluegrass Album and another for Best Country Performance for “Where Rainbows Never Die.” The band’s third album, Hammer Down, subsequently climbed all the way up to number one on the Billboard Bluegrass charts. The highly-acclaimed fourth album, The Muscle Shoals Recording, garnered the group that long elusive Grammy win for Best Bluegrass Album. The SteelDrivers’ brand of bluegrass – intense, dark, poetic, and inescapably human – is a refreshing reminder of the timeless power of string band music.

Ella cannot say no. As a baby, she received a magical ‘gift’ from her fairy godmother that forces her to obey everyone – all the time. This gift, which Ella keeps secret from those around her, ultimately becomes a dangerous vulnerability.

As she grows, Ella tires of the inability to follow her own will and sets out on a quest to rid herself of this ‘gift’. Along the way, her bravery, intelligence and selflessness helps her realize that she alone has the power to set herself free.

This story of strength and perseverance in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles is a fun, warm and empowering journey that will encourage children of all ages to find – and use – their voice.

Grammy^®-winning duo Amy Ray and Emily Saliers are Indigo Girls.

The power of unity has been an Indigo Girls calling card ever since they burst into the spotlight with their 1989 self-titled breakout album. Since then, the band has recorded 14 studio albums, racked up a slew of gold and platinum certifications, and spent decades touring. Their catalog contains contemporary classic songs like “Galileo,” “Closer To Fine,” “Get out the Map,” and “Least Complicated.” They are the only duo with Top 40 titles on the Billboard 200 in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s.

NPR’s Mountain Stage called the group “one of the finest folk duos of all time.” Rolling Stone said they are “ideal duet partners. Their voices soar and swoop as one, alternately raucous and soothing. When they sing together, they radiate a sense of shared purpose that adds muscle to their lanky, deeply-felt folk-tinged pop songs.” The New York Timesraved that “gleeful profanities, righteous protest anthems, and impeccable folk songwriting have carried this duo for thirty years.”

The band’s stunning new album, Indigo Girls Live with The University of Colorado Symphony Orchestra, features richly cinematic, larger-than-life arrangements of their songs, performed by a 64-piece orchestra.

Few events in the last decade of space exploration have captured the world’s imagination like NASA’s Mars Exploration Program. The successful deployment of the Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit and Opportunity in 2004 launched a new era of scientific investigation of our nearest planetary neighbor, and marked a personal triumph for Kobie Boykins: he helped design and build the solar arrays that enabled the rovers to keep going long after their planned 90-day life.

As supervisor of the mobility and remote sensing teams for the Mars rover Curiosity, Boykins monitored the headline-making studies of the rover, including evidence that conditions on Mars could once have supported life. In 2013, Boykins received a NASA Exceptional Service Medal, one of the highest honors given to NASA employees and contractors.

Boykins will give students an inside look at what Curiosity and other Mars rovers have discovered on the red planet, as well as what’s ahead for the future of Mars exploration. His boundless enthusiasm for unraveling the mysteries of outer space, and Mars in particular, is infectious.

Schmit, Marcus Miller, and many more. His songs have been recorded by B.B. King, Buddy Guy, the Dixie Chicks, Joe Cocker, Robert Palmer, Tom Jones, Melissa Manchester, Solomon Burke, and the Zac Brown Band, to name a few. His guitar playing has even inspired leading instrument maker Gibson Brands to issue the Keb' Mo' Signature Bluesmaster and Bluesmaster Royale acoustic guitars and Martin Guitars to issue the HD-28KM Keb' Mo' Limited Edition Signature model.

Opening Act: Jontavious Willis 

Every generation or so, a young bluesman bursts onto the scene and sends a jolt through the blues community; Jontavious Willis has that effect on people. The 22-year-old rising multi-instrumentalist will release Spectacular Class in April. The album features dynamic vocals and all types of blues: Delta, Piedmont, Texas, and Gospel. His stand-out fingerpicking, flat-picking, and slide prowess will also be on display. Living legend Taj Mahal has described him as the “Wonderboy” and “the Wunderkind.” In 2015, Mahal asked Willis to play on stage with him, and he opened select shows along the TajMo tour.

Since 2013, Hughes Investments has provided $80,000 in funds to 24 local communities as part of the ELEVATE UPSTATE Community Vibrancy Grant program. The purpose of the ELEVATE UPSTATE Grants is to identify and provide initial funding support for community-based programs that promote community and economic vibrancy in local areas across the Upstate.

Last year’s winners were Ninety Six Movie Night at the Park and the First Annual Charles Townes Art & Technology Experiment. Past winners include public art projects, interactive outdoor education, downtown music, a food truck plaza, and more. The key element is that the proposed initiative will increase community vibrancy and sense of place and benefit the community as a whole.

The 2019 grant period opened on June 1st with an initial interest form due by August 1st and the completed applications due by September 16th. This workshop will guide applicants through the process, with panelists to include past winners.

You’ll hear from Mary Anne Goodman from the Ninety Six Mill Village Association, who successfully applied for a grant to fund a community movie night. You’ll also hear from Coie Switzer and Curtiss Hunter from the Union Environmental Art and Music Festival, who were runners up and received a matching grant—and how they got the support they needed to launch their event a year ahead of schedule.

Thanks to Hughes Investments for their generous support of these community vibrancy initiatives throughout the Upstate!

This group has taken radio and Christian music by storm.  They are quickly positioning themselves as the group to watch.  As we grow to love this wonderful meld of Crabb/Bowling music our sense of their purpose is obvious.  These people love great songs, know how to deliver them, and obviously love God and ministry!
