Music Line-Up:

The High Divers
The High Divers are new to Charleston, having moved there together last fall with the plan to start a band, and hit the road, already in mind. They seem to have a hit-the-ground-running mentality and a good situation where they’re already integrated into the Charleston music community. Charleston is a great fit for The High Divers, with its melting pot of talented musicians from across South Carolina and the country. The band pulls from a variety of classic influences from distinctly American rock n’ roll bands like Tom Petty and Wilco, to modern influences like Dr. Dog and Father John Misty. In addition to playing with The High Divers, some members also perform in Johnny Delaware’s live band.
                               
Ashes of Old Ways
Ashes of Old Ways is a collaborative musical venture featuring singer/songwriter/producer Dave Britt and singer/songwriter Bobby Sutton from Columbia, SC and Charleston, SC. These two artists have enjoyed success in the southeast with their solo careers, but feel that their musical message is even more powerful when combined. Between these songwriters is a catalog of over 50 unique, original songs. The act recently completed a successful southeastern tour and will be returning to the road in the summer of 2016.
