Third Thursday returns with Seth McKay & The Moonshine Rivals.
After a fantastic kickoff to our new summer concert series that we are calling Third Thursday, we’re ready to rock The Courtyard once again!
Our inaugural event in May featured former The Voice contestant Noah Spencer and drew a wonderful crowd to The CAM. Guests enjoyed an evening of live music, great company, and delicious food from The Cluck Truck. Seeing families, friends, and music lovers gathered together reminded us exactly why we launched this series in the first place.
Now we’re excited to invite everyone back on Thursday, June 18 for our second installment of Third Thursday featuring Seth McKay and The Moonshine Rivals.
If you’re looking for authentic regional talent with a sound that blends Appalachian roots and high-energy rock and roll, this is a show you won’t want to miss. The band describes their music this way:
“If you want to hear what the intersection of Appalachian grit and Rock n’ Roll sounds like, you need to be at the front of the stage for Seth McKay and the Moonshine Rivals. Hailing from the VA/TN line, this 5-piece powerhouse is a masterclass in Country Rock with a Southern edge that cuts deep.”
As a venue dedicated to showcasing local and regional artists, we couldn’t think of a better fit for a summer evening at The CAM.
Adding to the experience will be Pig N Out, one of the area’s favorite food trucks. Known for their barbecue specialties and loyal local following, they’ll be serving up crowd-pleasing favorites throughout the evening. A cash bar will also be available inside the concession area.
The concert will take place outdoors on The Courtyard at The CAM, creating the perfect setting to enjoy live music under the summer sky. We have plenty of seating, but feel free to bring your own lawn chair. Mark your calendar, bring your friends, and settle in for an evening of great entertainment. If Mother Nature decides not to cooperate, we’ll simply move the show inside to our Mainstage so the music can continue uninterrupted.
Third Thursday is quickly becoming one of our favorite new traditions. It’s another step toward our vision of The CAM serving as a true community arts center, offering opportunities for people to gather, connect, and experience the arts in many different forms.
We hope you’ll join us on June 18 as we continue building something special, one Third Thursday at a time.
