The songwriters have written hits, such as, “Waitin’ on a Woman” by Brad Paisley, “The Dance” by Garth Brooks, “A Women Like You” by Lee Brice, and many more.

The live performances will be held at two venues in downtown Henderson: The Elm and Rookies Sports Bar and Restaurant. Each venue will have live shows each night of the festival.
