Timothy Wayne - May 10
Timothy Wayne, an emerging country music star, began his journey while still a sophomore at Louisiana State University. Hailing from Franklin, Tennessee, Wayne grew up surrounded by music, thanks to his uncle, country legend Tim McGraw. His passion for performing ignited early, but it wasn’t until supportive peers encouraged him that he pursued it seriously. Signing with UMG Nashville in 2024 marked a pivotal moment, fulfilling a lifelong dream. Wayne’s music blends traditional country influences—like Waylon Jennings and George Strait—with modern flair akin to Dierks Bentley and McGraw. His debut singles, “God Made a Country Boy” and “Guy With a Guitar,” showcase this
fusion, earning him a growing fanbase. In 2024, he joined McGraw’s Standing Room Only Tour and is set to perform with Lee Brice in 2025.
Peyton Aldridge - May 24
Peyton Aldridge, a rising country music talent, hails from the Mississippi Delta, where his musical roots took hold singing in church and local venues. His career gained traction after appearing on “American Idol” season 18 in 2020, followed by a standout stint on “The Voice” in 2022, where he joined Team Legend.
Aldridge’s soulful voice and honest songwriting blend traditional country with a modern edge, drawing comparisons to Chris Stapleton and Vince Gill. His early hits like “Hometown Girl” and “All Because of You” reflect themes of love and rural life, while 2023 releases such as “Friend With a Beer” and “One More Night With You” showcase his evolving sound. With a sold-out hometown show in 2023 and growing buzz, Aldridge’s popularity is surging, fueled by his authenticity and

relatable storytelling, making him a fresh voice in today’s country scene.
The LACS - June 14
The Lacs, a country rap duo from Baxley, Georgia, consist of Clay “Uncle Snap” Sharpe and Brian “Rooster” King.
Formed in 2002, they began blending Southern rock, hip-hop, and traditional country, initially with Brandon Herndon, who left after their early self-released albums on Side Ya Mouth Records.
Signing with Backroad Records, a subsidiary of Average Joes Entertainment, they released six albums, four charting on the Billboard 200. Their unique “hick-hop” sound fuses gritty rap verses with twangy guitars, appealing to rural and rebellious listeners. Hits like “Kickin’ Up Mud,” “Country Boy’s Paradise,” and “Keep It Redneck”— which peaked at No. 3 on Top Country Albums in 2013—propelled their rise. In 2017, they launched Dirt Rock Empire, releasing Dirtbagz, Vol. 1.
The Lacs’ raw authenticity and genre- blending style have cemented their popularity in the country rap scene.
