August 25th Concert Details:
Music Line-Up:
- The Mobros
The Mobros are Kelly & Patrick Morris. The name simply stands for “Morris Brothers.” But while the chosen name for this electric songwriting duo may be simple, their songs are not so simplistic. Growing up in rural South Carolina, the brothers learned to draw from their surroundings, blending the sounds of soul, rock & roll, and Americana. Their music is both decidedly dark, yet light in nature. The Mobros have played their fair share of festivals, including Columbia’s Blues Festival, Fall for Greenville Music Festival, and a headlining slot at St. Pat’s in Five Points in 2012. - The Restoration
The Restoration’s members grew up performing in orchestras, church choirs, fiddle groups and rock bands in the small town of Lexington, South Carolina. Formed in 2007, the band have used their varied backgrounds as a lens for exploring the music and culture of their native soil, channeling storytelling and regional history through instrumentation associated with traditional and post-rock America alike. Musically, the band wishes to take part in the evolution of traditional and regional music, providing a living, contemporary voice that embraces overlapping genre boundaries while remaining aware and respectful of music history.
