5:00 p.m.        Big Daddy & the Heat
Formerly "Thunder Ridge," John Deaton, Ross Bailey, and Rick Jones have formed a threesome that bangs out the sounds of Rock & Roll Boogie Woogie by artists such as Jerry Lee Lewis, Ray Charles, Fats Domino, and others. Driving boogie woogie piano with  strong backbeat that makes you want to getup and cut a rug. That's Big Daddy & the Heat.

Singer/songwriter, Kentucky native, and son of a coal miner, 19 year old Elliot brings a unique blend of Americana/alternate country/alternate rock style to the stage along with his six piece band, "The Articles."  He recently released his album “Undecided” and is scheduled to open  for Lorrie Morgan, Bucky Covington, and others.  For more information and to listen to Elliot’s music, visit www.elliotcollett.com.
