Steve Ray
Saturday April 4th
Steve Rey is an Atlanta/Vinings-raised singer-songwriter whose acoustic style is deeply rooted in the sounds of the 1970s.

Steve’s connection to the Old Vinings Inn Attic Bar is more than musical—it’s personal. In the early 1970s, his mother owned an antique shop called The Top of Vinings in the very space that now houses the Attic Bar, making his performances there a return to his roots.

Kurt Thomas
Friday April 10th
An inspiring high school graduation performance and $80 were all it took to get singer/songwriter Kurt Thomas hooked on the music business. And now, the small town country boy from Dahlonega, GA has recorded four CD’s and opened for some of the biggest names in country music including Kenny Chesney, Brooks & Dunn, LeAnn Rimes, Gary Alan, Darius Rucker, Zac Brown Band, Ronnie Milsap and Josh Turner. Kurt grew up enjoying the close-knit country life in Dahlonega where he heard local musician, Jay Drummonds, sing “Small Town” by John Cougar Mellencamp at his high school graduation. At that moment, he decided that’s what he wanted to do with his life and after graduation; he bought his first guitar for $80 and started his musical career. Eventually, Kurt started his own band, Kurt Thomas and the Small Town Band, in honor of the night he decided to make music his life and to honor the way of life that he had been raised to love.

Michael Jones
Saturday April 11th
Rooted in the red dirt spirit of Americana, Michael Jones brings a voice of honesty and heart to every stage he steps onto. Blending folk storytelling, country soul, and a touch of Southern grit, his songs capture the quiet truths of everyday life — love, loss, and the miles in between.
In a day and age where we’ve drifted from genuine human connection and the humanity within our music, Jones stands firmly in the opposite direction — reminding audiences that a song can still make you feel something real.
Armed with his guitar and a sound shaped by artists like John Prine, Jason Isbell and the Turnpike Troubadours, Jones creates an atmosphere that feels equal parts front porch and backroom bar. His live shows are intimate, conversational, and filled with moments that remind you why you fell in love with live music in the first place.
Based in Smyrna, Georgia, Michael performs under the banner Real Music for Real People — a simple promise that every lyric, every laugh, and every note comes straight from the heart.
