The current schedule is below:

MAX STALLING

September 24, 4:00 p.m. - 5:30 p.m. - Tuesday General Session

Max Stalling is a country musician and native Texan. His latest album, Home to You, earned nominations for Best Album and Best Male Vocal at the Lonestar Music Awards. He was honored with a star on the South Texas Music Walk of Fame in 2008.

KYLIE RAE HARRIS

September 25, 8:30 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. - Wednesday Headline Session

Kylie Rae Harris's unique blend of country and folk helps her stand out as a singer-songwriter. She was named as New Female Vocalist of the Year in Texas and starred in the reality documentary series Troubadour, TX. Waited, the opener from her first EP, was played on The CW's show Hart of Dixie.

MADISON RYANN WARD

September 25, 11:45 a.m. - 1:15 p.m. - Lunch

Madison Ryann Ward combines soul, blues and pop music. Her timeless sound gained the attention of producer Jay-Z and led to an appearance on David Letterman's My Next Guest Needs No Introduction. Ward's single, Mirror, received acclaim from Billboard and Music Connection, among others.

PAYTON SMITH

September 25, 3:45 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. - Wednesday General Session

90s sound and classic guitar rock continue to influence Payton Smith's style of country music. The Nashville-based artist performed at the CMA Music Festival in 2018 and released his first single, Let Me Help You, in 2017. Smith was recently signed by Big Machine Label Group.

CHRIS COLSTON

September 26, 7:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. - Thursday Headline Session

Texas native Chris Colston combines a classic sound with his hometown roots to create his unique style, which is also influenced by his love for blues and rock n' roll. Gone, the title track from his 2018 EP, quickly surpassed a half-million streams upon its release.
