The Sugar Hollows is “some kind of rock band" from Richmond, VA. The band was formed in 2020 when Mike and Gabe became neighbors in an apartment complex during the nationwide lockdown and heard each other playing music through the walls one day. A few jam sessions here and there quickly became a number of gigs throughout Virginia and North Carolina where the two played covers by the likes of Jim Croce, Brent Cobb, Lord Huron, Kings of Leon, and everything in between.

The Barons is a US alternative band comprised of lead singer and guitarist Peyton Alley, drummer Mathes Glymph, lead guitarist Josiah Ragland, and bassist Kirtland Gray. Forming in 2016, the Virginia natives’ repertoire include various sounds ranging from heavy-hitting indie rock to a lighter fair of introspective love songs. The band’s upcoming record "Le Chateau" embodies returning to death in nature and illustrates the contrast of beauty and destruction that lie in The Barons' sound. The Barons have supported some major alternative acts over the past few years such as Judah & The Lion, The Aces, Barns Courtney, and Catfish and the Bottlemen and amassed a large following on the East Coast headlining festivals and venues alike.
