Darin and Brooke Aldridge Festival

Are you the type of person who likes to plan ahead and getaway for the weekend every now and then and look forward to the spring weather? If so, and you are looking for some great music and a great weekend . Then you should make plans in April to come to The Darin and Brooke Aldridge Music Festival on Coot Williams Road. Where is this Coot Williams Road you ask? Well, it is located just below the mountains of North Carolina and not too far from Charlotte. Nestled in the far corner of Lincoln County, Coot Williams Road is a place where not only you can sit in a field full of Corn, but you can also hear Darin and I sing about a field full of Corn from our latest self titled recording. This year promoters and great friends of ours John and Linda Hunsucker have asked Brooke and I to be the festival hosts. Excited and honored to have a festival named after Brooke and myself we along with John and Linda have a great line-up for this years festival that you won’t want to miss!!!

The Coot Williams Road Bluegrass Festival has been taking place for 2 consecutive years in a row now and is gaining more and more attention for it’s great music and great location! Darin and I have had the privilege to perform as well as help put the festival together ever since John and Linda began devising a plan for a festival around the Lincolnton/Cherryville area. The location and setting are very inviting and the staff, vendors, and everyone that is apart of this festival make you feel just like family while you are there.
