📣Band Announcement 📣

What happens when you assemble a super group comprising Patrick n Swayze, Harvest Sons, and King Jeremy? The result is a phenomenal ensemble performing iconic country and western hits from various decades, adorned in elaborate chain-stitched pearl snap shirts, big hats, and embroidered boots, poised to deliver a performance unprecedented in Knoxville. Born from an idea conceived on the backroads of Henry County, we are thrilled and honored to present The Rhinestoners at Grills & Guitars on Saturday, September 6th from 7-11pm…It is undoubtedly time to boot scoot boogie!!
