Punk band Eureka California (from Athens, Ga.), progressive group Crow vs. Hawk (Franklin/Asheville), heavy New-Wave band Total War, jazzy-dance rock band The Unawarewulves played throughout the night.

Indie rocker Daniel Powell (Athens), folkcountry artist Polecat Swagger and electro-groove musician Tall Fields (Highlands) all performed between each set, adding to the myriad of musical styles heard throughout the night.

Another show is in the works for May.
