We're excited to announce that we have been hired by a local family to present an incredible house concert featuring Alabama singer-songwriter Kristy Lee in Morgan County, GA (near Madison and Rutledge, one hour east of Downtown Atlanta) on Sunday, March 22, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. Hors d'oeuvres and soft drinks will be served and are included in the ticket price, as well as a meet and greet with the artist and photo opportunities. This Is a fabulous chance to see Kristy in a very intimate setting, and to be up close and personal with this very talented singer-songwriter. She will not only be sharing her beautiful voice and original songs, there is sure to be some storytelling and conversation concerning her career and life on the road as well.

To reserve your ticket(s) and/or for additional information, please email [email protected] . Space and tickets are extremely limited so get those requests in ASAP! The homeowners reserve the right to approve all ticket requests. You will be notified via email with approval and payment information. The address will be provided prior to March 22nd. This will sell out fast, so please get your ticket requests submitted as soon as possible. We're excited to have yet another great concert coming to East Georgia/East Metro Atlanta!

Kristy Lee isn’t just a performer — she’s a weather system.

With a voice that can hush a room one moment and shake the walls the next, she’s built a reputation for leaving audiences both wrung out and lit up.

Born on the Gulf Coast and raised on grit, gospel, and a fierce streak of independence, Kristy’s songs carry the salt of the sea and the smoke of late-night dives.

On stage, she’s all-in, every time — no half measures, no autopilot. Every show feels like the most important one yet, because in her world, it is.

Whether she’s commanding a festival stage, breaking hearts in a packed listening room, or turning a living room into a sanctuary, Kristy delivers music the way it was meant to be felt: raw, soulful, and unforgettable.

She’s shared stages and stories with an eclectic range of artists, defied easy categorization, and carried her sound across state lines and oceans alike. But the through-line is always the same: connection, truth, and the electricity that happens when a song finds its mark.

The next time you see Kristy Lee, you might just walk away believing you’ve witnessed the greatest show of her life — until the next one.
