After playing hundreds of public and private events for well over a decade, Fly-By Radio has become one of the biggest draws in the region. This high-energy variety rock band has a show that includes 6 great performers with male and female vocals! Based in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, this amazing group has become a household name. FBR cut their teeth playing 80s and 90s music on campus, but has become a favorite for festivals, fairs, and concerts all over the Southeast. They also pepper in tunes from the 70s to current hits.

Raised in Church Point, Louisiana, Chubby was introduced to Zydeco music as a young child by the musicians in his family. His father, Roy Carrier, and grandfather, Warren Carrier, were established Zydeco musicians that Chubby would watch in awe during band practices. โWhen they started performing and playing that sound, it just did something to me,โ Chubby said. โI wanted to be a part of it.โ At the age of 17, Chubby received a life-changing phone call from fellow Zydeco musician, Terrence Simien. โI donโt know who you are,โ Terrence told him, โBut the talk of the town is that you are one of the best drummers in Zydeco.โ He invited Chubby to Europe to play drums in his band as they opened 14 shows for legendary rhythm and blues musician, Fats Domino. Chubby joined Terrence Simien and the Mallet Playboys full-time and was introduced to a world of Zydeco appreciation that he never knew existed.

The Songwriters Showcase serves as a preview to the Frank Brown International Songwriters Festival. The night will feature Wood Box Heroes, the American acoustic supergroup, which is hardly anything like the bluegrass music you used to find in the cassette player of your grandadโs old Chevy pick-up truck. Deeply rooted in tradition, while melting together, an eclectic array of sounds from the country, bluegrass, blues, jazz, rock, and classical varieties, paired with crafty and authentic songwriting, the band delivers a piercing, listening experience that plunges deep into the caverns of the soul, bringing together some of the worldโs most highly laded musicians: Matt Menefee (banjoโBanjo, Mumford & Sons, Cadillac Sky, Warren Hayes), and Barry Bales (bassโAlison Krauss & Union Station) backing up the vocal magic of Jenee Fleenor (fiddleโBlake Shelton, Larry Cordle) and Josh Martin (singer/songwriter/guitarist). This unit has over a century of musical seasoning between them. Yet, it is quite astonishing that the years spent on separate roads, accompanying a spectrum of incredible artists and receiving some of the most sought-after honors and awards in the business, have led to this enigmatic musical intersection.
โWe are excited to continue our Sunset Series,โ Grant Brown, City of Gulf Shores Recreation & Cultural Affairs Director, said. โOur City has put so much effort into making Gulf Place Public Beach a beautiful and relaxing spot for our residents and guests. We are excited to mix that beauty with free entertainment for everyone to enjoy.โ
Sunset Series concerts are free to the public. Food trucks will be set up for those wishing to purchase food, and the Coastal Alabama Business Chamber will be present selling beverages for all ages to enjoy.
