Brooks Herring

Brooks Herring plays Friends in Low Places Bar & Honky-Tonk on Sunday, October 11, starting at 4 PM. It's a single-bill afternoon, so he's the only one on the stage.

Herring was born and raised in Conway, South Carolina, and now lives here in Nashville. He's an award-winning songwriter, a recording artist, and a U.S. Navy veteran, and he describes his music as drawing on the honesty of his Southern roots and the weight of his service. That background comes through in the range he works with: he plays country, country rock, country blues, and rock, and he's performed on everything from small-town stages to festival crowds. If you're not sure where he lands, that's a good place to start — he pulls from a few different corners of the country and rock traditions rather than sticking to one.

Since he's based right here in town, this is a local show. He'll be taking the stage at Friends in Low Places Bar & Honky-Tonk on Sunday afternoon, October 11, at 4 PM, with free admission.
