The concert is aimed to benefit FENCE’s nature education and outdoor recreation programs. All proceeds will go towards these programs that help families learn about the great outdoors and take part in outdoor activities. 

Set to headline the concert will be the Dirty South Band. This homegrown southern rock group has performed across the region at venues such as Harrah’s Cherokee Resort and the Radio Room in Greenville. Their unique sound and style have even led them to Mccaysville, Ga., Hampton, Va., and Mountain Home, Ark., to showcase their music. One of their most recent performances took place in Newport, Tenn., at the Popcorn Sutton Jam, an annual tradition where folks get together to honor the late great legend of moonshining. 

When not on the road, The Dirty South Band plays local shows at Tryon International, Tryon Fine Arts Center, and more. They look forward to adding another great show while in their hometown at the Moon Howl concert. 

Kayla McKinney and the Twisted Trail Band will perform at the Moon Howl concert.

Another group set to take the stage at the Moon Howl concert is Kayla McKinney and the Twisted Trail Band. McKinney is a talented country artist who is heavily influenced by country music performers such as Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, and Carrie Underwood. McKinney has a long list of performances under her belt all across the southeastern region of the United States. She looks forward to sharing her music and her message of empowering women at the Moon Howl Concert. 

Dirty South Band and Kayla McKinney are on many streaming services, including Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube.

The Moon Howl concert will feature hillside seating facing a stage. Guests are encouraged to bring a chair or blanket to sit comfortably on the lawn. Tickets can be purchased online or at the gate for $20 a person. Gates open at 6 p.m., and music will begin at 7 p.m.

FENCE is located at 3381 Hunting Country Rd in Tryon.
