Orlando Theatre Newsletter<\/p>\n Presented along the banks of the beautiful Pithlachascotee River,\u00a0Chasco Fiesta\u2122\u00a0is one of the longest-running and best-known events in Pasco County. Ruth Eckerd Hall on the Road is proud to partner with Chasco Fiesta\u2122 in booking and producing the national artists for the sixth consecutive year.<\/p>\n Molly Hatchet\u00a0firmly cemented their place in music history in the late seventies. They stood alongside other iconic Southern rock bands out of Jacksonville, Florida, such as Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers.\u00a0\u00a0A perfect mixture of English invasion rock, blues, country, and gospel remains the unique sound of Molly Hatchet.\u00a0<\/p>\n They were the hardest hitting of the Southern rock bands at the time when, in 1978, Epic Records released Molly Hatchet\u2019s self-titled debut album.\u00a0It reached multi-platinum status, and the band established their reputation of working hard, playing tough and living fast through intense touring. During this time, they were on the road with Aerosmith, Bob Seger<\/a>, The Rolling Stones, and many others.<\/p>\n The band\u2019s current lineup consists of long-time members Bobby Ingram on lead guitar and John Galvin on keyboards, as well as Tim Lindsey on bass guitar and Garrett Ramsden\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0on drums, with Parker Lee on vocals.\u00a0Molly Hatchet continues to honor the legacies of those members who passed away (including Danny Joe Brown<\/a>, David Hlubek, and Phil McCormack) by keeping the\u00a0music alive, performing across the United States, and throughout the world.<\/p>\n The Embry Brothers Band, known for their pure rock energy and southern soul, has played together for over 25 years. The band lives by the motto \u2013 Be Good, Be Kind, Be Happy and Rock On.<\/p>\n John Carter<\/a> Cash\u00a0has been involved in music all his life and is an accomplished and award-winning record producer, film producer, writer, and director. Also, as a singer-songwriter and author, his works within the creative world reach far beyond just music production. The grandson of\u00a0Maybelle Carter<\/a>\u00a0and the only child from the marriage of\u00a0Johnny Cash<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0June Carter Cash<\/a>, he preserves the family legacy. He is caretaker to the musical heritage of his ancestors.<\/p>\n John Carter<\/a>\u00a0has produced hundreds of recordings for dozens of artists within the past twenty years, including\u00a0Dr. Ralph Stanley<\/a>, Elvis Costello<\/a>,\u00a0Jamey Johnson<\/a>,\u00a0Chris Cornell<\/a>,\u00a0George Jones<\/a>,\u00a0Dailey and Vincent,\u00a0Mavis Staples<\/a> and more. In total, he is the winner of two GRAMMY\u00ae Awards and a producer on five more GRAMMY\u00ae Award-winning records. His newest album,\u00a0Pineapple John, was released in September 2025.<\/p>\n Cassidy Daniels\u00a0is a Nashville-based artist and songwriter with a voice as soulful as her southern roots. Following her move to Nashville, Tennessee, Cassidy signed a publishing deal with Liz Rose Music in 2019. Since then, she has been building a catalog of music that reflects her storytelling instincts and bold perspective. In 2025, she added Laguna Madre Management to her team, further cementing her place as one of country music\u2019s most exciting rising voices.\u00a0<\/p>\n Cassidy recently made waves as a Top Three Finalist on the CBS\/Paramount TV series\u00a0The Road\u00a0and has continued to carve out her lane as both a recording artist and a sought-after writer.\u00a0Cassidy has shared the stage with icons like Willie Nelson<\/a>, Florida Georgia Line, and Billy Currington<\/a>, captivating crowds with her signature blend of grit and vulnerability. Her presence is also reaching beyond the stage: she\u2019s set to appear in the upcoming\u00a0Yellowstone\u00a0spin-off\u00a0Dutton Ranch, performing multiple original songs. With momentum on the road, in the studio, and on screen, Cassidy Daniels is quickly becoming a standout star in the next wave of country music.<\/p>\n Clint Byron\u00a0is a Nashville-born country artist whose sound is rooted in East Tennessee. Raised on a horse ranch, he learned early to turn everyday stories\u2014hard work, heartbreak, and the kind of quiet freedom only rural life provides\u2014into songs that linger.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\ud83c\udfad NEW!
