**Freddie McClendon live at Eddie's Attic!** Freddie McClendon is a singer-songwriter from Greenwood, South Carolina. He first fell in love with music as a child living in a retirement home where his dad worked, spending his earliest years dressing up as Elvis and performing for the residents who encouraged him to perform. After his father’s shocking murder in 2023, McClendon turned to writing songs as a way to process his grief. In 2024 he released Present Memories. In 2025 he appeared on Season 23 of American Idol, performing his original song “You Never Loved Him,” which moved Carrie Underwood to tears and prompted Luke Bryan to call him “the next Paul Simon.” McClendon’s songwriting often blends personal history with observations about the South, most notably in his viral single King Henry, which challenges the “Good Ole Boys” system and generational corruption in South Carolina. His live shows have grown steadily, selling out in numerous markets across the southeast. His unreleased tracks “Drinkin’ Crimes,” “Rambler,” and “Lover” have already drawn millions of views ahead of their official release, and he plans to release new music throughout 2026. In early 2026, he will also join SUSTO on their North American tour as a supporting act.

Drayton Farley Special Duo Performance feat. Jimmy Teardrop live at Eddie's Attic w/ support from Landon Smith! Only a few years ago, the life Drayton Farley now lives seemed nothing short of a pipe dream. There he was — working the railroads, strumming his guitar, singing his songs for his ass-busting coworkers, dreaming about the life of a touring musician. A proud disciple of the vulnerable, evocative Southern storytelling made famous by Jason Isbell, Tyler Childers, and Sturgill Simpson, Farley has beaten the odds in a big way. Through no shortage of innate talent, true grit, and undeniable work ethic, the Alabama-raised singer-songwriter earned himself a dedicated fanbase, a Grand Ole Opry debut, and gigs sharing the stage with Willie Nelson, Dwight Yoakam, and Ryan Bingham. Now he's releasing his most complete and unflinching artistic statement to date — A Heavy Duty Heart — a meditation on love, risk, and dreams slowly becoming real. Poignantly written, beautifully sung, and produced by the acclaimed Sadler Vaden (Jason Isbell), it's the record that properly introduces Farley as a musical talent to be reckoned with. 'It was like winning the lottery in slow motion,' he says. 'A truth that slowly showed itself.' - Landon Smith No matter how old you are or where you’re from, Landon Smith might just have a song for you. Landon delivers his stories with the raw grit, hard-earned experience, and the wise-beyond-his-years perspective of an old school troubadour, pulling no punches as he strums his guitar and sings as loudly as possible. The 21-year-old Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and guitarist serves up post-Millennial Americana spiked with dyed-in-the-wool country storytelling and surges of rock ‘n’ roll energy. Growing up forty-five minutes south of Atlanta in McDonough, GA, he played in bands throughout middle school and high school, and he gained his first recording experience on an iPad with Garage Band. Simultaneously, he obsessed over a myriad of favorite artists, listening to everyone from Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers, and Rainbow Kitten Surprise to Deftones and Jason Isbell. During college, he gigged locally solo. Around the same time an acoustic TikTok post of his first single “If You Want Me Tonight” went viral. It eventually reeled in north of 10.6 million Spotify streams, paving the way for “July 6th” and “Taking Off to Tennessee.” Between performing shows with Tyler Halverson and Uncle Lucius, he supported Gavin Adcock on tour. Stacking up tens of millions of streams independently and attracting the likes of GRAMMY® Award-winning producer Dave Cobb [Brandi Carlile, Chris Stapleton] to his corner.
