The Guests:
John Stone
During a career spanning over two decades in America’s country music capital, Nashville, Stone can recall countless highlights, including entertaining world leaders at the White House Christmas party – and performing 9 times for a former President of the United States.
Stone was a resident of Kid Rock’s Chillin’ the Most Cruise, where he has performed to a cruise-ship full of music-loving fans for 10 years running and was the only artist invited back all 10 times. When not touring, Stone was a staple and the top act at the World Famous Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge for 16 years. Now, he and the Trailer Park All-Stars have been at Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky Tonk & Rock ‘n’ Roll Steakhouse. In Nashville, he is known as “The King of Lower Broadway” as he is well-known for being one of the best Honky Tonk performers and entertainers around.
After making his Australian debut in 2008 at the Tamworth Music Festival in Tamworth AUS , the demand for John and the Trailer Park All-Stars to perform in Australia has been overwhelming. Fans were amazed not only by what was seen on stage but also the entire band’s engagement with festival goers in and around the campsites and festival grounds. Stone returned by popular demand, performing sold out shows at Tamworth Country Music Festival, and throughout Queensland and New South Whales John and the Trailer Park All-Stars also played the Gympie Music Muster that same year where they closed the festival, performing to an overflowing venue. Stone decided to record the music video for his single ‘Please Please’ at this performance which made the Top 20 Country Airplay Charts at the time. Australian fans just can’t seem to get enough, with Stone headlining the 2015 Plantation Music Festival and performing at the 35th anniversary of the Gympie Music Muster in 2016.
Prior to realizing his childhood dream of becoming a singer/songwriter, Stone spent eight years in the Alabama National Guard as a gunner on an M-1 Tank. He served during Desert Shield and Desert Storm, an experience he says has given him the resilience and determination needed to forge a successful career in the music industry.Having picked up the guitar at the age of six, the multi-talented and self-taught singer/songwriter also plays the bass, drums, harmonica and piano. At any live performance, Stone draws upon all of his musical talent to deliver what he is best known for – energetic, crowd-pleasing performances that leave his audiences wanting more.
Silas Frayser
Silas Frayser is a rising musician from Batesville, Virginia, whose passion for music was sparked at a young age and has only grown stronger with time. Raised in a small, tight-knit community, Silas’ early memories are filled with the sounds of his father playing guitar. It was during these formative years that Silas picked up the instrument himself, starting with simple chords and melodies before delving deeper into the world of songwriting and performance.
Growing up, Silas was heavily influenced by the music around him. His dad’s influence was pivotal, but the sounds of classic rock, jam bands, and the unique blend of folk and Americana that defined the ‘90s also shaped his musical identity. Bands like the Grateful Dead and the Dave Matthews Band were staples in the Frayser household, laying the groundwork for Silas’ love for extended jams.
Now, as he records and releases new music, Silas Frayser blends his deep love for jam bands with modern country influences and a laid-back, acoustic feel. His music is defined by its warmth, storytelling, and authenticity, incorporating elements of classic rock and folk with the easy-listening vibes of contemporary acoustic music. His live performances are a reflection of his musical journey—rooted in the freedom and energy of his jam band inspirations, yet firmly grounded in the accessible and emotional sound of modern country music.
Lloyd Carter
Lloyd Carter, a country artist from South Georgia who brings heart, and authenticity to every stage he steps on. Rooted in classic country storytelling and fueled by real-life experience, Lloyd delivers songs that connect whether it’s a packed honky-tonk, an intimate listening room, or a full-band show at a festival.
Known for his warm stage presence and genuine connection with audiences, Lloyd blends timeless country sounds with a modern edge, creating performances that feel both familiar and fresh. His music reflects themes of faith, family, perseverance, and home songs that resonate long after the last note fades.
Georgia Hudson
Georgia Hudson is a Nashville-based country singer-songwriter and artist who has actively performed in the city’s songwriter rounds, including Grindhouse Nashville and 6th & Peabody.
The Hosts:
Skyelor Anderson
Born in Memphis, Skyelor Anderson has been making a name for himself in the Country scene, blending Soul, Gospel, and Country into a sound that’s all his own. A former X Factor contestant, he has opened for major acts like Jamey Johnson, Brothers Osborne, and Jon Pardi, proving he belongs on the biggest stages, holds a residency at Chief’s on Broadway and tours regularly with his band.
Ben Kadlecek
Nashville singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Ben Kadlecek hails from Texas; where everything is bigger. At 29 years old, Ben has already built a compelling career rooted in storytelling, authentic songwriting, and dynamic live performance.
Ben spent his early years performing intimate acoustic sets and small band shows across the Lone Star State before assembling a full band and hitting the road throughout the South. At the core of his artistry is his love for storytelling – a gift that shines through whether he’s behind a guitar or a keyboard, a skill he’s cultivated since learning piano at just seven years old.
As a songwriter, Ben approaches each track like a puzzle, piecing together lyrics and melodies to create songs that resonate on a deeper level. His songwriting earned national recognition when “Amen,” originally featured on Brazos County Bound, became the lead single for Nashville artist Jacob Bryant’s 2022 album Barstool Preacher.
That same year, Ben released a string of singles that expanded his reach, including “Ghosts”, which made its way to BMI”s Texas Top 10 playlist and “Tell Me” which landed on Spotify’s Fresh Finds Country playlist.
In August 2023, Ben made the move to Nashville full time, diving headfirst into writing and recording new material. Alongside a busy writing schedule, Ben landed a residency at Eric Church’s “Chief’s” bar on Broadway and has even shared the stage with The Chief himself on multiple occasions.
The Heartbreak Sessions released in March 2024 marked a fresh chapter in his sound, followed by the October Single “Hell Mary”. With music continuing to roll out – Ben Kadlecek is poised for a breakout. Gritty, heartfelt, and unmistakably real, he’s a rising voice worth keeping an eye (and ear) on.
