Headliner: Whitey Morgan and The 78s

With a career rooted in grit, soul, and over 15 years of relentless touring, Whitey Morgan has
long stood as one of the fiercest torchbearers of outlaw country. Hailing from Flint, Michigan,
Morgan has released six acclaimed studio albums, a powerful live record, and earned a
reputation as a relentless road warrior"averaging more than 125 shows per year. As Rolling
Stone put it, he's a "Waylon Jennings acolyte... a modern-day outlaw [with a] hard-hitting blue-
collar brand of music," while NPR praised him for staying true to the lineage of legends like
Jennings, Merle Haggard, and David Allan Coe.

Since the release of 2018's Hard Times and White Lines"called his "finest set yet" by
American Songwriter"Morgan has only deepened his impact, playing to packed clubs and sold-
out theaters across the country. In 2024, he reached a defining milestone with his official debut
at the Grand Ole Opry, a moment that signified more than just a career benchmark"it solidified
his place in country music's living legacy.

Whitey Morgan's creative resurgence came full force in early 2025 with the release of three new
singles produced by Shooter Jennings. These tracks"gritty, soulful, and unmistakably
Morgan"marked a powerful return to the studio. "Let Me Roll," the lead single, set the tone with
its raw heartland sound, followed by two equally compelling releases that proved Morgan's
songwriting is as vital as ever.

Now, Whitey Morgan & the 78's continue to push forward"onstage, in the studio, and on their
own terms. With a loyal fanbase built one show at a time, Morgan remains one of country
music's most enduring and authentic voices"an artist for the outsiders, the true believers, and
anyone who still finds salvation in a steel guitar and a hard truth.
