Special guests will be nationally-syndicated radio host Bobby Bones with his band, The Raging Idiots; Lindsay Ell; and Georgia native and Georgia Music Awards Winner Ricky Gunn, who is bringing a fresh new head-bobbing, boot-stomping sound to country music.  Gunn’s new record, “King of this Town,” will be out this Spring.
