FRIDAY NIGHT AT Barrelhouse South: Almost Kings w/ VillaNova!

Almost Kings formed out of Atlanta, GA in 2008 by vocalist Bryan Bozeman and guitarist Ryan Yunker, and immediately hit the road for 2+ years supporting Rehab. Quickly establishing a reputation for high-paced & unrelenting crowd-involving live performances, the band continued to tour independently around the U.S., performing 200-250 shows each year from 2009 - 2014. AK has headlined countless shows, and has supported a wide variety of acts from Avenged Sevenfold to Yelawolf to Sevendust to The Lacs.

in 2012, Almost Kings won a nationwide CBS-sponsored, fan-driven contest and performed at the Grammys, becoming the first independent & unsigned rock act to do so. In 2014, they landed a performance at the ESPN X-Games with Kanye West, Mac Miller, and Slightly Stoopid. The band followed up with a nationwide, nearly sold-out tour supporting Bone Thugs 'n Harmony.

After five independently successful albums and a few lineup changes & additions, AK continues to write, tour, and independently push their brand down the throat of a tamed music industry. The fanbase, which has been built with a grassroots approach, only continues to grow hungry for more as AK released "Forever This Time" in August, 2017. Almost Kings is currently touring in support of the new high-powered, "we're-not-done-yet" attitude-filled album.

Villa*Nova turns rock 'n' roll upside down. Hailing from Columbia, SC, the band distills elements of funky pop and rock into a hypnotic hybrid. Villa*Nova prides itself on making music with solid grooves and soulful, dynamic lyrics provided by lead vocalist/guitarist/song writer BC Villa*Nova, fluid and funky bass lines by Bobby Dredd bombastic fantastic, rock solid drummer (and backing vocals) Young Sean, amazing harmony vocals and rhythm guitar by Brandon Hooker, and turntable wizadry and keyboards by DJ Able One.

Their infectious sound has earned them thousands of fans nationwide. Villa*Nova, currently independent, was previously signed to Universal Republic (now Republic) and recorded their 2012 debut "WTF the EP" in LA with super producer Howard Benson (Papa Roach, Daughtry, Hoobastank, Seether) under the band name Weaving The Fate. They have shared the stage with everyone from Korn, Shinedown, Evanescence, Slash, AWOLNATION, Staind, Chevelle, Filter, Crossfade, Dirty Heads, Nappy Roots, REHAB, and the list goes on.

They’ve been called contemporaries of break out bands such as AWOLNATION, Imagine Dragons, and Arctic Monkeys where heavy rebellion meets pop sensibilities.
