from Southern Hang · host Southern Hang Studios

In this episode of Southern Hang, we look ahead to Kentucky’s 2026 live music scene, breaking down upcoming tour stops, festivals, and local shows we’re most excited about. We talk through major festivals like Railbird and smaller more intimate events like Romp in Owensboro and Nicholas Jamerson's Sleeping in the Woods Festival at Lake Cumberland. Plus highlight must-see concerts coming through some of our favorite venues including The Burl, Mercury Ballroom, and Zanzabar. As always, we wrap things up by identifying our two new Jaams of the Week.
