Live In The Vineyard attendees will be treated to a very special acoustic performance by multi-Platinum selling group The All American Rejects at the Uptown Theatre Saturday, November 4th. Known for stadium-size sing-alongs steeped in pop panache and rock 'n' roll danger, cheeky wit, and raucous concerts that border on religious experiences, The All-American Rejects confidently waltz against the grain. Their 2017 2-song EP Sweat, and the upcoming fifth full-length album, continue a near two-decade tradition of ballsy, brash, and bold pop rock anthems. The band first shook up the scene with their 2003 platinum-selling self-titled debut. Its double-platinum 2005 follow-up Move Along spawned the platinum smash "Dirty Little Secret," while 2008's gold-certified When The World Comes Down yielded their biggest hit to date: the quadruple-platinum "Gives You Hell." In total, sales have exceeded 10 million worldwide as Billboard ranked them on its "Hot 100 Artists of the 2000s" list and "Billboard 200 Artists of the Decade" list. Most recently, Kids In The Street notched acclaim fromRolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, USA Today, and more. It's only the beginning though...
Multi-Platinum entertainer Sara Evans is at the top of her game and will headline Friday, November 3rd at Uptown Theatre for a special all female line-up. With five No. 1 Country singles including "No Place That Far," "Suds In The Bucket, "A Real Fine Place To Start," "Born to Fly," and "A Little Bit Stronger," which spent 2 weeks in the top spot and was certified platinum by the R.I.A.A., Sara thrills audiences across the U.S. playing close to 100 shows each year. Her "stunning, country voice" (Rolling Stone) has earned her the prestigious Academy of Country Music Top Female vocalist accolade as well as numerous American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, Country Music Association, CMT and Grammy Awards nominations. In addition, the CMA awarded Video of the Year honors for her hit chart-topping single, "Born to Fly" from her double-platinum album of the same name. Evans' discography also includes the platinum-selling studio albums Real Fine Place and Restless and the gold-certified No Place That Far. Sara continues to forge a bold, creative path with the launch of Born To Fly Records, distributed by Sony RED, and her highly anticipated eighth studio album, Words, which debuted at #2 on Billboard's Top Country Albums Chart. The project has been dubbed the album of her lifetime and "captures an artist in full musical flight" (Associated Press).
Heralded as one of the most anticipated albums of 2017 by Billboard, Complex, Entertainment Weekly, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone and many more, HAIM's sophomore album Something To Tell You is the follow up to their critically acclaimed debut, which earned the sisters a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist in 2015. The New York Times heralded the new music's arrival saying "anyone worried about the vitality of mainstream rock music need not: HAIM is back." Renowned for their energetic and exciting live performances, HAIM has spent the better part of the last few years touring the globe with performances at Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Governor's Ball, Glastonbury and many more, making them festival veterans. They just completed a run of sold out shows and festivals, and announced an October show at The Greek Theatre in LA (5800 capacity) that sold out within minutes. HAIM first debuted current single 'Little of Your Love' when they returned to Saturday Night Livein May. Paste declared the song "absolutely infectious," Pitchfork described it as "flawless" and Noisey called the track "sunshine pop." The response has been equally as enthusiastic for the BloodPop® remix of "Little Of Your Love." On that remix, the acclaimed producer and songwriter who's worked with Lady Gaga, Madonna, Justin Bieber, Charli XCX, Mø, and more, transforms HAIM's infectious pop-rock track into an electro-pop bop that has already begun to dominate streaming playlists. Julia Michaels quickly cemented herself as the biggest global breakthrough artist of 2017 with the release of her multiplatinum-selling debut single, "Issues." Certified 2x platinum here in the US, with global consumption approaching 7 million, "Issues" is the best-selling song by a new artist released in 2017, according to Nielsen Music. It is also the highest on-demand audio streaming song by a debut artist this year. Prior to making her debut as a solo artist, Julia Michaels was quietly shaping the pop music landscape as one of today's most in-demand songwriters. She has co-written 17 titles that have charted on the Billboard Hot 100, 11 of which have hit the Top 40, including "Issues." Additional songwriting credits include hits like Justin Bieber's "Sorry," Nick Jonas ft. Tove Lo "Close," Selena Gomez's "Good for You" [feat. A$AP Rocky] & "Hands To Myself," Hailee Steinfeld "Love Myself," Britney Spears "Slumber Party," Gwen Stefani's "Used To Love You," and Linkin Park's "Heavy." Recently released works include Selena Gomez's "Bad Liar," Ed SHeeran's "Dive," John Legend's "Surefire," Justin Bieber & BloodPop®'s "Friends," with additional titles appearing on Jesse Ware and P!nk's upcoming albums. The cumulative worldwide stream count for songs Michaels has co-written exceeds 10 billion to date! ZZ Ward, a LITV alum, recently released her second studio album The Storm, the follow-up to her critically acclaimed debut Til The Casket Drops, that features duets with Fitz & The Tantrums, Gary Clark Jr and GRAMMY Award winner Fantastic Negrito. The Storm has received critical praise from Associated Press, New York Times, Rolling Stone, Fader, Nylon, Interview Magazine and more. Currently on the road with Kaleo ZZ has appeared on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, CONAN, Good Morning America, The Tonight Show, The View and many more. Gregory Darling is an enigma. Famed for appearing in a choir conducted as a child by Ennio Morricone (Exorcist 2) and having Prince jump on stage to jam with him, Darling initially signed to Polygram Records as Darling Cruel and shifted 100,000 copies of his debut album Passion Crimes in its first week of release. Following the 2016 U.S. release of Songs From Under The Hat, a compilation album featuring hits from his three previous solo albums in Europe on FOD Records, Darling is once again in the studio with producer Bob Rose. Recording all new material at Forum Music Village in Rome, the album -- as yet untitled and due to be released on FOD Records in early 2018 -- is astonishing in its depth and maturity and is set to mark Darling out as the new standard amongst his generation.

Paslay has celebrated five No. 1 hits including "Even If It Breaks Your Heart" (Eli Young Band), "Barefoot Blue Jean Night" (Jake Owen), "Angel Eyes" (Love & Theft), "Rewind" (Rascal Flatts) and "Friday Night," the smash lead single from his critically acclaimed self-titled debut album.A true artist's artist, USA Today calls Paslay "flat out-brilliant" and American Songwriter names him an influencer of country music.
