New Year’s Eve with The Whiskey Smugglers, Magician Michael Casey, and All Y’all Country All Stars

The Whiskey Smugglers (2007-2010) were a Carrboro, NC–based large-ensemble Americana project rooted in bluegrass, folk, and alt-country traditions. Known for their rich harmonies, rolling acoustic textures, and sharply observed songwriting, the band built a devoted following throughout the Triangle with songs that balanced humor, heartache, and poetic grit. Their sound is warm, communal, and deeply grounded in Southern storytelling. This New Year’s Eve reunion brings The Whiskey Smugglers back together for a rare, one-night celebration of the music, the friendships, and the scene that shaped them. They’ll be joined by both old and new friends, including magician Michael Casey and the All Y’all Country All-Stars to help ring in the New Year in true communal style. Whether you’re a longtime fan or a first-time listener, expect a night of heartfelt songs, joyful noise, and hometown nostalgia.

Feyleux with More Is Not Enough and Heavy For The Vintage

Feyleux Bandcamp / Instagram / Facebook / Spotify Feyleux is a new dark alternative duo that emerged in mid-2023, seamlessly blending dream pop, darkwave, and post-punk to create their distinct sound. Their debut album, “ Midnight Hearts”, released via the Swiss Dark Nights label, showcases cutting-edge bass synthesizers, cascading guitar melodies, and ethereal harmonies, drawing on the vibrant gothic synth-pop aesthetics of the 1980s as well as modern darkwave. “Midnight Hearts” beautifully merges a dreamy urgency with dramatic flair, embodying the spirit of dark romanticism. This powerful fusion invites a deep exploration of apocalyptic love and anger, firmly establishing Feyleux’s surrealistic gothic style in the contemporary dark scene.

After years of crisscrossing the U.S. and U.K., Latham put down roots in Durham, NC, in 2014. His 2017 album, Little Me Time, highlighted his talent for pairing razor-sharp lyrics with compelling melodies and expansive production. To bring his songs to life on stage, Latham formed The Borrowed Band, an ensemble of some of the region’s most respected musicians, including former members of Ben Folds Five, Shooter Jennings, and 6 String Drag. Together, they deliver a captivating blend of ballads and barnstormers, drawing on the chemistry of vintage duets like Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris while adding a modern twist.   Pillow Foot   Pillow Foot is a new collaboration between four veterans of the Triangle’s music scene: singer-songwriter John Gillespie, drummer and producer Ian Schreier, guitarist Stefan Rogers, and bassist Chris Dunbar.
