Each and every summer, there is one thing that I and my friends in music look forward to, and that is fun times with our pals at 99X and Park Tavern in Piedmont Park for Unplugged In The Park. I myself have yet to miss many Sundays. 99X brings you amazing music, at no cost, with drink specials and the park in the background. I usually switch between meeting my artist friends inside and hanging on a blanket in the park under the sun right in view of the stage. This has become the industry spot to be every Sunday! Not only is the music amazing, but it is usually local, regional, and national favorites. All of us have fond memories of great music, killer acts, and fun after parties from the last few years. What more could you ask for?

I myself have the luxury of my own personal friends like Gareth Asher, Michael Tolcher, Paul Warner, Connor Christian and Southern Gothic, Life & Limb, Angie Aparo, Sonia Leigh, Wesley Cook, Christopher Alan Yates, Nic Cowan and so many more performing. You never know who will be stepping onto the stage with these amazing acts. It’s a great time for all with the park full of people and adventure, and new friends to be made by all. This is a not miss event!
