If you've spent any time in Monroe, you've probably already heard Rhonda Carrier sing. She's been at Pot Luck Cafe for close to four decades, and regulars have been known to come in on their birthday just to get a song out of her. On Saturday, August 22, she's bringing that same voice to the David's 105 stage with The Still Cruisin' Band.
This is a covers night, and it's built to be one. Rhonda and the band play the songs you grew up with, the ones you know all the words to, and they play them with the ease of a group that's been on stages together for years. Rhonda's voice is the reason to be in the room: big, warm, and completely unbothered by anything you throw at her.
Come ready to sing along. This one leans loose and social rather than quiet and reverent, so bring a friend, get a drink, and pick a seat close to the front. At $10, it's about the easiest Saturday night decision in Walton County.
Best for anyone who loves a great female lead vocalist, a room full of familiar songs, and supporting local musicians who have been part of this town longer than most of us.
Doors open at 7:00 PM and the music starts at 8:00 PM. Tickets are $10 in advance online. Free parking is available nearby in downtown Monroe.
