Asleep at
The Wheel has been part of the American roots music landscape for more than 50
years. Although the band got its start on a farm in Paw Paw, West Virginia,
asleep at the wheel became a cornerstone of the Austin, Texas scene upon its
arrival in 1973. Inspired by western swing and honky-tonk country, the band has
accrued 10 Grammy awards. Ray Benson carries the band back onto the road, where
they’ve remained a staple for five decades.
All on stage
together, all night long. These 3 artists will take you through ALL forms of
Country and Western music playing their hits as well as special songs from the
past for a non stop evening of fun.

Red Roster 2024 Festival shared : We
are honoured to host the final ever Asleep At The Wheel UK festival show
as part of AATW’s “Happy Trails” Tour. To mark this special occasion and
celebrate our tenth year AATW will be joined by Red Rooster favourites Brennen
Leigh and Joshua Hedley.
ABOUT: Fifty years ago, Asleep at the Wheel’s Ray Benson
wrote in his journal that he wanted to form a band to bring the roots of
American pop music into the present.
It seemed like an ambitious goal for a
19-year-old, yet Benson has done exactly that – traversing the globe as an
ambassador of Western swing music and introducing its irresistible sound to
generation after generation.
Although the lineup has changed countless times
since its inception, Benson’s mission has never wavered.
That merging of past and present is effortlessly woven
throughout two of the band’s new releases. First, their Better Times EP
compiles three new tracks: “All I’m Asking,” a rousing plea for a second
chance; the hopeful title track, about getting back to life as it once was
(namely, before the pandemic); and “Columbus Stockade Blues,” a traditional
tune arranged in the spirit of Willie Nelson and Shirley Collie’s 1960s
version. Then, in the fall, a career retrospective recorded with the new band
-- and a few special guests -- will carry Asleep at the Wheel back onto the
road, where they’ve remained a staple for five decades….Read FULL BIO

One
of Country’s biggest breakout stars in recent years, Megan Moroney first
burst onto the scene with her RIAA 2X PLATINUM hit single ‘Tennessee Orange’ —
an immediate smash showcasing her true-to-life storytelling, unforgettable
vocals, and strong-minded yet fiercely sensitive point of view.
Along with notching her first No.
1 at Country radio and landing on coveted lists like the Los Angeles Times’ “100 best songs of 2023,” ‘Tennessee Orange’
soon found the Sony Music Nashville/Columbia Records artist winning Breakthrough Female Video of the Year at the CMT Music Awards and making her debut
appearances on major TV shows like TODAY,
Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Good Morning America, and New Year's Eve Live:
Nashville’s Big Bash.
A Georgia
native who got her start singing covers with her dad and brother — and
later began penning her own songs while studying accounting at the
University of Georgia — Moroney made her massively acclaimed full-length debut
with 2023’s LUCKY: a powerhouse body of work that turned up on
best-of-the-year lists from leading outlets like the New York Times, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and the Associated
Press (who hailed her as a
“Gen Z songwriter with Taylor Swift-level acuity”).
Produced by Kristian Bush and
built on a timeless collision of Country, Folk, and Southern Rock, LUCKY also
revealed the lived-in intimacy and electrifying impact of her songwriting on
tracks like ‘I’m
Not Pretty’ (her current single, praised by Billboardas a “cheeky, defiant clapback”).
As she
continued her meteoric rise, the Nashville-based musician earned nominations by
CMA, ACM, and Billboard Music Awards, in addition to appearing at The GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles as part of its
illustrious SPOTLIGHT series inthe midst of her sold-out THE LUCKY TOUR — a fall 2023 run that
brought her magnetic live show to iconic venues across the U.S. Recently
featured on Forbes’ 30 Under 30, MusicRow’s Next Big Thing Class of 2024, and Country Radio Seminar’s New Faces of Country
Music, she kicked off 2024 with her stunning new song ‘No Caller ID’.
With more new music on the way —and over 824 MILLION total global streams to date —
Moroney will join Kenny Chesney on his SUN DOWN 2024 TOUR and take the stage at
Stagecoach Festival in April.
