The Lineup
A little bit of country. A little bit of rock and roll. A little bit of soul. A whole lot of awesome. The Stone Pier's annual lineup always offers something for everybody. We strive to introduce new music to our attendees as well as showcase some familiar tunes. From coast to coast, Nashville to Austin, to our very own backyard, artists travel from near and far to take the Stone Pier stage. Our 2025 lineup will be announced soon. Learn more about the 2024 performers.
We could not make this free concert series happen without the support of some very special businesses and individuals. Below are just a few from a long list of donors who generously contribute to this cause. And don't forget about all of our volunteers that ensure the show goes on.
