Kings of Southern Soul

An electrifying evening of Southern Soul & Blues featuring King George, Pokey Bear, J-Wonn and Ronnie Bell and hosted by MC Lightfoot.

Based out of Hopkin, South Carolina, vocalist/songwriter King George makes smooth, party-centric R&B tracks with an old-school flair. Good times, relaxed mind states, and romantic moods are the primary subjects of all of King George’s feel-good tunes, and tracks like his 2022 single “Keep On Rollin” were streamed millions of times over. Carrying the torch for Southern soul, King George began releasing his ’90s-inspired melodic R&B tracks around 2020. Weekend anthems like “Leave & Party” and “Friday Night” caught on regionally, thanks to both local airplay and King George’s readiness to take his show on the road throughout the South. His 2022 single “Keep On Rollin” became one of the King’s biggest songs to date, with millions in streams and video views, and he followed it up later that year with new track “Girl You Got It.”
