And, finally, The Boys are Back in Town. Our headliner for Gateway 2025 is ... The Band US.
For those who do not already know, US is a rock band whose main mission seems to be keeping rock music alive and well in the Southeast. They deliver every show like it’s the first one they’ve ever done or the last one they will ever do.
Kelly Nagy (vocalist), Jeff Mannis (guitar), Richie Wright (drums) and Corey Lessard (bass) always bring a level of energy to the Gateway stage that is hard to duplicate. A good bit of their show is rock from the ’80s, but don’t let that fool you. Just when you think you’ve got them pegged, they will kick off a country favorite and then move back into their medley from Grease.
They continue to always be our most requested headliner for the festival because these fellows know how to show a crowd a good time!
Do not forget to get those photos in this week for the photo contest! The winning entry will be featured on the community phone book and the photographer will receive $100. Call CARE at 662-647-0942 for more information regarding submission of your photo entries.
It will be a great day of music, numerous vendors, wonderful food trucks, class reunions, an exciting kid’s zone, crowning of our Gateway royalty, beautiful cars, community awards ... and so much more!
We can’t wait to see you at our Gateway to the Delta Festival on Oct.18!
