With award nominations and collaborations with industry giants like Diplo, Zac Brown Band, and Thomas Rhett under her belt, Bradbery's rise continues to captivate and inspire.

It's a southern sound inspired by folk songs, murder ballads, country classics, and everything in between, glued together by a biographical songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Landon's full band will be joining him!

Ghost of the Pleasure Garden: This high-energy, blues band is local to Kerrville! The bands namesake is a historic juke joint in the Doyle Community in Kerrville, the Pleasure Garden. BB King once played there and Ghost of the Pleasure Garden carries that energy in their music!
