Exile

Exile is one of the most successful and longest-running bands in American music history. This award-winning, Kentucky-bred band has topped both the pop and country charts spanning several decades, and their iconic worldwide No.1 smash, “Kiss You All Over” spent four weeks at the top of Billboard’s pop chart in 1978. In the early 1980s, the Exile boys returned to their country roots, turning out hit after hit on the country charts including “Woke Up In Love,” “Give Me One More Chance,” “She’s A Miracle,” “It’ll Be Me,” “She’s Too Good To Be True,” “Super Love,”  “Hang On To Your Heart,” “I Could Get Used To You,” “I Can’t Get Close Enough,” “I Don’t Want To Be A Memory,”  “Crazy For Your Love,” and “Nobody’s Talking.”  They’ve scored eighteen Billboard chart hits since they started, with eleven reaching the industry’s coveted No.1 position. Prolific songwriters, Exile has written or co-written many of their hits plus hits for other major label artists, and their music has been featured in movies and TV shows. They have achieved gold albums, multiplatinum singles, multimillions in sales and airplay, numerous award nominations from the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music, and are Kentucky Music Hall of Fame inductees. They love the Grand Ole Opry and have appeared on its iconic stage more than 100 times. Exile continues to thrill audiences year after year with their signature harmonies and soulful country sound

Here Come the Mummies

  Here Come the Mummies is an eight-piece funk-rock band of 5000 year-old Egyptian Mummies with a one-track mind. Their "Terrifying Funk from Beyond the Grave" is sure to get you into them (and possibly vice versa).   Since their discovery, HCTM has been direct support for P-Funk, Al Green, Mavis Staples, KC and the Sunshine Band, and Cheap Trick; rocked Super Bowl Village; become a regular on The Bob and Tom Show; appeared on That’s My Jam with Jimmy Fallon; played massive festivals like Summer Fest, Summer Camp, Common Ground, Musikfest, and Suwannee Hulaween; and sold tickets by the thousands across large swaths of North America. Maybe that’s why the ladies (and some dudes) can’t stop losing their minds over these mayhem-inducing mavens of mirth.   Some say they were cursed after deflowering a great Pharaoh’s daughter. Others claim they are reincarnated Grammy-Winning studio musicians. Regardless, HCTM’s mysterious personas, cunning song-craft, and unrelenting live show will bend your brain, and melt your face. Get ready! Here Come The Mummies.   HCTM is:   Mummy Cass - guitar, vocals Eddie Mummy- drums, vocals K.W. TuT- bass, vocals Spaz- keys, vocals The Pole!- bass Midnight Mummy- bari & tenor sax, keys, percussion, talk box, vocals Dr. Yo- saxes, vocal, tambo Highlander- tenor sax "H-POD" (High Priest of Death)- trumpet       www.herecomethemummies.com www.facebook.com/herecomethemummies twitter.com/hctmummies
