Big City Band

Big City Band | 4 - 5:30 pm
The Big City Band is a 6-piece rockin’ country band formed in 2017. Their unique sound features gritty lead vocals fused with the smooth sound of family harmonies. Growing up the band was inspired by the traditional country music sounds of Merle Haggard and southern rock sounds of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Their hometown of Grottoes, Virginia is a small town nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains thus the name, “The Big City Band”. This group has built quite a following of loyal fans known as the ‘BCB Strangers’ and has become a premiere party band in the state of Virginia. A Big City Band show features an up tempo mix from all genres of music along with original tunes that will make you dance the night away. The band is currently working to complete their debut EP album set to be released later this summer. The Big City Band is currently accepting bookings and are ready to be the life of your next party. BCB Baby!

Dell Foxx can now be found playing at bars and events across the state and continue to add more venues to their busy schedule.

SCAM ALERT
There have been multiple reports of people trying to pose as hosts or vendor hosts of festivals held at Massanutten Resort claiming there are additional spaces available.
