Brandon Cunning and the Stunning Cunning Band have become a perennial favorite and headliner in recent years, making the journey from Memphis, Tenn.

Since the summer of 1993, Cunning has yet to be derailed from his mission of bringing rockabilly to a new generation. With his guitar playing, vocals, and stunning showmanship, it’s not hard to see and hear his influences of Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Brian Setzer. Late in 2006, faced with a regional lack of interest in his 50s rock and roll music, Cunning relocated from his hometown of Washington, Pa., to Memphis, Tenn.–the birthplace of rock and roll. He soon put together The Stunning Cunning Band, a four-piece rockabilly band that has the groove that’ll make you move! Playing tribute to the original rock and roll legends, The Stunning Cunning Band set its collective sight on one thing–delivering incredible back-to-back hit songs in their natural state with a high energy show.

The band is fronted by the charismatic Brandon Cunning on guitar along with Steve Clark (stand up bass), Rick McFarland (drums), and Brian Stuhr (guitar). The Stunning Cunning Band pushes the limits of excitability to borderline good-time hysteria.

As always there will be many great foods to enjoy including their famous roast chicken, roast beef, roast pork, BBQ ribs, hot sausage, homemade noodles, apple dumplings, and much more.
