Hearts Gone South to perform at next Summer Tracks event

Asheville-based group brings honky-tonk flavor to Tryon’s Rogers Park

TRYON—The Summer Tracks Concert Series in Rogers Park continues on Friday, August 2,  with Hearts Gone South. This band delivers straight-up honky-tonk with a side of classic country—full of heart and laced (as it should be) with wit and woe.

Based in Asheville, this five-piece ensemble has played its original tunes about love, loss, and victory for the underdog—along with beloved standards—on sawdust-strewn floors and festival stages from Anchorage to Atlanta. They shoot straight from the hip with impassioned vocals, a tight rhythm section, and smoking leads.

Hearts Gone South has produced three albums to date, with the fourth on the way. The band is comprised of Tricia Tripp (vocals), JP Parsons (guitar, vocals), Scott Thomas (drums), Silas Hamilton (pedal steel), and Morgan Geer (bass, vocals).

New View Realty of Tryon is the Summer Tracks 24th Season Presenting Sponsor, and Heartwood Gallery and The Purple Onion of Saluda are the concert sponsors for this event.

A full schedule, including performers bios and photos, can be found at www.summertracks.com.

All Summer Tracks performances begin at 7 p.m., and in case of rain, concerts will move across the street inside the Tryon Fire Department. Kirk’s Kitchen will sell hamburgers and hotdogs, chicken sandwiches and fish sandwiches, french fries, water, and soft drinks. Alcohol consumption is allowed in the park but is not for sale.

Audience donations, along with many local businesses and individual sponsors, make these shows possible.

The Summer Tracks 2024 Season will conclude on August 16 with The Dancing Fleas.
