What: 26th Annual RC-MoonPie Festival and 10M & 5K Run
When: Saturday, June 19, 2021 Where: Bell Buckle, Tennessee
Who: Bell Buckle Chamber of Commerce
The Bell Buckle 26th Annual RC-MoonPie Festival is less than a month away and have we ever got a foot tapping, good timing musical performance for you! This year’s musical guest is one fun artist that will have the crowd laughing, singing, and talking about how much fun the festival was for years to come!
Florida native John Allan Miller is putting his unique good timing stamp on Music City as both an artist and as one of Nashville’s most creative songwriters. His high energy performances, undeniably catchy songs and infectious personality earned him a spot in CMT’s Dodge Ram Artist Development Program and have built a solid buzz in Music City. His songs have hints of influences like Jack Johnson, Jimmy Buffett and Tom Petty, but it’s his unique approach to songwriting that sets him apart. As a songwriter, Miller has been hard at work, landing over 30 cuts with rising Nashville stars like Tiera, Cort Carpenter, Hannah May Allison, Lexi Mackenzie, Bailey James and more. He also garnered international success when Australian artist Cassidy Rae Gaiter, hit #1 on the charts down under. In late 2019, JAM released his first single as an artist, “Bad Day To Be A Beer”, which was played on over 75 stations in North America. He didn’t let the pandemic slow him down, releasing a string of songs, including fan favorites “Just Add Water”, “Once In A Blue Moon” and his unique cover of Green Day’s “Basket Case”. Miller continues to let the good times roll in 2021 with his new song “I Believe” and a promise to deliver new music throughout the rest of the year. Try out his music on Spotify.
After his 2:00pm performance, he will be available for autographs and photo opportunities in front of the iconic Bell Buckle mural in the alleyway entry to the festival grounds.
