John Berry
The 04 Center
Grammy and Emmy award-winning singer-songwriter rose to stardom on the country charts of the 1990s with such mega hits as Your Love Amazes Me, Standing on the Edge of Goodbye, and She’s Taken a Shine. His annual Christmas tours brighten the holidays for thousands, as does his electrifying rendition of O’ Holy Night. During his star-making decade, John placed 20 singles on the county charts, 6 of which went Top 5, with Your Love Amazes Me, scoring a #1 on the Billboard and Radio & Records Country Chart as well as Standing on the Edge of Goodbye and She’s Taken a Shine earning the #1 slot in Radio & Records. He has earned multiple Gold and Platinum records over the years. John was nominated for the ACM Top New Male Vocalist in 1994, won a Grammy Award in 1996 for his participation in Amazing Grace: A Country Salute to Gospel Vol. 1, was nominated for another Grammy in 1995 for his smash hit Your Love Amazes Me and was nominated for the CMA Horizon Award and Top Male Vocalist Award in 1995. In 1997 he was nominated for Vocal Event of the Year (for Long Haired Country Boy with Charlie Daniels and Hal Ketchum), and in 2013, John was nominated for the Mainstream Country Male Artist by the ICM Awards. And thanks to the miracles of modern technology, he even sang a duet with the late, great Patsy Cline. “I love what I do, with a passion not seen in quite some time. I’m hopeful and excited about the future. I love singing and always will. I have a bus, an incredible stage presentation, a great band, a hands-on management team, and I’m always all dressed up and ready to go.” He and his family moved back to Music City after several years in Georgia, and in 2019, John is pursuing a touring and personal appearance schedule that is more active than ever. Given his wide range of music and number of releases, John is fortunate in that he can book a solo show with just himself and guitar, a small-band acoustic show or a full-band engagement and has more than enough hit material to captivate a crowd and deliver an evening full of musical memories. John’s enduringly powerful performances draw on a lifetime of making music and living life. Born in South Carolina and raised in Georgia, he began playing guitar at 13, performing shows at age 14, and making records at age 19. “By the time I was 17, I knew that music was what I wanted to do with my life,” and he has done it well ever since. Between 1979 and 1990, he recorded and marketed six albums on his own labels. The Graduation Song, which he wrote during his senior year in high school, became a perennial favorite at graduation ceremonies. It appeared on two of his early collections. Those early discs and John’s strong regional popularity attracted attention on Music Row. Capitol Records signed him to his first major label contract in 1992. Berry’s co-written hits A Mind of Her Own and Kiss Me in the Car introduced him to radio audiences in 1993. Then Your Love Amazes Me, What’s in it for Me and You and Only You thrust him to stardom in 1994. Standing on the Edge of Goodbye, I Think About it all the Time, and If I Had Any Pride Left at All were all major hits the following year, with Standing on the Edge of Goodbye earning John the coveted 1995 Grammy nomination. But it was his stunning performance of the title track of the 1995 CD O’ Holy Night that led to his most enduring legacy to date. John began doing special Christmas tours that year and 2016 marks his 20th anniversary holiday concert tour. He has big plans to celebrate and involve the fans like never before for this anniversary celebration. He has also issued three more Christmas-music collections. If O’ Holy Night is all that anyone remembers of me, that’s fine with me,” he comments about his perennial Christmas popularity. “It is a truly inspired piece of music.” Happily, there were more successes to come. The hit Change My Mind earned John a Top-5 spot on the Country music charts in 1996. She’s Taken a Shine became an even bigger hit in 1997. Both fans and the media took note again when There He Goes was released as a 1999 duet with Patsy Cline. In 2002, Berry returned to making records for his own company, Clear Sky Records. Songs and Stories, a double CD, was issued that year. In 2003, John Berry released his I Give My Heart collection and its critically applauded wedding anthem Will You Marry Me. The disc also contained his versions of such classic love songs as Time in a Bottle, If, Love Look What You’ve Done to Me, Faithfully, Lady and Let’s Stay Together. I Give My Heart inspired still another popular concert series, The Love Tour. In 2008, Those Were the Days, was released, marking John’s return to mainstream country music. He created his first Christian-music CD in 2011. In 2012, John published the combination book and CD, again titled Songs and Stories. Over the years, he has continued to tour steadily. “We just have a great group of fans who welcome us every year. They are always there.” In late 2015, John launched a crowd-funded Kickstarter project that proved very successful. Overwhelmed by the fan response, John assembled an all-star studio team and cut both a Country album entitled What I Love the Most and a new album simply titled Christmas and released both in late 2016. Blessed with the ability to make the music he wanted to make (and not what a label dictated) allowed John the time to write and create what many music critics who have heard bits & pieces are saying could be his best, most complete project yet. “I'm excited to have been able to release this new music and bring it to the fans through a new distribution agreement with Sony RED. It’s a new time in the music business and technology allows me to be closer to my fans and interact in new ways. You know, God just keeps blessing me. There are new opportunities coming at every turn.” “With time, I’ve learned that the road to fulfillment is doing what I was called to do, love to do, and then doing it the best I can, regardless of the circumstances. And for me, that is making music and singing for people." 2017 found John touring in several configurations (acoustic solo, acoustic trio and full band) culminating in the year-ending legendary Christmas Tour, marking its 21st year this year. Also, in August of 2017, John launched a new, weekly, internationally syndicated television show entitled Songs and Stories with John Berry that explored the songs and stories that changed the lives of his weekly guest. Superstar guests in Season 1 of the show include Billy Ray Cyrus, Billy Dean, Mo Pitney, Neal McCoy, Suzy Bogguss, Collin Raye, Craig Morgan, Mark Wills, Delbert McClinton, Clay Walker, and Lee Roy Parnell. He followed up a successful Season 1 with Season 2 that showcased artists like Steve Dorff, Mac McAnally, Bryan White, John Schneider, Radney Foster, Terri Clark, Tracy Lawrence, Darryl Worley, Pam Tillis, Rhonda Vincent, newcomers Sean Berry, Preston James and Blane Howard and closing out the season with the legendary group, Exile. Songs and Stories with John Berry aired for two years, multiple times weekly to over 105 million homes across the United States as well as the UK and New Zealand on great networks like Heartland Television, The Family Channel, The Country Channel, Phil Mack’s Keep it Country (UK), Country TV (New Zealand) and Ride TV. Along with Season 2 of Songs and Stories with John Berry, 2018 saw John celebrating his 25th anniversary since signing his major label deal, touring the country, being recognized by the State of Georgia with a proclamation naming a day in his honor, receiving the key to the city in his old hometown of Athens, Georgia after a sold out return show there (celebration his first show in an Athens club in 25 years), being featured in the critically acclaimed major motion picture “Beautifully Broken” by singing the title cut, which saw him notch his first Top 30 Country in hit in 22 years, releasing a new recording project which contains several songs John co-wrote that celebrates his life, entitles “Thomas Road” and ended with his celebrated Christmas tour, the 22nd annual tour. 2019 proved to be another surprising year, with health challenges kicking it off. In January, John was diagnosed with cancer of his tonsils and had them removed. That was followed by 7 rounds of chemo and 35 rounds of radiation. He took the first 4 months of the year off to recuperate and his treatments successfully removed the cancer before resuming and singing as if it never happened. John took advantage of being off the road for the bigger part of 2020 and created new opportunities to continue his reach to his fan base and reach new ones. Highlights include partnering with Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt for his weekly series, "Songs and Stories For Kids," which charted multiple times on the Pollstar Live Stream Chart. He released a new video and re-recorded a new single for "The Graduation Song," and with his wife Robin, launched a new podcast, Faith Family & Friends with John & Robin Berry, which to date has featured an array of interesting and famous guests from across the spectrum of interests including Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Richie Furay, Country & Gospel Music Hall of Fame member (and former Statler Brother) Jimmy Fortune, Country Music Hall of Fame member (and Oak Ridge Boy) Duane Allen, Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Hamilton, former University of Georgia College Football coaching legend Vince Dooley, Country Music greats Billy Dean, Darryl Worley, Charlie Daniels (in his last public interview). Also featured are best selling authors Kim Campbell (widow of music great Glen Campbell) and Megan Alexander (Inside Edition National correspondent & co-host of Circle TV’s Coffee Country & Cody show) and many others. In 2022 he released the faith-based album Find My Joy on Gaither Music and supported it with church performances alongside his regular solo and band shows. Berry is a member of the North American Country Music Association International Hall of Fame and the South Carolina Entertainment & Music Hall of Fame and is currently celebrating several major anniversaries in 2025 and 2026 including the 30th Anniversaries of hit singles “Standing On The Edge Of Goodbye” (Feb 2025), “I Think About It All The Time” (June 2025), “O Holy Night” (Sept 2025), and “If I Had Any Pride Left At All” (Oct 2025). 2026 will see the 30th Anniversaries of hit singles “Change My Mind” (July 2026), “She's Taken A Shine” (Nov 2026), and his “Christmas With John Berry” will hit a milestone with the 30th anniversary tour. Berry recently completed his 29th Annual “Christmas With John Berry” Tour and is making plans for a very special 30th Annual “Christmas With John Berry”. “I think I am a few years behind Kenny Rogers when it comes to Christmas tours in country music,” shares John. “That’s hard to comprehend.”

KOSMIC: A Janis Joplin Tribute feat. Cari Hutson & Good Company with The South Austin Moonlighters
The 04 Center
Cari Hutson is a powerhouse vocalist from Austin, TX. She has been enchanting audiences in the Central Texas area for over two decades. Hutson studied Musical Theatre at Texas State University in the late "90s and found herself hitting the original music scene of Austin in the early 2000's with her bands "Remedy" and "Blu Funk Junction". It was during that time that she first found her love of Janis Joplin, often covering songs like, "Try" and "Me & Bobby McGee". But years would transpire before her career would come full circle and her theatre roots would collide with live music performance. In 2013 Cari was cast to perform as Janis(alternate/lead) in " A Night with Janis Joplin" by Randy Johnson. The show opened at The ZACH Theatre in Austin, TX. the fall of 2013 and then traveled to the San Jose Repertory Theatre in San Jose, Ca. In the closing week of the show Hutson was surprised by a phone call from non other than Dave Getz-drummer of Janis's backing band "Big Brother and the Holding Company"! He had seen one of Hutson's performances as Janis and called to congratulate her on a winning and inspiring show. It was from that first telephone call that Getz and Hutson's friendship began. In 2016 Hutson and her band "Good Company" recorded Hutson's second record. “Songs like “Burn” and the title track were gritty to the core, and her “wail” was very much accounted for — bolder than ever, in fact, after having been exercised to peak form during Hutson’s time performing and touring as “Janis” herself in the Joplin Estate sanctioned theatrical production, A Night with Janis Joplin. Among the new fans (and friends) she won over through that adventure was none other than original Big Brother and the Holding Company drummer Dave Getz, who was so taken with Hutson’s performance that he offered her the prize of “Can’t Be the Only One,” a song he’d written with lyrics Joplin had left behind but never had the chance to sing herself. That very song would find itself on the record. Hutson and Good Company’s recording of the song did it proud.” “Her interpretation of the lyric and her roots, blues feel brings the song to life,” noted a duly impressed Getz. “If Janis could hear it (and maybe she can), I think she would be pleased.”-Dave Getz Shortly after Hutson returned to her home of Austin, TX. she put together a birthday celebration tribute to Janis Joplin that ended up being an Annual Event that took place at various venues in town. After 2020, the show was rebranded as “Kosmic- A Janis Joplin Tribute”, taking on a new energy with new theatrical elements added to the experience. This year is Kosmic’s first year at the 04 Center and is sure to the best yet! Currently fronting her band Cari Hutson & Good Company, she has 3 records of original material under her belt with more on the way. You can catch her monthly at The Saxon Pub. --

South Austin Song Circle: J.D. Graham, Ryan Culwell, Ben Danaher & Mike McClure
The 04 Center
JD Graham is an Americana singer-songwriter whose raw, soul-baring music weaves tales of redemption, faith, and hard-won sobriety. An Oklahoma native , Graham’s early life was marked by a 25-year battle with drug addiction, beginning with a prescription for anxiety at age 11 and spiraling into a world of reckless living. His journey took a pivotal turn in 2017 after a catastrophic car accident led to a five-year prison sentence in Arizona. There, stripped of distractions, Graham confronted his demons, found solace in faith, and rediscovered his purpose through music. In an unprecedented move, he recorded his debut album, Razor Wire Sunrise, within the walls of Arizona State Prison, inspired by the stark beauty of his cell’s view and the weight of his past decisions.Graham’s time in prison also sparked a transformative music program that he taught alongside other inmates raising over $20,000 in donations and leaving a lasting impact on inmate population through a curriculum that fostered purpose and self-expression. Since his release, he has channeled his experiences into a prolific songwriting career, blending the raw honesty of influences like John Moreland, Brandon Jenkins and Jason Isbell with his own confessional style. His 2023 album, Pound of Rust, recorded at Skinny Elephant in East Nashville with producer Neilson Hubbard and songwriter Ryan Culwell, is a haunting testament to accountability and resilience. The album’s unadorned, guitar-driven sound captures the essence of a man with nothing left to hide, earning him a place on the national touring circuit making appearances at Mile 0 Festival and Born & Raised Festival. In July 2024, Graham released his highly anticipated album Sergeant of Sorrow, further cementing his reputation as a songwriter’s songwriter. His performances, whether in intimate listening rooms or at songwriter festivals, hold audiences captive with their sincerity and emotional depth. For Graham, music is about connection—reaching a stranger’s heart through a song or a conversation at a barstool. Fueled by faith, sobriety, and an unwavering commitment to truth, JD Graham’s music is a powerful reflection of his journey from darkness to redemption, resonating with listeners seeking hope and human connection. -- Walk around throwing punches everywhere and you’ll earn yourself an almighty ass whooping. Keep your hands in your pockets all day, though, and you’ll start to feel like you’ve already whooped your own. It’s a paradox that Ryan Culwell finds himself wrestling with frequently on his extraordinary new album, Run Like A Bull. Recorded with longtime collaborator Neilson Hubbard (Mary Gauthier, Kim Richey), the collection is raw and magnetic, cutting close to the bone as it searches for a middle ground between release and restraint, recklessness and responsibility. Culwell faces down his own worst instincts here, grappling with weighty, existential notions the way Flannery O’Connor might, conjuring up images of alternating beauty and brutality set against a distinctly American backdrop. “We all laugh when a young calf struggles to his feet,” Culwell sings in his gritty rasp. “When an old bull falls down on his ass I guess it ain’t so sweet.” Born and raised in the Texas panhandle, Culwell earned widespread acclaim with his first two albums, 2015’s Flatlands and 2018’s The Last American, which prompted Rolling Stone to hail his writing as both “gorgeous and bleak” and NPR to rave that his songs “wring grace from plain and often dark details.” The music earned Culwell dates with Patty Griffin, Billy Joe Shaver, Hayes Carll, Patrick Sweany, and Ashley Monroe among others, alongside a full calendar of his own headline shows around the country and millions of streams across platforms. -- Ben Danaher writes songs like he’s lived every line—and most of them, he has. The newly Texas based songwriter has spent the last decade turning personal truth into timeless songs, carving out a space where country, soul, and Americana meet with grit and grace. His new EP, Strangers, out August 8th, is Danaher at his most raw and revealing. Across five hauntingly honest tracks, he explores distance—between people, within ourselves, and from the lives we thought we’d be living by now. Anchored by the standout single “Professional Stranger,” the EP captures the quiet ache of feeling disconnected in a world that’s always performing. Danaher’s voice—both literal and lyrical—has earned comparisons to Jason Isbell and Chris Stapleton, but his perspective is uniquely his own: shaped by loss, sharpened by years on the road, and softened by hard-won self-awareness. With Strangers, Ben Danaher doesn’t just share songs. He holds up a mirror—and somehow makes the loneliness feel a little less lonely. -- To look at the last few years of Mike McClure’s life is to understand that there has been a life-altering awakening. It’s been a time of reckoning, renewal and growth for the singer, songwriter, artist and producer — a five-year span that’s resulted in Looking Up, 10 tracks that find him getting sober, wrestling with insecurity, finding a new love for both himself and others, and working to understand the new light he’s found in discovering that the best moments in life come from being present. Within these tracks, it’s clear that every piece of Mike McClure’s life is in the midst of changing — and he’s finally seeing that as a good thing.
