The evening opens with a special full-circle moment, as rising voices from Stages Music School and standout young performers take the stage from 6:00–6:45 PM.
It’s an especially meaningful homecoming, because Grace Campbell herself grew up with Stages, making this kickoff a beautiful reflection of the creative roots that helped shape her journey, and the next generation now following in those footsteps.
⭐ Grace Campbell takes the stage from 7:00–9:00 PM
Originally from Princeton, West Virginia, Grace Campbell returns home for this special kickoff after an incredible breakout year. Fresh off being named Born & Bred’s Best Artist of 2025, and riding the momentum of her stunning new release Hold Me Still, Grace brings a sound that beautifully blends heart, story, and soul.
Her music is beautifully genre-defying, weaving together pop, country, rock, and jazz influences into something wholly her own.

This concert is part of the 20th Anniversary Season of RiffRaff Arts Collective, a nonprofit committed to the power of music and the arts to spark healing and inspire change in downtown Princeton and beyond.
This is more than a concert—it’s a celebration of art, hometown talent, creative legacy, and the season ahead.
Come help us kick off First Fridays in the most beautiful way possible. 💛
