HEADLINING ARTIST: The Sensational Barnes Brothers
The Sensational Barnes Brothers are a melting pot of old and new, blending gospel soul, R&B, and roots to create a sound that reflects the music of their history. Before forming the duo, The Sensational Barnes Brothers, Courtney and Chris performed with the rest of their family as the Barnes Family.
Inspired by their shared past, fueled by harmonies that resonate with both their blood and their kindred spirits, The Sensational Barnes Brothers see themselves singing, playing, and dancing for a long time to come.
