Celebrating its 35th season of amazing free music at Miller Plaza, Nightfall continues this Friday, August 26, with Road to Nightfall winner Lilac Line, with another RTN finalist, Cosmic Twelve, opening the show.
Lilac Line, this year’s Road to Nightfall competition winner, is an alternative rock band based out of Chattanooga.The band was originally formed by Trent Walliser (vocals, rhythm guitar) and Cameron Webb (drums) in April of 2020. They added Andrew Soucie (lead guitar) and Paul Graves (bass) shortly after.
Inspired by artists like Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Cage The Elephant, Arctic Monkeys, Queens of the Stone Age, and Kings of Leon, they seek to dive into all genres of rock through their original music.
Lilac Line released their first EP in 2021 and have since recorded with Jeremy Ferguson (Nashville producer of Cage The Elephant) and Nathan Hardy (Lead singer and songwriter of Microwave). The band just released their first full length album “Out The Window” this summer. They will pay a 90 minute set from 8:00-9:30pm.
Cosmic Twelve is a local trio who plays progressive metal music. Their energetic, theme-based shows earned them a place as a finalist at Road to Nightfall this year. Their opening set will begin at 7pm.
