Revisiting Creedence

Featuring powerhouse performers Dan McGuinness and Kurt Griffey, who for a decade rocked stages worldwide with Creedence Clearwater Revival's founding members Stu Cook and Doug “Cosmo” Clifford, this is a show you won't want to miss. Even though Cook and Clifford have retired from touring, the magic of Creedence continues through Griffey (lead guitar) and McGuinness (lead vocal), making music and winning hearts and ears across the globe. Rolling Stone recently declared that "Creedence were America's biggest band in the summer of '69," and astonishingly, they remain a dominant force in 2024, with their greatest hits album, “Chronicle,” charting above current and contemporary superstar acts. This enduring legacy speaks to the timeless appeal of CCR's music, which Revisiting Creedence brings to life with pedigree, unmatched energy, experience and authenticity. Clifford says, “After 25 years of traveling with Revisited, Stu Cook and I decided to retire, but you can still get that great sound with Kurt Griffey and Dan McGuinness and Revisiting Creedence.” Revisiting Creedence delivers more than just a concert; it's a full-throttle celebration that will have you dancing, singing, and feeling every note of CCR's iconic hits. Whether you're a lifelong fan or discovering the magic of Creedence for the first time, Revisiting Creedence will leave you mesmerized. The buzz from their recent Michigan show still lingers, with audiences praising it as "one of the best yet!"

Hiawassee Night Market

Hiawassee Town Square 19 S. Main Street., Hiawassee, Georgia, United States

The Hiawassee Night Market started with a conversation that generated after visiting another market in South Georgia and recognizing the need for a market like this, one where people of all ages could gather in an outdoor setting, enjoy local artists, food (fresh and prepared), with music. The Hiawassee Downtown Development Authority (DDA) knew that such a market aligned with their vision of what was needed in the downtown area and the Night Market was created. The concept was simple: offer art, live music, games, and food in an open outdoor setting that would be welcoming for guests of all ages. The artisans, growers and food at the market is remarkable. We hope that you will visit the Night Market and savor all that is home grown and handmade! Make sure to bring your lawn chair to sit a spell and enjoy the live music. Click here for a complete listing of current vendors. Always free admission and parking is free too! Don’t forget to stop by the DDA booth to say hello, we look forward to seeing you at the Market!
