Cody Canada and the Departed will be the headlining act for Cow Island LIVE! 2018. Currently touring and promoting their latest album “3”, this record has been described as “fourteen songs that blur the lines between hard-edged country, rock & roll, and all the gritty sounds in between.” A road warrior and prolific songwriter, Canada was the frontman of Cross Canadian Ragweed, a wildly influential band that dominated the Red Dirt scene for more than a decade. He made music that reached far beyond the genre’s borders, selling millions of albums and playing for huge audiences across the U.S. Since forming The Departed in 2011 Canada and his band have recorded 4 albums and have toured extensively selling out venues everywhere. Their live shows will leave a lasting impression on you and isn’t one to be missed!

Other musical acts taking the stage are local favorites Mike Dean, Troy Richard & the Richard Revue, Stephen Sagrera, Katherine Kirkpatrick, and up-and-coming songwriter Sara Douga. We are also proud to have Zack Logan of Nashville fresh off of his tour in the United Kingdom in support of Brent Cobb, where he has been promoting his new album “Raised by Wolves.” Also returning to the Cow Island LIVE! stage, are Texas honky-tonk southern rockers, The Captain Legendary Band. Cow Island LIVE! is an annual music festival where friends, old and new, from all walks of life, come together to celebrate and support live original music. Each year our festival goers are treated to a variety of music genres from artists that travel here from different parts of the country, as well as some of our finest local performers. Tent camping is encouraged as the festival is set out in a beautiful cluster of oak trees on an 11 acre field. Don’t forget to bring your chairs, your ice chest with your favorite beverage, and your dancin’ shoes.
