Emerald City was excited to be among the great musicians chosen for such an amazing event.  The V8 Ranch in Lubbock, TX was an incredible venue for one of this year’s parties. With beautiful weather, amazing food, a full bar and everyone dressed in thier country attire, these guests were ready to party the night away.

Restless Heart took the stage first to warm up the crown before Emerald City finished off the night with a bang.
