“Drivin N Cryin” tops a new list of talented musical acts announced today as Decatur WatchFest ‘26 finalizes its concert schedule during FIFA World Cup 2026™. All 14 of these additional concerts are free, no ticket required, and will be held on the Decatur Square.
These performances will complement the three ticket-required concerts with Big Boi (June 11), The War And Treaty (June 25), and Indigo Girls (July 19) as well as additional acts previously announced for a total of 34 days of music and matches. Details on the final concerts are noted below.
Drivin N Cryin is an American rock band whose roots-forward sound and uncompromising spirit have made them a vital force since forming in Atlanta in 1985. Blending Southern rock grit, folk storytelling, and hard-charging rock & roll, the band built a reputation early on as a must-see live act and a songwriter’s band with depth far beyond trends. Led by singer-songwriter Kevin Kinney and anchored by bassist Tim Nielsen and drummer Dave Johnson, Drivin N Cryin broke through nationally songs like “Fly Me Courageous,” “Honeysuckle Blue,” “Straight to Hell,” “Build a Fire,” and “Scarred But Smarter.”
