While headlining several tours over his career and even opening for stars like Brad Paisley and Lady Antebellum, Darius Rucker decided to helm his own music festival. Over the past four years, the country singer teamed up with SRE Entertainment to put on the Riverfront Revival Music Festival. Growing up in Charleston, Rucker never forgot about his upbringing and sought to take over North Carolina’s Riverfront Park. And bringing the festival back in 2025, Rucker produced one of his most ambitious lineups yet.
Sharing a poster of the upcoming festival on Instagram, Rucker revealed that the lineup consisted of Riley Green, Lukas Nelson, The Red Clay Strays, Whiskey Myers, Flatland Cavalry, Dylan Marlowe, Brittney Spencer, Clay Street Unit, Neon Union, Austin Williams, Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country, Kashus Culpepper, Warrick McZeke, Faith Schueler, Elizabeth Covington, and Whiskey Run.

Already a stellar lineup of performers, Rucker also announced a special performance from Bill Murray & His Blood Brothers. And before you look it up, yes – that Bill Murray. The famous actor joined forces with Mike Zito and Albert Castiglia to form the band. On January 3rd, the group took the stage at the Thalia Hall in Chicago. That was just the start as he looked to also perform in Atlanta, St. Louis, Austin, and De Moines.

As for the Riverfront Revival Music Festival, the event will kick off on October 10th and run until the following day. Thrilled to perform at the festival for another year, Rucker stated, “My love for Charleston has influenced so much of my career. Riverfront Revival, which made my longtime dream of bringing a music festival to this community a reality, is a celebration of the Lowcountry that gets better every year.”
