In 2026, The Eastern Wharf Riverfront Concert Series, which is curated by Savannah Stopover Music Festival, has featured Atlanta favorites Improvement Movement, Talking Heads tribute band Same As It Ever Was and Athens, Ga. heavyweights Futurebirds, who drew more than 4,000 people to the riverfront on Friday, May 22.

“We’ve had amazing attendance at our Riverfront Concert Series this year and love seeing Savannah turn out to support live music on the river, particularly when we get to shine a spotlight on our local bands,” said Kayne Lanahan, Executive Director of Eastern Wharf’s Commercial District programming. “We look forward to hosting Damon and the Shitkickers for an unforgettable, foot-stomping, one-night-only concert on June 19th.”

A true Savannah favorite, Damon and the Shitkickers deliver gritty honky-tonk with confidence and Southern swagger. This veteran Savannah band and multi-time “Best Country Band” winner stands apart as Savannah’s undisputed honky-tonk heavyweights, known for their roots-driven country sound and no-nonsense live shows.

Voted Best Country Band in Savannah for many years, this veteran outfit is led by guitarist and vocalist Damon Mailand, who brings a confident, high-energy presence to every performance. With raw vocals, twangy guitars, and a rhythm section built for boot-stompin’, Damon and the Shitkickers delivers classic country with edge and attitude.
