Get Ready for a Musical Treat in Aiken!

Aiken, mark your calendars! On Saturday, November 9, the Etherredge Center is hosting a lively concert featuring the dynamic country music duo, The Wildcards. If you love a mix of rhythm and melody, this is one event you won’t want to miss!

The Wildcards: Who Are They?

The Wildcards are composed of two incredibly talented musicians: Andrea Young, a brilliant fiddle player, and Ashley Gearing, a captivating singer and guitar player. Together, they’ve found a way to combine their individual musical brilliance into something truly magical. Both have experienced success in their solo careers and shared stages with some of the biggest names in the industry. Talk about impressive!

For those who might not know, Andrea made waves in the music world at the tender age of 12, releasing her first single and becoming the youngest female to ever chart on the Billboard charts. That’s right—she broke a record previously held for 46 years! And Ashley isn’t far behind; her captivating voice and guitar skills have left fans wanting more.

A Match Made in Music Heaven

These two powerhouse performers didn’t just come together by chance. They forged their bond while touring with the acclaimed band, Farewell Angelina, where they were proud cultural ambassadors for the U.S. During the global pandemic, they decided to dive deeper into songwriting, and it became clear: the music they were creating together needed its own stage. And thus, The Wildcards were born, always known for being a little unpredictable and a lot of fun!
