Jul 8    The Buchanan Boys Performance
Looking for a countrified rock and roll good time with a twist? Then look no further than Buchanan Boys! Hailing from the Great Smoky Mountains of Western North Carolina, the five-piece band owes its sound to the blend of each member's eclectic tastes in music. With a style similar to that of current mega stars like Jason Aldean and Zac Brown Band, the band effortlessly mixes different genres into a tasty recipe sure to leave the listener satisfied and craving more! Founding members Chris Pressley (lead vocals / acoustic guitar) and Neal Morgan both have deep-rooted histories in the Appalachian Mountains with families that settled in Jackson County over 100 years ago. Now Pressley, along with Adam Blythe (lead guitar), Sam McCarson (backing vocals / bass), Michael Cannon (drums), and Mike Yow (backing vocals/rhythm guitar/ strings) now call the same mountains home. Blythe, McCarson, Cannon, and Yow all attended Western Carolina University.

Jul 26    Two Novels of Suspense and Romance

North Carolina author and storyteller, Sheri Wren Haymore will visit City Lights Bookstore on Saturday, July 26th at 3 p.m. to present her two novels, A Higher Voice and A Deeper Cut. Her novels feature characters with flaws and she tends to as she puts it, “to squish a character until he pops and see what pours out. Or more specifically, what pours back in.” Her books have been described as a blend of Mary Higgins Clark, James Patterson and Nicholas Sparks.


Sheri grew up in Mt. Airy, NC, and still lives thereabouts with her husband and a pup named Cercie. Together, they've made a living running a couple of small business, and made a life doing the things they enjoy--traveling, hiking, camping, kayaking. Sheri loves music and yoga, inventing gourmet meals from random ingredients, laughing with friends, and most especially spending time with her daughter. A graduate of High Point University, she has burned more pages than most people will ever write, and is currently scribbling a third novel, which may or may not survive the flames.
