“One of the most requested singers on the show is a fella who only has two songs recorded that we play, but he will be there for the 12th anniversary show,” Swindle promised on his Facebook page.

That “fella” is his brother, and business partner Mike Swindle who will be singing a classic Merle song.
“Tune in. We got a good line up and a few more surprise local artists in store to entertain you,” Swindle said.
