Singer-songwriter Brad Byrd will be featured at 10 pm on Boston's 92.5 The River on Wednesday, September 1st during their Homegrown showcase. Rockport Festivals is pretty excited about this because, not only is Brad a great musician, he is our musician, hailing from Rockport, Mass.

Check him out tomorrow night online or at 92.5 on your radio and be sure to come down to Rockport on Saturday, October 16th, during HarvestFest to hear Brad Byrd in person!
