Country Hit-Maker Strummin’ @ Red Clay
Chuck Cannon doesn’t chase the spotlight… But he sure knows how to write for it! With a pen behind Toby Keith’s “How Do You Like Me Now?!” and John Michael Montgomery’s “I Love the Way You Love Me,” Cannon’s songs helped shape an era of country music that still hits like it did the first time. On Saturday, May 10, he’ll bring those hits—and the stories that shaped them—to Eddie Owens Presents: @ The Red Clay Music Foundry in Duluth for a rare solo show.
This is a night for people who care about the why behind the words. Because Cannon’s set is more than a concert… It’s a real conversation about where a song starts, what it almost became, and how it finds its way to the radio. He’s got a low-key delivery, honest stories, and his moments in between are often just as powerful as the choruses themselves.
A Venue That Hits the Right Note
The Red Clay Music Foundry is the kind of place where music breathes a little easier. You’ll find it in the heart of downtown Duluth, where a “listening room” is more than concert hall. It’s intimate, very acoustic-friendly, and steeped in Southern charm! Founded by late Georgia music legend Eddie Owen (yep, that Eddie from Eddie’s Attic), the venue has a reputation for spotlighting the songwriters who make the stars shine.
When a storyteller like Cannon walks in, it’s a homecoming of sorts! Georgia’s long been a proving ground for great American music, and Red Clay continues that tradition one verse at a time.
What to Expect!
- A rare solo performance from one of Nashville’s songwriting elite
- Intimate storytelling, acoustic sets, and behind-the-scenes tales
- A venue that prioritizes sound, soul, and the South
Whether you’re a Toby Keith diehard, a John Michael Montgomery fan, or just someone who appreciates a song with soul… This one-night-only performance is definitely worth your Saturday night. Chuck Cannon’s songs are footprints that paved the way for some of the best late 90s/early 2000s country hits. And Red Clay is exactly the kind of Georgia ground they’re made for.
