Black River Music Group artists Jeff Bates, Sarah Darling and Emma Jacob were in Fayetteville, NC to perform for WKML’s sold-out songwriter event recently. This is the fifth year for the show and the first time it sold out. While in town, the radio station received a call from local firefighters who wanted to attend the concert but couldn’t since they were on duty. When the artists found out they had fans at the fire company they decided to stop by for a visit.
