The Marcus King Band Family Reunion wrapped another successful weekend of music and fun Aug. 23-24 in North Charleston after being moved from Firefly Distillery to the North Charleston Coliseum due to inclement weather.

The two-day festival was inspired by King’s treks to his great grandparents’ home for front porch pickin’ and covered dishes, and this year featured performances by Jamey Johnson, Molly Tuttle, Marcus King & Friends, Leah Blevins, Pearl, Stephen Wilson, Jr., Hiss Golden Messenger, Joshua Ray Walker, Henry’s Pocket and the Marcus King Band.

Some of the best barbecue in the South was available for sampling as well, with renowned pitmasters All Pro Smoke Show’s Andy Knudson, Will Andrews of Rolling Bones, Aaron Siegel & Taylor Garrigan of Home Team BBQ, and Matt Register of Southern Smoke live fire cooking whole hog, beef ribs, chicken, fish, seafood, coal-roasted root vegetables, and more all weekend long.

$1 from every ticket sold went to the Curfew Fellowship Fund, King’s charity, which provides and assists those struggling with sobriety and addiction, and also helps fund music education.
