Hannah Dasher on stage at the GOM+SF!
Music Row predicted she’ll be the Next Big Thing, about the same time the guitar goddess became a Fender Next artist and a CMT Next Women of Country. But Whiskey Riff believes Hannah Dasher is still “one of Nashville’s best kept secrets, much like Chris Stapleton used to be.” They claim she’s one of the best live acts they’ve seen in a long time. A true entertainer from Effingham, GA, she’s amassed over 1.5M followers on TikTok and has become a viral sensation on other platforms.
Opening up for Sara Evans and Clint Black, Hannah will be hitting the stage on Saturday, October 26th from 5:30-6:30pm. Get your tickets at goseafoodfestival.com 🎶
October is finally here and we know what that means...GOM+SF time! Premium tickets for Saturday night are SOLD OUT. Friday night Premium is still available. General admission is still available for both nights.

Opening up for The Marshall Tucker Band at this year’s GOM+SF is Trea Landon! Born in Daisy, Georgia, Trea landed a publishing deal within four weeks of his arrival in Nashville in 2015. A major label deal with Warner Music Nashville followed just two years later.
Trea’s lilting voice lends itself to both stadium ready rockers and acoustic-backed love songs. He effortlessly combines a traditional tone with a modern edge.
We are one month away from Trea hitting the stage on Friday, October 25 from 7:30-8:30pm. Get your tickets now at goseafoodfestival.com 🎶
The Great Ogeechee Seafood Festival was created by the local Chamber of Commerce and, with Charlie Stafford at the helm, had its debut at the Kilkenny Fisherman’s Co-op in 1985.
The original intent ... to raise money for local non-profit organizations.
For four years, the event grew and grew, bringing people from all across the southeast to Richmond Hill for a full-filled weekend of delicious seafood and entertainment to benefit the community’s local non-profit organizations. The event eventually fizzled when the facility (Fisherman’s Co-op) could no longer accommodate the ever-expanding crowd.
Fast forward to 1998 when then Mayor Richard Davis approached the RHBC Chamber of Commerce about resurrecting the Seafood Festival. That year about 8,500 people attended the weekend-long event at J.F. Gregory Park, the Festival’s new and current location.
Over the years, the Festival has continued to grow and each year on the third weekend in October, Richmond Hill welcomes about 30,000 Festival goers.
Big names have headlined the Seafood Festival: Gregg Allman, Charlie Daniels, the Atlanta Rhythm Section, Eddie Money, 38 Special, Collective Soul and Joe Nichols, just to name a few.
The success of the Seafood Festival in due in large part to the hundreds of volunteers who make it happen each year. Bolstered by the members of the Richmond Hill/Bryan County Commerce, the event continues to attract more and more people every year.
