THE BAND LIGHT, Nashville’s rising pop-rock force, unites Jack Glenn (bass/vocals), Konnor Dolberry (lead vocals), Garrett Goodrich (lead guitar/vocals), and Trevor Young (drums/vocals), four lifelong performers who met at Summit High School in Spring Hill, Tennessee during a Footloose production that never opened but sparked a lasting bond instead. Calling themselves a “rock ’n’ roll boy band,” they fuse old-soul musicality with modern pop-rock energy, pairing nostalgic hooks with arena-ready charisma.
Their breakout live reputation has taken them from Penn State’s arena stage at THON and SuperGirl Surf Pro to BMI’s Nashville showcase and The Pop-Up series alongside The Jonas Brothers’ THE TOUR. In 2024, they supported Quarters of Change on their Portraits Tour and New Hope Club across the U.S. In 2025, they were hand-selected for Louis Tomlinson’s Away From Home Festival, marking a major milestone in their rapidly growing career.
Each winter, they return home for their signature Lightyear show, now entering its fourth annual edition, a hometown celebration of the band’s journey, community, and unmistakable light, drawing fans from all corners of the United States to be part of the experience.
Show Opener: Georgia Webster
Georgia Webster grew up in a small town in western Massachusetts, where quiet days and wide-open space gave her the freedom to write songs from a young age. With a guitar in hand and artists like Taylor Swift, Coldplay, and Avril Lavigne in her headphones, she found her voice early—and it didn’t take long for others to notice. After building a devoted audience online, Georgia made the move to Nashville, where she quickly found herself opening for artists she grew up listening to, including Kelsea Ballerini and Ingrid Andress.
Now stepping into her next chapter, Georgia is embracing a pop-driven sound that blends the warmth and storytelling of early 2000s pop rock—pulling inspiration from artists like Sheryl Crow, Jewel, and Tori Kelly—with the intimacy and emotional honesty of modern voices like Gracie Abrams and Maggie Rogers. But it’s not just about the music…it’s about the message. Georgia is becoming a voice for the next generation of female songwriters, creating a space where people can be themselves, share the stories that make them human, and connect beyond the screen. Whether she’s writing, performing, or building community in real life, her mission is clear: have fun, care deeply, and help others feel seen through creativity.
Show Opener: Carter Rubin
20-year-old native New Yorker Carter Rubin projects his voice with every inch of his being, delivering emotion and truth in equal measure. Coming off of his success winning Season 19 of NBC’s The Voice and becoming the youngest male winner at 15 years old, Carter’s vocals and attention-grabbing stage presence has grown exponentially since. Now living in Nashville, Carter infuses shades of new-world Pop and ballads straight from the heart in his new music, honing in on his vulnerability through storytelling. His writing style connects him to his listeners as they navigate the stages of life and everything in between.
