NWSCC hosts Party with the Patriots on July 27

Northwest Shoals Community College (NWSCC) will host Party with the Patriots, a W.C. Handy Music Festival event, featuring the Midnighters and Winston Ramble on July 27, from 6-8:00 p.m. in front of the fountain on the Shoals campus.

​The Midnighters are a staple of entertainment for the W.C. Handy Music Festival and in the Shoals. The six-person soul band has been performing in the Shoals since 1986. Band members include Earnest Davis, James Roy, Barry Billings, Marcus Burke, Libby Counts and James Counts.

​The southern rock band Winston Ramble originated in Winston County Alabama. They now perform all over the Southeast entertaining their audiences with their self-proclaimed, “Alabama style, southern-fried rock n’ roll.”

​The event will be free and open to the public. It will include live music, food trucks, a car show and an opportunity to spend time with NWSCC Patriot coaches and players. Guests are encouraged to bring outdoor folding chairs.
