What a night! Last night, Applebee’s front man and Monument Records‘ skyrocketing country star Walker Hayes had us all on our feet dancing #FancyLike on the field at Firefly Distillery. Walker kicked off the night with an exclusive 4-song set in the VIP Acoustic Session with several lucky 92.5 Kickin’ Country winners and stayed for a meet n’ greet and photo opp.

Later, on the main stage, the field was soggy, but the mud couldn’t stop the party! Proceeds from the show raised a generous $10,000 for the MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital, a cause near to Walker’s heart. 92.5 Kickin’ Country presented the check to a patient family accepting the money o behalf of the hospital. Then the party got started.

Walker played favorites from past albums like “Craig” and “Dollar Store,” introduced us to a few new songs including “U Gurl” that had us out of our seats and, of course, “Fancy Like.”

Thanks to Firefly Distillery for the hospitality, Baker Buick GMC and Dixie Furniture for sponsoring, Walker and Monument Records for the unforgettable show and the Kickin’ country fans who braved the mud and brought their bougiest dance moves to the party. We can’t wait to do it again!
