Live Music at Pretoria Fields: Eric Hatcher

Saturday, January 24 | 7–10PM

We’re excited to welcome Eric Hatcher to Pretoria Fields for a live performance on Saturday night, January 24.

Eric is a well-known, multi-talented musician here in southwest Georgia, recognized for his easygoing stage presence, rich vocals, and ability to move effortlessly between instruments. He’s played everything from intimate rooms to large local venues, building a loyal following along the way with a sound that feels both polished and genuine.

If you’re looking for a relaxed night out with great music, good beer, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile, this is one you won’t want to miss.

Music starts at 7PM and goes until 10. Come early, grab a drink, and settle in.

Join us Saturday, January 17 at 7PM for live music at Pretoria Fields with Wendell Brooks.

Wendell’s sound blends blues, Southern rock, and jam band energy, pulling influence from the Grateful Dead, Widespread Panic, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Zach Bryan. It’s guitar forward, groove driven, and built for a crowd that likes to listen and settle in.

Whether you’ve caught him with Whiskey Stallions or you’re hearing him solo for the first time, expect a solid set that feels familiar without ever feeling stale.

Free show. All ages welcome. Come spend your Saturday night with us.

Saturday, January 10TH @ 7PM

Pretoria Fields welcomes back Andy Johnson, an award-winning roots music maker from middle Georgia.

He regularly plays stages of all sizes and varieties, all over the southeastern United States, and known far beyond.

Johnson's solo travels regularly land him as a passenger on Uncle Dave's Waycross Stagecoach, a throwback variety show that is gaining attention with sold out shows across the US. Other acts regularly featured are Dave Griffin, The Pine Box Dwellers and The Page Brothers Band.

Johnson has performed at some of the southeast's most esteemed venues, and worked under the tutelage of some of southern music's pioneers, such as Hall of Fame producer Paul Hornsby, and R&B guitar legend Robert Lee Coleman. Andy won the Atlanta Blues Challenge in consecutive years (2016-2017) as a member of the duo Dos Blues Guys. He fronted the popular middle GA blues/rock band Royal Johnson from 2014-2019.

Notable co-bills in Johnson's career include The Doobie Brothers, Willie Nelson, Grand Funk Railroad, Bob Margolin, Joan Osborne, Cowboy, Jimmy Hall, Stillwater, Jack Pearson, Randall Bramblett, Old Crow Medicine Show, The Avett Brothers, Greensky Bluegrass, The Steeldrivers, Drivin' n' Cryin', Brent Cobb, Audley Freed, Infamous Stringdusters, Marcus King, Cody and Luther Dickinson, Roosevelt Collier, The Autumn Defense, Chris Knight, Turnpike Troubadours, Bobby Lee Rodgers, Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio and Band of Heathens.

Find him on Apple Music, Spotify & more..trust us you’ll add every song

Saturday’s a real good night to be at the brewery as we welcome Albany’s own Evan Barber to the stage. If you’ve ever been in his orbit, you already know, if you’ve never caught a show, trust us. He is the vibe. 🕶️

SATURDAY • DEC 20 • 7-10PM • NO COVER • PUPS WELCOME 🐾

Evan Barber is no stranger to the Americana/roots music scene in the south. The Albany, Georgia native has been writing, recording, and touring across his native territory for the better part of the past decade. He’s cut his teeth sharing the stage with the likes of Chris Stapleton, Blackberry Smoke, Jason Isbell, and the Drive-by Truckers — just to name a few. His songs are sketches of the American South; honest-to-goodness stories lifted from the prairies situated below the heart of Appalachia.

Check him out online 🔗

Find him on Apple Music, Spotify, Reverb Nation, SoundCloud & YouTube 🎶

We will be closed, Thursday, December 18th for a Private Event, and we will reopen regular business hours, on Friday December 19th. We greatly appreciate your support, cheers!

…they’re back 🌖 if you missed them last time, here’s your sign….

White Dog Howl is a soulful, blues-driven trio hailing from Panama City Beach, Florida. Formed in early 2025, the band brings together three seasoned musicians whose deep Southern roots and brother-like bond give their music a rare authenticity. Their sound—raw, rootsy, and rich with emotion—is built on the traditions of southern rock, soul, and Americana, blending originals with spirited covers of artists like Tyler Childers, ZZ Top, Billy Strings, CCR, and The Funky Meters.

Guitarist and producer Blake English is a Grammy-nominated multi-instrumentalist who grew up surrounded by music and has toured nationally with artists across genres. A former member of Few Miles South, Blake brings a sharp ear, powerful playing, and studio savvy to the band’s creative engine. He met Matt Hunter, a dynamic drummer and vocalist, when Matt was filling in on drums with Few Miles South. Their musical chemistry was instant, sparking not just a project, but a brotherhood.

Matt’s own roots run deep—his father, Larry Hunter, was the drummer for 70s southern rock band Beaverteeth, and Matt was raised in the legendary Muscle Shoals scene. His soulful, Levon Helm-like vocals and rhythmic feel give White Dog Howl a driving heartbeat. Completing the trio is Ian Shafer, bassist, vocalist, and lifelong friend of Matt. The two have played together since childhood, with Ian’s songwriting and devotion to the bass grounding the band’s sound in groove and grit.

Now reunited and reignited, the trio is writing and recording their debut album at Southern Fried Sound, Blake’s home studio. Their first single is set to release in Summer 2025, followed by a run of live shows throughout the Southeast and a short summer tour out West. Whether on stage or in the studio, White Dog Howl is the sound of friendship, fire, and the spirit of the South—howling loud and proud.

Show starts at 8PM
