C2C Glasgow 2025 - Sunday Matinee Show

Country to Country returns to King Tut's for the official C2C Glasgow Matinee Shows. Sunday's lineup features Riley, Zach John King, + Bayker Blankenship   RILEY Rising Glaswegian songstress Riley blends Nashville-inspired pop production with her captivating storytelling lyrics. She has performed across the US, Canada, and Europe, including 3x at C2C Festival in Glasgow. With 70K+ organic Spotify streams, Riley’s quickly growing a loyal and supportive fanbase. She has supported notable acts like Tenille Arts, Sean C Kennedy, Nathan Evans, Tide Lines and her debut single "Go-Getter" cracked the Top 40 iTunes charts, while recent releases have garnered BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Introducing support. After a sold-out King Tut’s show in Glasgow and recognition from established artists like James Taylor and JP Saxe support her growing appeal, Riley is currently in Nashville on a packed out writing trip of sessions and industry networking. Her debut EP "Married in Vegas" will be released in 2025, funded by Help Musicians Next Level Fund. Her new single ‘99’ is out now.   ZACH JOHN KING Zach John King is from Fayetteville, GA, a small town south of Atlanta. His grandfather worked on the line at General Motors and his grandmother introduced him to country music on Saturday mornings at a very young age. The Georgia native writes heartfelt lyrics inspired by multiple events from his own life intermixed with a genre-bending sound of country, americana and indie rock. King's songs carry twist-heavy lyrics, memorable melodies, and heartache coming from an artist who considers himself "kinda country" pointing back to small town life and love lost. King's personal story and songs have connected with fans, quietly amassing over 3M views on demos and worktapes on Tik Tok before his first official release. He’s now reached over 5M global streams across 5 singles since Oct ‘23 and is slated to release his first EP, Wannabe Cowboy, on 5/24 featuring new song, “The Way I See You”.   BAYKER BLANKENSHIP Striking a poignant note with his viral single ‘Maxed Out’, Livingston, Tennessee singer and songwriter Bayker Blankenship uses his heartfelt vocals to deliver rootsy country ballads. Uploading covers of artists like Zach Bryan and Tyler Childers online throughout his late teens, Blankenship found global success with just his second single, 2024’s ‘Maxed Out’. A down-on-your-luck balled delivered with earnest, soulful vocals, the song hit a chord with country listeners worldwide, racking up over ten million streams within months of release. A series of strong acoustic performances online and across radio placements ensured the track’s continued success, consolidating Blankenship’s audience further.
