Born and raised in Savannah, GA, Kingston broadened her musical tastes in Colorado and Washington DC, where she lived, wrote and sang. A native of Athens, GA, Dinnan has called California home for the last 12 years, but splits time between Nashville, Athens and Sacramento, where he tours, records and produces. Betsy Kingston & the Crowns currently call Athens, GA home and have been having a blast kicking off their tour throughout the Southeast this fall. The band looks forward to taking their perfect balance of heavy hitting Blues-Rock and soulful Country-Folk on the road in support of their debut album see them LIVE December 1st!

Opening the show for Betsy & the Crowns will be Thayer Sarrano…..”Thayer Sarrano is a beguiling Athens-based singer who casts an exquisite spell with her spare, ghostly songs that haunt the ears from a distance. Subtle, southern, lonesome and eerie, she clearly knows her way around heavy, drowsy reverb, bringing forth obvious comparisons to Mazzy Star and Chan Marshall. After spending most of her time as a supporting player with numerous Athens outfits, she’s definitely gotten my attention with her debut CD, King, out now.” –(Stomp and Stammer, 2009)
