Set your soul on fire under the neon glow of the Sunset Strip—August 31 is not just a concert, it’s a cultural collision at the legendary Whisky A Go Go. This iconic venue becomes ground zero for a night where California country-pop energy meets hard-hitting blues-rock tradition.

At the heart of it all? Two powerhouse names:
Eileen Carey — a West Coast pop-country trailblazer who turns empowerment into anthems.
Foghat — celebrating 50 years of “Slow Ride” with a performance that proves classic rock never dies.

Eileen Carey: West Coast Pop-Country at Its Finest

Eileen Carey doesn’t just open the show—she sets the tone for the night. Her latest single, “Carry Me Away,” is a soul-stirring invitation to slow down, embrace change, and live with intention. American Pride Magazine calls her “a sheer force for positivity, truth, and empowerment,” and fans couldn’t agree more.

Her sound—dubbed West Coast Pop-Country—blends melodic storytelling with undeniable energy. Having racked up over 25 music awards, Carey is no stranger to owning the stage. Expect fan favorites like “Good Bad Girl” and “Land With You” delivered with the confidence and heart that have made her a staple in modern country music.

This is a performance that bridges worlds—the California cool of Carey meets the gritty groove of Foghat—all in one unforgettable night.

Then Comes the Boogie: Foghat Still Ridin’ Strong

When Carey closes her set, the blues-infused juggernaut known as Foghat takes over, turning Whisky into a time machine fueled by roaring riffs and unstoppable rhythm. With founding drummer Roger Earl, slide-guitar ace Bryan Bassett, bassist Rodney O’Quinn, and frontman Scott Holt, the band is delivering its fiercest shows in years.
