This band is mature and experienced on one hand but still young, fresh and curious on the other.

THE CONSTELLATIONS (Nashville Indie Rock)
with support from Asheville locals:
EAST RITUAL (glam/rock & roll)

STARSEER (art rock/pysch)

The Constellations is a Nashville-based rock band which was originally formed in Atlanta in 2008. The band quickly experienced wide critical acclaim including film and television placements in Chuck, Royal Pains, Suits, Vampire Diaries, Horrible Bosses, and more. The Constellations’ unique blending of styles and influences creates music that appeals to all different walks of life.
After a years-long hiatus and various different iterations and side projects, front man Elijah Jones found himself revisiting some of the original material in mid-2023. While in the studio working on the latest album under the project Elijah Jones & the CCs, Elijah found that his writing style was gravitating increasingly back to the sound of The Constellations. This Atlanta sound, filtered through the influence of several years spent in Nashville, came out as a sort of Tom Petty meets The Strokes meets Elvis Costello melting pot.
Elijah’s lyrics tell the story of loss, heartbreak, recovery, and the resilience of the human spirit. With this new direction, The Constellations’ sound has matured into something truly special that is both unique and familiar
