It’s not too late to get tickets for this year’s annual Harmonies for Homes concert on June 27 at Atlanta Country Club! This concert under the stars raises funds to build one home for a future Habitat homeowner, and you can make that possible. Meet the artists for our 2022 entertainment line-up: Edwin McCain has been called the “great American romantic” by the New York Times. He has built an enviable career over the past 20 years by balancing his massive pop success with the year-round touring schedule of a tireless troubadour. His hit songs, authentic spirit, and surprisingly affable sense of humor keep fans coming back time and time again for nights that feel more like parties with old friends than rock concerts. After recording two of the biggest love songs in the history of pop music, “I’ll Be” and “I Could Not Ask for More”, McCain now performs upwards of 100 shows annually throughout the US as a solo artist, with his full band or his acoustic trio. Edwin also makes his debut performance at the Grand Ole Opry this July! Mark Broussard is a singer-songwriter whose style is best described as Bayou Soul, a mix of funk, blues, R&B, rock and pop, matched with distinctive southern roots. He has released eight studio albums, one live album, three EPs and has charted twice. Broussard has been a featured performer on many TV programs including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, A&E Breakfast with the Arts, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, CBS Saturday Early Show, Larry King Live, Lopez Tonight, and CBS's Saturday Morning's Second Cup Cafe. His music has been featured on shows in which "Home" was performed by a Blake Shelton-led choir. Singer Kelly Clarkson performed "Home" as part of her live setlist in 2006 and 2007 and his song, “Must Be the Water" was the theme song for the 2008 NBA All-Star Game. Emerson Hart is no stranger to penning hits over his 25-year career creating works of art that resonate with fans and quickly become classics. He fronts the multi-platinum GRAMMY® Award-nominated alternative rock institution, Tonic, that has racked up six Top 10 singles including “If You Could Only See,” which was the number one most-played rock song of 1998. Tonic has sold more than 4 million records, received multiple Grammy nominations, and toured the world. In addition to Tonic, Emerson built a growing solo discography. 2007’s Cigarettes & Gasoline garnered tastemaker praise and yielded two Top 20 singles. In 2014, Beauty in Disrepair arrived as a fan and critical favorite lauded by USA Today, Huffington Post, Guitar World, and many more. Emerson is a native of Washington, Pennsylvania and grew up in New Jersey. He now lives in Nashville. This year’s concert is presented by Bercher Homes , and produced by Mooncrush .
