Suwanee Summer Porch Jam Brings the Heat and the Beats  

Live Music, Local Talent, and Food Trucks Take Over Old Town This June

Community gathering with people enjoying a live band performance on a house porch, surrounded by a lively crowd and a scenic neighborhood setting.Bring a chair and take a musical stroll at City of Suwanee’s signature Summer Porch Jam, taking place June 13th, starting at 6:00 p.m. This free, highly anticipated event turns Old Town Suwanee into an open-air stage for some seriously talented artists. With 14 venues, including the mayor’s own front porch, discover new artists and genres at every turn. Artists-like Anu & Ash, Rachael Mann, Paige Nelson, BCKS BAND, and Little Gracie are the kind of rising stars you’ll want to say you saw before they blew up.   

Mann said, “Music has always been a part of me. Through every song I sing, I always want to speak life, hope, and encouragement into the hearts of others. I love to inspire people, and I’m just getting started—new songs, new seasons, same purpose”. Catch her live at 6:45 p.m. at Suwanee Circle.  

Like Mann, each artist brings a personal story and passion to the stage, none more so than Anu & Ash. The duo fell in love through their shared passion for music and are working on studio versions of their own originals. They are celebrating a full-circle moment at Summer Porch Jam this year and could not be more thrilled.  

“This is our first official music festival, and we couldn’t be more excited and honored to be part of it,” they shared. Listen to Anu & Ash at 6:15 p.m. on Gramigna Porch. 

Other artists joining the lineup promise a playlist of good vibes and crowd favorites ranging from acoustic rock to soulful jazz and everything in between.  

Little Gracie said, “We’re excited to make the trip up and rock a porch. We have a great set planned and are excited to showcase some new songs”. Sing along with them at 9 p.m. at the Burnette Rogers Pavilion.  

One of the most special stops at this year’s Suwanee Summer Porch Jam is Everett’s Music Barn, a true gem in the heart of Suwanee and a staple of the bluegrass community for over 50 years. It’s a family-friendly space where music is passed down, picked up, and played from the soul of national bluegrass legends to talented locals. During Porch Jam, experience a piece of living music history at Everett’s where you’ll see why so many call it the heartbeat of Suwanee.
