In 2019, Shain won first place in the Solo/Duo category of the International Blues Challenge, a prestigious competition that will undoubtedly bring him international fame!

Too Much Fun – CANCELLED

6:00 pm – Sunset
Meadowmont Village
300 Meadowmont Village Circle, Chapel Hill, NC 27517

Hailing from Chapel Hill, Too Much Fun has entertained audiences across North Carolina for over a quarter century. They can jump, they can swing, they can flat out rock. Their four-part harmonies light up their own originals alongside choice covers. Featuring rootsy blues, barrelhouse rockers and everything in between, their onstage fun is instantly contagious! They have been called a mix between Southern Culture on the Skids and the Squirrel Nut Zippers.

This event is free and open to the community, so please bring your family and friends, a chair and a blanket, and a picnic — or enjoy dinner from one of the many fine restaurants in Meadowmont Village before the show. FREE parking on site!
