Welcome back to Southern Hang, the Self-Proclaimed Unofficial Official Podcast of Railbird '26. In this episode we’re breaking down the heavy hitters (Tyler!) and hidden gems of the Sunday lineup at Railbird Festival 2026. Sunday we're expecting a bigger crowd from the Ella factor. And how many artists will play their version of Jersey Giant? Sam Barber Saturday? Evan Honer Sunday? Tyler himself?
🎙️ In This Episode:
- Tyler Childers: Nuff said.
- Ella Langley: Analyzing the crazy popularity of Alabama’s newest country music powerhouse. Hit songs, commercials, sold out shows...Railbird benefiting from those early contracts.
- Houndmouth: Better yet, forgo the choas of Ella and head to the Burl stage for the pride of New Albany and their indie-folk vibes. Neil talks about their evolution and why they remain one of the best live acts in the region.
- Zach Top: Bringing "90s country" back to the future. Cotton dives into his traditionalist sound and why he’s the artist he can't wait to see.
- Nicholas Jamerson: The heart of the Kentucky local music scene and one of Neil's favorites. And it doesn't get more baller than writing a kick ass love story about your Grandparents!!
Other artists discussed are Muscadine Bloodline, Shane Smith & the Saints, Shakey Graves, Margo Price, Evan Honer, Braxton Keith, The Creekers, Tyce Delk and Kashus Culpepper. And then Sherm does an unexpected breakdown of up and comer Willow Avalon.
