challenging year when musicians and
bands couldn’t tour, they are now
traveling here from across the country,
eager to play in this new state-ofthe
art venue. Perfectly placed along
the Toccoa River in the stateline city
of McCaysville, Ga., TOONEYS is situated
inside the Riverwalk Shops.
Guests can shop, dine and unwind
to the sounds of the area’s hottest
up-and-coming artists.
Venue manager Emily Hawkins
has quickly established TOONEYS as
“the place” to be for live music in the
area with Open Mic Nights every
Thursday, and free concerts every
Saturday & Sunday. The doors open
at 5:00 PM for all events.
Good Vibes
It’s not often a town can cling to
history while also reshaping the
future. But that’s exactly what the
mountain town of McCaysville is
doing by embracing the strong tradition
of live music in the heart of the
beautiful Copper Basin. Come out
and enjoy a night of fun, and welcome
music back to the mountains!
Jess Goggans is known for her sultry
“Southern grit” style of singing.
