Campfire Concert Series
Presented by Black Creek Chattanooga
Fall 2025 Lineup
The Campfire Concert Series has become a cherished tradition at Reflection Riding, bringing people together every fall and spring for evenings of live music, community, and connection to nature. Set against the stunning backdrop of Lookout Mountain, these concerts create a warm and welcoming atmosphere around the fire. More than just music, the series supports Reflection Riding’s mission as ticket sales directly fund our work in conservation, education, and community engagement. When you join us for the Campfire Concert Series, you’re not only enjoying a night under the stars but also helping sustain the future of Reflection Riding.
Milele Roots | September 12
Meaning "Eternal", Milele Roots, has a unique style with Reggae as the foundation. The core band consists of: Yattie Westfield (drums and vocals), Christian Craan (bass), Jesse Jungkurth (guitar, harmonica, and vocals), Jonathan Wimpee (guitar, keys, and vocals), and Becky Ribiero (trumpet, percussion, and vocals). This 5 piece band from Chattanooga will bring a reggae experience splashed with ska, funk, and much more.
C.O.T. Band | September 26
The C.O.T. Band is a latin band based in the Atlanta area. We play a mix of salsa, merengue, funk, bachata, caribbean rhythms, jazz, rumba, trova cubana and brazilian beats with our own twist. In 2010 Willie Ziavino formed the C.O.T. Band along with Juan Bonini (Panamá) resulting in the fusion of trova, jazz, caribbean / brazilian rhythms and musical influences from each band member. This world music style blends perfectly with the melting pot that is Atlanta.
Gabriel Broussard Thomas | October 10
Gabriel Broussard Thomas is a Louisiana-born artist living in Nashville. He grew up singing classic rock, blues, and soul music and has been performing live for over 10 years since the age of 12.
Songs from the Road Band | October 24
Songs From The Road Band is a dynamic bluegrass ensemble known for their compelling blend of Americana, roots, and folk music. Comprised of talented musicians who have individually made their mark in the acoustic music scene, the band came together to create a powerful collective sound. They are celebrated for their intricate harmonies, masterful instrumentation, and engaging live performances.
Kasvot Chätt | November 7
Kasvot Chätt is Chattanooga’s first‑and‑only Phish tribute, but they’re not chasing note‑for‑note perfection. Every song is a springboard for long grooves and left‑turn improvisation that keep dancers guessing. Die‑hard phans and curious newcomers alike end up in the same place: moving to the music. After a run of Southeast gigs, the band is just getting warmed up!
