From Bragg Jam: The Bragg Jam Concert Crawl, Macon’s signature live music experience, returns in 2026 with a dynamic, genre-spanning lineup led by headliners Kashus Culpepper and Langhorne Slim, alongside a diverse roster of emerging and established artists from across the country and beyond.

The Bragg Jam Concert Crawl will take place on July 25, 2026, in downtown Macon, Georgia, transforming the city’s historic venues into a multi-stage live music experience. Tickets are on sale now at www.braggjam.org.

“Bragg Jam isn’t a one-day, single-stage festival, it’s a citywide experience where you move through downtown and into historic venues,” said Olivia Walter, Bragg Jam Board President. “At its core it’s all about connection, between artists and audiences, neighbors, and Macon’s musical legacy and its future.”

This year’s headliners embody that spirit.

“Kashus Culpepper and Langhorne Slim are artists who have built their reputations on authenticity and connection. Kashus is emerging as a powerful new voice with a sound rooted in soul and storytelling, while Langhorne Slim has spent years earning a devoted following through raw, high-energy performances that feel deeply personal. Together, they represent both where music is going and the kind of enduring artistry that defines it. Our headliners reflect the heart of this festival, real music, real stories, and performances that stay with you long after the last song.”

The 2026 lineup showcases Bragg Jam’s commitment to discovery and depth, blending global sounds, indie favorites, and rising talent poised for breakout moments.

“Bragg Jam has always been about discovery, and what makes this lineup special is its depth. From global energy like Kaleta & Super Yamba Band to indie standouts like Easy Honey and Girl Tones, alongside rising acts like Supertaste, Arkose, Scattrbrain, and Sons of Midnite, you see them here first, in an intimate setting, before they break wider,” Walter shared.

Additional artists performing this year include Happy Landing, Improvement Movement, Thomas Dollbaum, The Animeros, Low Gap, Joelton Mayfield, African Americana, Cody Matlock, Terror Pigeon, Chris Casey, Sweet Diesel, Bocafloja, Jaguar Glass, Jalen Reyes, Boom! Trio, Harold E. Thomas & Danger Zone and more, along with the return of The Bragg Jam Guitar Pull featuring Ash Tuesday, CC Witt, Julia Barfield, and Sam Stephens.

Bragg Jam will also celebrate 50 years of The Rookery, where Bragg Jam first began, with a special performance by The Buckleys.

At the heart of the festival is a commitment to showcasing a wide range of voices, sounds, and perspectives.

“This lineup is as diverse as the city that hosts it,” Walter said. “It reflects the full spectrum of what music looks and feels like right now. It’s not confined to one genre or one lane, and that’s exactly the point. Bragg Jam has always been about discovery, and diversity is what fuels that; different sounds, different backgrounds, different perspectives all coming together in one city. It’s important to us that this festival reflects the world of music as it actually exists; layered, evolving, and full of voices that deserve to be heard. Different sounds, shared experience, that’s Bragg Jam.”

More than a festival, Bragg Jam is an immersive experience that invites attendees to explore the city through music.

“You don’t just attend Bragg Jam, you experience Macon through music,” exclaimed Walter. “This is a lineup designed to be explored. You don’t just come for one artist, you come to wander, to discover, and to experience something unexpected around every corner.”
