Statesville, NC
A city of roughly 30,000 residents, Statesville has long been recognized as a destination for live music, earning regional acclaim as one of the Southeast’s “Hidden Tracks of the Southern Music Scene.” The Levitt AMP Statesville Music Series carries that energy outdoors to the Cultural, Arts, Sports & Technology (CAST) campus, a former industrial site reimagined as a growing hub for creativity, gathering, and community life. Located between the city’s evolving downtown district and often-overlooked surrounding neighborhoods, the series reflects CAST’s vision to bring people and cultures together through shared arts and cultural experiences.
Featuring free concerts by local, regional, and national artists across genres ranging from rock and R&B to country, hip hop, bluegrass, and Latin-influenced sounds, the series introduces audiences to a wide range of musical styles. Thoughtfully timed to take place between two of Statesville’s signature events—the internationally recognized Full Bloom Film Festival and the Carolina Balloon Fest—the series is extending Statesville’s cultural momentum and inviting a broader cross-section of the community to take part, creating moments of joy and connection while spotlighting a place that reflects the city’s ongoing transformation.
