Festival 56 in Princeton introduces Sound Stage, a new music series bridging the gap between main seasons. The series debuts October 11th at 7 PM at The Grace Theater with 19-year-old country singer Jaden Decker, whose gritty “Rocky Mountain Country” sound has drawn national acclaim. Decker, a Montana native now living in Nashville, gained attention with his anthemic single “Thrown to the Wolves,” inspired by a personal ordeal. The lineup also spotlights pop-punk act UpByN00n on November 8th and singer-songwriter Ava Easter on January 24, 2026. Tickets for each show are $15 and available at festival56.com or by calling 815-879-5656, with savings offered for multi-show passes.
Jaden, a prodigious talent who began playing guitar at just six, is bringing his signature “Rocky Mountain Country” sound to the Festival 56 Sound Stage. Known for blending grit, soul, and lyrical depth, Jaden has garnered a devoted national fan base through energetic touring and emotive performances. Audiences can experience his standout songwriting at The Grace Theater, 316 South Main Street in Princeton.
