Justin Moore is not the only musical act to perform during Friday’s Bulldog Bash. The Cigar Lounge of Starkville, a local cigar shop in the Cotton District, will also host two musical guests over the weekend.

On Friday, DJ Glotron will play during Bulldog Bash. Auston Noland, owner of the shop, said this is the second year the Cigar Lounge will have a musical performance during Bulldog Bash.

“DJ Glotron will be playing in between sets and acts. We will not interfere with the main stage performances,” Noland said.

DJ Glotron’s performance will continue after the headliner has finished.

The Cigar Lounge of Starkville will host Tesheva Saturday. The performance will last from 10 p.m. until 1 a.m.  The shop will offer a multitude of specials that patrons can take advantage of during Bulldog Bash.

Caleb Hutson, vocalist and guitarist of Teshava, said  anyone ready to dance should join the band Saturday night for its performance.

“Since the inception of Tesheva last fall, we have been privileged to share our music with the wonderful people of Starkville. We couldn’t be more excited about performing at the Cigar Lounge during one of the biggest weekends of the year,” he said.

Hutson said Teshava’s sound reflects the bandmates mutual interests in blues, rock, psychedelic and jam music.

Noland said it has always been a goal of the Cigar Lounge to incorporate live musical acts into the business.

“We are a little cigar shop surrounded by five or six bars, and we wanted to support the local music scene,” he said. “We are fans of anything music.”

The cigar lounge started by setting up small acoustic acts on its outdoor patio area. The need for more space led to the construction of a stage during spring break of last year. The stage is built to accommodate larger musical acts and equipment.
