Lonnie Rott-

Darrien Rutherford -
Darrien Rutherford, a singer-songwriter born and raised in Michigan, began playing guitar at age seven. After moving to North Carolina, he felt a strong pull to pursue music, embracing the journey despite the ups and downs along the way. A father of four, Darrien writes personal songs about love, loss, and the challenges of embracing life’s changes. For him, music is a way to connect honestly and deeply with himself and others, sharing pieces of his story through every chord and lyric.
Better Days is a quarterly live music series that features musicians (local and beyond) who are dedicated to writing and performing original music. Better Days is hosted and sponsored in partnership with J Candeed Music and Hartwell Raleigh.
