Kristian Bush, half of country music duo Sugarland, is adding an encore performance after selling out two solo Thanksgiving weekend shows at Eddie’s Attic in Decatur, GA.

“Kristian Bush and Friends” will be two shows (6:30 and 9:30 pm) on Sunday, Nov. 25, with special guests Ellis Paul and Canaan Smith. The newly added show is set for Monday, Nov. 26 with guest singer-songwriter Patrick Davis.

“I’ve been a songwriter my entire life, and Eddie’s is the club where I got my start, so I’m happy to keep on playing for as long as people want to listen,” Bush says.

Bush will make his third appearance on the CMA Songwriter Series when it returns to Nashville Oct. 31 at Marathon Music Works as part of Country Music Month, leading up the annual CMA Awards on Nov. 1. Along with his Sugarland partner Jennifer Nettles, Bush is nominated for CMA Vocal Duo of the Year.

Bush started his career with folk rock duo Billy Pilgrim in the early ’90s. He has garnered five CMA Vocal Duo awards as part of Sugarland, exceeding sales of more than 22 million units with eight No. 1 singles. In 2011, Bush founded the music publishing company Songs of the Architect, recently working with Boys Like Girls frontman Martin Johnson and Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale, as well as Canaan Smith, Lauren Alaina, Jaida Dreyer and Alana Springsteen.
