The Road, the Rhythm, and the New Faces of The Nashville Nights Band

Touring is a wild ride.

It’s long nights, fast food, endless highways, missed exits, soundchecks in unfamiliar rooms, and hotel beds that never quite feel like home. But it’s also the thing we live for — the shows, the people, the moments on stage when everything clicks, and we remember exactly why we signed up for this in the first place.

And like any great journey, sometimes the road brings new faces into the fold.

We’re excited to officially welcome three incredible musicians into The Nashville Nights Band family: Mike Regan on drums, Aaron Chavers on bass, and Christian McGinty on piano and organ.

Bringing new players into a band that's been rolling hard isn't always easy. There's chemistry to build, songs to rehearse, personalities to mesh, and about a hundred tiny things that only come with time on the road. But these three guys? They stepped into the chaos like they were born for it.

🎸 Aaron Chavers – Bass

Aaron brings deep groove, big smiles, and a whole lot of soul. He's the kind of bassist that makes the songs breathe — locking in tight with Mikey, lifting the melodies, and driving the rhythm section like a freight train.

🎹 Christian McGinty – Piano / Organ

Christian is our secret weapon.

With a deep command of the Hammond and a natural flair for the kind of soulful, gospel-tinged licks that define '90s country, he’s brought a rich new layer to our sound. Whether it’s soaring organ swells or delicate piano runs, Christian knows how to play exactly what a moment needs — and nothing more.

More than that, he brings a calm, confident presence to the stage. He's a pro, plain and simple, and fans are already picking up on how much he elevates the show.

🥁 Mike Regan – Drums

Mike holds down the beat with heart and precision. He’s the kind of drummer who not only hits hard but listens hard — to the band, to the crowd, to the flow of the night. His energy behind the kit is the engine that powers the entire set.

Transitioning mid-tour isn’t easy. But we’ve been incredibly fortunate to find players who not only get the music — they get the mission. They’ve jumped in headfirst, learned the setlist, hit the road, and made this band better with every mile.

We’re proud to have these three guys on board and can’t wait for y’all to see what they bring to the stage. The road rolls on, and with Mike, Aaron, and Christian riding with us, it’s sounding better than ever.

See you at the next stop.
