On opening night at the Lyric, Downtown Prattville will be full of food trucks and pumpkins for the kickoff of Parade of Pumpkins, and The Lyric will have games, live music and fun for the whole family ready to go!

Joining us on opening night will be the band called Fents who is one of the hottest college bands touring campuses across the Southeast today. Fents is an alternative rock band whose sound is defined by a raw, unfiltered blend of gritty guitars, atmospheric synths, and emotive vocals. Hailing from Birmingham, AL, the band channels a mix of influences into their uniquely introspective sound. Since forming in 2020, Fents has been crafting songs that resonate with listeners on both a personal and emotional level.

Their debut album, Astrophysiology, released in 2021, quickly gained attention for its standout tracks like "Love Games" and "In My Head," earning them a growing fanbase and critical acclaim for their ability to merge catchy hooks with complex arrangements. In November 2024, Fents dropped their highly anticipated sophomore album, and the record is a bold step forward, blending their signature style with fresh sonic exploration. With tracks like "Grey" and "Stranger," the album delves deeper into the complexities of human connection. All in attendance are in for a very special opening night at The Lyric.

Grand Opening: Join us for two weeks straight of nightly music starting October 17, 2025 (in conjunction with downtown Prattville’s Parade of Pumpkins), to experience the energy and excitement of The Lyric at Esther’s Grand Opening!
