Make Music Liberty - 2026

Third Wheel

Third Wheel is a genre-bending cover band from Liberty, Missouri, with a knack for taking familiar songs and giving them a fresh twist. Blending virtuosic guitar, soaring cello, and dynamic vocals, the trio puts their own spin on everything from classic favorites to modern hits. Guitarist Ryan Richardson and cellist Luke Adams, both Liberty natives, share a passion for keeping live music thriving in their hometown. Vocalist Hillary Holt, an actress, singer, and 2015 graduate of William Jewell College, works for the City of Liberty and believes in the power of music to bring people together. Together, Third Wheel creates performances that are energetic, unexpected, and rooted in a love for community.
