What Our Clients Are Saying
Silver Bullets Design is a top notch team of seasoned and creative professionals that took the look of the Luke Combs 360 arena tour to a completely new design level. The visuals were on such a grand scale, yet kept the show clean for the fans. We had more compliments on our design and lighting than we ever have had before. I highly recommend this team!
— Chris Kappy, Artist Manager, Luke Combs
"If you're looking for a design partner that's smart, flexible, pays attention to detail (including budgets) and goes the extra mile then you've found it with Silver Bullets Design. True professionals!"
— Jerry Slone, Production Manager, Luke Combs
It has been great getting to work with Silver Bullets on multiple projects of theirs with Luke Combs, Hootie and the Blowfish as well as Darius Rucker. Kevin and Will are very professional in their communication as well as making sure we as the vendor have all of the accurate information we need to execute their vision properly. They have also been more than accommodating to work within our inventory constraints at any given time which is not something that is common amongst design firms!

Our Designers
Will Lowdermilk
Darius Rucker’s go-to designer began his career in the industry loading trucks in his hometown of Winston-Salem, NC for Special Event Services. He has experience in audio, video, and lighting, but found his true calling as a lighting designer.
Will has worked as a lighting technician with Hootie and the Blowfish and Lynyrd Skynyrd and as an audio tech for Coldplay before finding his niche designing and directing lights for both Hootie and the Blowfish and Darius Rucker’s worldwide shows.
Every aspect of the lighting show is designed, built, programmed, and run under Will’s musically intuitive care. His musicality makes an instrument of his artfully crafted lighting rigs and adds and undeniable dimension and experience to his shows.
Will’s talent, enthusiastic spirit, and personable nature make him a favorite among artists, promoters, stagehands, and fans.
