SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 5/14 — Rigby Summer
DESCRIPTION:Rigby Summer weaves an Americana soundscape that reflects the road she’s traveled from her Kansas City jazz upbringing to the beach pop of her former home in southern California to the Red Dirt roots of her longtime home in Stillwater\, Oklahoma and the winds of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains\, where she’s toured extensively and is now making her second home. \nThe result is an eclectic cosmic Americana sound that often draws comparisons to Brandi Carlile and Lucinda Williams—a little modern\, a little old-fashioned\, always earnest. \nIn 2017\, after a five-year hiatus from performing music\, she founded the Monday @ Modella songwriter pop-up in Stillwater\, Oklahoma\, and the ALL MUSIC STARTS LOCAL initiative\, both of which have helped her carve a niche for herself in the Oklahoma scene and beyond. The result is a career built on collaboration and community\, learning from and edifying her fellow artists along the way. \nRigby Summer and the One Night Band marks a new chapter in the creative evolution of Americana artist Rigby Summer—a shift from her solo roots to a full-band sound that fuses modern folk-rock energy with the heart of her songwriting.  With guitarist\, producer\, and music director Eric Tate at the helm\, The One Night Band brings a new dynamic to her songs\, transforming them into something both intimate and electrifying. The result is a sound that’s modern yet timeless—a reflection of community\, collaboration\, and the courage to evolve.

SUMMARY:Big Bad Voodoo Daddy — Live at the Bijou — 5/11
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nApril\, 2026\, marks the 33 year anniversary of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s remarkable arrival onto the music scene. Since its formation in the early nineties in Ventura\, California\, the band has toured virtually nonstop\, performing on average over 150 shows a year\, and has produced a sizable catalog of recorded music\, with sales of over 2 million albums to date. Early on\, during their legendary residency at the Derby nightclub in Los Angeles\, they reminded the world\, in the midst of the grunge era no less\, that it was still cool to swing. The band\, co-founded by singer Scotty Morris and drummer Kurt Sodergren\, was at the forefront of the swing revival of that time\, blending a vibrant fusion of the classic American sounds of jazz\, swing\, and dixieland\, with the energy and spirit of contemporary culture. \nBig Bad Voodoo Daddy’s all original core line-up includes Scotty Morris (lead vocals and guitar)\, Kurt Sodergren (drums)\, Dirk Shumaker (double bass and vocals)\, Andy Rowley (baritone saxophone and vocals)\, Glen “The Kid” Marhevka (trumpet)\, Karl Hunter (saxophones and clarinet) and Joshua Levy (piano and arranger). Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s efforts to promote and revitalize swing music have taken shape as much more than a simple tribute. Taking inspiration from the creators of this uniquely American art form\, the band’s original horn-infused music and legendary high energy show introduces the genre to a new and younger generation while remaining cognizant and respectful of the music’s rich legacy. \nBig Bad Voodoo Daddy’s first phase of stardom featured an appearance in the 1996 indie film Swingers\, a movie that not only launched the careers of Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau\, but introduced Big Bad Voodoo Daddy to an audience beyond their Los Angeles base. The band’s music has appeared in countless films and television shows\, including The Wild\, Despicable Me\, Phineas & Ferb\, Friends\, Third Rock From The Sun\, Ally McBeal\, and So You Think You Can Dance. They have appeared live on Dancing With The Stars\, Late Night With Conan O’Brien\, NBC’s Christmas in Rockefeller Center\, The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade\, a remarkable seven appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno\, and the Super Bowl XXXIII Halftime Show. The band has also appeared as special guests with many of the country’s most distinguished symphony orchestras\, and has performed for three U.S. Presidents. \nAfter 33 years\, 11 records\, over 3000 live shows\, and countless appearances in film and television\, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy is showing no signs of slowing down\, and is looking forward to sharing its music with new and old fans alike\, in 2026

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 5/7 — Kara Grainger / The Prickly Pair
DESCRIPTION:Kara Grainger is an Australian born Guitarist and singer/songwriter! \n \nThe Prickly Pair is an angsty Americana duo based in Nashville\, TN. It all began when Pennsylvania native\, Irene Greene\, reached out to Mason Summit to team up for a class assignment when they both were students at USC/Thornton School of Music—they were in the same class\, but had never met. Then came a bit later a romance when they became a couple. And then\, after pursuing separate musical paths\, deciding during the pandemic to see what they could do as a duo. After that it was a big jump\, moving from L.A. to Nashville. What started as a songwriting class exercise will soon become a marriage and a debut showcasing their “angsty Americana” approach\, The Prickly Pair EP.

SUMMARY:Rebuild Hot Springs presents The 2026 Town & Trail Festival
DESCRIPTION:A free\, two-day celebration of the Appalachian Trail\, the mountains\, and the remarkable community of Hot Springs\, North Carolina. Everyone is welcome.\n\n\nSince 1998\, Trailfest has been a cherished tradition in Hot Springs\, NC. As the first town Appalachian Trail thru-hikers reach on their northbound journey\, Hot Springs has always had a special relationship with the trail — and this festival has been its annual celebration. For nearly three decades\, we’ve welcomed hikers\, locals\, and visitors alike with live music\, delicious food\, and the kind of warm mountain hospitality you can only find here. \n\n\nLast year\, we added something new to the name. “Town & Trail Fest” reflects what this event has always been at its heart — not just a celebration of the trail\, but of the remarkable community that lives alongside it. Hot Springs is a town with a story worth telling\, and we couldn’t think of a better way to tell it than by bringing everyone together for a weekend of music\, laughter\, and good company. \n\n\n\n\nHot Springs sits at mile 273 of the Appalachian Trail — and for hikers who’ve been on the trail for weeks\, rolling into this little mountain town feels like coming home. The festival has always been a love letter to that experience: the trail\, the town\, and the deep connection between them. \n\n\nFor a second year\, Town & Trail Fest is presented by Rebuild Hot Springs Area (RHSA)\, a local nonprofit born out of this community’s response to Hurricane Helene. What this town has accomplished in the face of that challenge is a testament to the spirit of the Appalachian community — and this festival is a celebration of exactly that. All proceeds go directly toward RHSA’s mission of building a stronger\, more resilient Hot Springs. \nTown & Trail Fest is more than a great weekend — it’s a fundraiser for the people and services that make Hot Springs what it is. Last year’s festival raised over $11\,000 for RHSA’s Residential Fund\, helping put families back in their homes and giving this community a foundation to rebuild on. This year\, we’re turning our focus to the men and women who show up no matter what. All proceeds will support RHSA’s Emergency Services Fund\, dedicated to the three volunteer fire departments — Hot Springs\, Spring Creek\, and Country VFD — whose sacrifice and service keep our mountain community safe every single day.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 4/30 — Justin Kaleb/Russell Walker
DESCRIPTION:Justin Kaleb grew up in the foothills of the Arkansas Ozarks and moved to Nashville\, Tennessee at the ripe age of 22. He cut his first record “Homesick Blues” down in the infamous Muscle Shoals\, Alabama with the great Jimmy Nutt (Jimmy Buffett\, Jason Isbell\, American Aquarium) and Gary Nichols (The Steeldrivers)\, and signed his first publishing deal shortly after. What seemed to be a bright immediate future in Nashville soon became a monotonous grind clouded by homesickness and depression. He packed his bags and headed back home to catch his breath. \nAfter a year of being back home in Arkansas and working the Texas and Oklahoma markets\, Nashville came calling again. He found himself back in his old stomping grounds regularly playing shows\, writing music\, and having more fun than he’d ever had before. He partnered up with his old pal Darren King (Project 86/The Overseer) and the songs they were working on quickly became a record. \nJustin Kaleb has seen his fair share of ups and downs. He’s played sold out venues with bands like The Steeldrivers\, and felt the rush of cramming into a 15-passenger van with his best friends to share the stage with bands like Drowning Pool in his early years of fronting a metal band. At the same time\, he’s felt the calmness and serenity of driving through an Alabama cotton field by himself to play for nobody but the bartender. While this ebb and flow way of life might deter most\, he’s learned to find comfort in it. \nDon’t be fooled by his laid-back demeanor. Justin knows that talent is worthless without work-ethic\, and work-ethic can even overcome a lack of talent if you work hard enough. He sees it every day while working with his hands when he’s not on the road or in the studio\, and has experienced first-hand how sometimes just showing up can be the first step toward something great. \nIn the same vein as artists like the Turnpike Troubadours\, Tyler Childers\, and Jason Isbell\, Justin Kaleb brings an element of truth-telling\, blue-collar music that Americana music fans can surely get behind. Jump on board while you can\, because the train’s leaving the station. \n  \nSinger/Songwriter Russell Walker of Honky Tonk Thursday is playing as well!

SUMMARY:Marc Broussard — Live at the Bijou — 4/29
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nAcclaimed singer\, songwriter\, and musician Marc Broussard is a unique performer who embodies the essence of American soul and has forged his own distinct musical style. The son of Louisiana Hall of Fame guitarist Ted Broussard of “The Boogie Kings\,” he nurtured his musical gifts at an early age in the vibrant Lafayette\, Louisiana\, music scene. After releasing a highly successful independent EP at age 20\, Broussard made his major-label debut with Carencro. The album featured the breakout hit “Home” and propelled him into the international spotlight. That album and the others that followed revealed Broussard as a Southern soul singer with a rarefied talent and an innate stylistic and emotional authenticity that has made him one of the most indelible artists of his generation. The Louisiana-born and raised artist has created a wide range of music in his career. Carencro laid the groundwork with unequaled style\, illustrating his knack for modern soul music and setting the stage for his long and distinguished career. NPR cited\, “His music radiates soulful Louisiana blues\, but his songs blend those influences with raucous rock ‘n’ roll to create unique and infectious music.” Washington Times noted\, “Few modern voices are as powerful as Marc Broussard’s soulful\, Bayou-bred baritone.” \nBroussard released multiple albums with major labels over the last ten years before returning to his independent roots with several acclaimed original recordings and charitable cover albums via his S.O.S. Foundation (Save our Soul).  His philanthropic releases include Save our Soul\, Save our Soul 11: Soul on a Mission\, A Lullaby Collection\, SOS 111 with accompanying children’s book\, I Love You for You and S.O.S.4: Blues for Your Soul\, his collaboration with blues icon Joe Bonamassa which debuted at Number One on the Billboard Blues Albums Chart. \nMarc Broussard’s philanthropic efforts extend well over a decade\, beginning with his self-released album Bootleg to Benefit the Victims of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and his efforts to organize the Momentary Setback Fund to provide financial assistance to those displaced by both Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. In 2015\, to further his commitment to tying music to a mission\, he established the S.O.S. Foundation as a conduit to raise money for worthy causes\, including the United Way\, Habitat for Humanity\, the City of Refuge in Atlanta\, Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital in Baton Rouge\, LA\, and the Miami based organization\, Guitars Over Guns. https://www.marcbroussard.com/charity-1  \nBroussard’s latest album\, Time Is a Thief\, is a heartfelt collection of ten original songs that showcase the celebrated Louisiana singer-songwriter’s gritty\, rootsy hooks and infectious grooves\, all conveyed through his fervent vocals. The album marks his first release of original music in seven years and features the uplifting single “Give You The World.” The album has been hailed as “a new masterwork that transcends his previous body of work like the crown jewel does the ascent stones\,” by Blues Rock Review. Louisiana’s The Advocate cited that the “album represents Broussard’s soul- and rhythm-and-blues-informed style better than anything that preceded it.” The album was produced by Grammy-winning guitarist/songwriter/producer Eric Krasno and Grammy-nominated producer/guitarist Jeremy Most. \nIn February 2026\, Broussard will release a new studio album\, S.O.S. V Songs of the ’50s\, via his Artist Tone Records.  The eleven-song set features intoxicating renditions of soul\, blues\, rock\, and pop classics from the Fifties\, two gems from the early Sixties\, and a Broussard original. This vibrant collection offers a sublime showcase for Broussard’s dynamic vocal prowess\, revealing his craftsmanship and passion for an impressive range of enduring American music. S.O.S. V Songs of the ’50s is Broussard’s latest entry in his philanthropic album series benefiting the nonprofit organization\, Love of People\, based in Broussard’s hometown of Lafayette\, LA.

SUMMARY:Charles Wesley Godwin — Mill & Mine — 4/22
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets here & find the add-on bundle here. \nFollowing Charles Wesley Godwin’s 2023 critically acclaimed Family Ties — a highly personal\, 17-song diary-like LP that was both universally praised and catapulted the West Virginian singer-songwriter to new heights in his career — the rising musician returned in 2025 with a pair of releases: The Lonely Mountain Town EP and Live From The Steel City. The former is a quieter\, more contemplative affair than Family Ties\, containing some of the most thrilling songs of Godwin’s career. Written principally on the road\, Lonely Mountain Town is at its heart a collection of on-the-move snapshots and quiet moments in life set to tune. The latter\, Live From The Steel City\, is a raucous live record that perfectly encapsulates the energy Charles Wesley Godwin brings to his performances\, which last year included a sold out Red Rocks headline debut and a string of dates opening Eric Church’s Free The Machine Tour. \nGodwin has been on a steady upward climb following his beloved debut album\, 2019’s Seneca. Alongside his longtime band\, the Allegheny High\, the musician has developed a reputation as a thrilling and beautifully raucous live performer. Godwin has appeared on ESPN’s Sportscenter\, performed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert\, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and CBS Saturday Sessions. 2026 will see Godwin release his 4th full-length album\, as well as a slew of tour dates and festivals\, including Stagecoach and Under The Big Sky\, amongst others.

SUMMARY:Penny & Sparrow — Live at the Bijou — 4/18
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nA wise wizard once said: “when in doubt\, always follow your nose.” \nThe last album from Penny and Sparrow\, Olly Olly\, was a work of revelation and liberation. A search for and an embrace of the self. I imagine they were left with a headscratcher of a question: well\, shit. Where do you go from there? \nFortunately\, they listened to the wizard and followed their noses backwards to find their way forward. \nAiming to strip away pretense and invite experimentation\, they commandeered a garden shed from a friend and retrofitted it to make a twenty-track album that is vast\, weird\, and wholly unexpected. \nIf Lefty is anything\, it is the journal of Penny and Sparrow’s inner child. Dog-eared\, lock busted open. On its pages the sketches of dreams\, nightmares\, erotica\, and literary fan fiction graffiti the margins of poetry\, elegies\, and love letters in the wild colors of saxophone blue\, electronic pink\, and blood harmony red. \nBeautifully varied and richly rendered\, it is an album that wanders from theme to theme\, style to style\, exultation to tragedy. Yet it is never lost. If anything\, it is at play. \nUnited by its intimate vocals and aching harmonies\, its acoustic laments trickle into ethereal pop only to surge into whimsical ballads and crest into grand hooligan anthems that sway gently down to familiar shores where melancholic ballads tell of love lost\, found\, forgotten\, and remembered. \nAndy and Kyle have written some albums in blood. Others they’ve whispered to the sea. This one they danced in the sky with smiles on their faces. Lefty feels like not just a celebration of their journey beyond the bounds of their traditional genre\, but as if they have rediscovered the joy in music by honoring the sounds that inspired two boys growing up in Texas to one day make the damn stuff themselves. \n– Pierce Brown\, author and friend

SUMMARY:Flatland Cavalry — Knoxville Civic Auditorium — 4/18
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nFor the past decade\, Flatland Cavalry has built a reputation as “one of the most dynamic presences in country music” (Rolling Stone) with their signature “Easy on the ears\, heavy on the heart” sound. In 2024\, the sextet celebrated 10 years together with Flatland Forever\, an acclaimed album that pays tribute to their journey\, revisiting fan favorites while introducing new songs that showcase how far they’ve come. \nThe past year has been full of milestones for the Nashville and Texas-based band. They earned their first ACM Award nomination for Group of the Year\, achieved their first RIAA Gold certification for their breakout single “A Life Where We Work Out\,” and made their mark in film and television with contributions to the Twisters and The Hungerames: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes soundtracks\, as well as featured placements on Yellowstone and Landman. Their relentless touring schedule reached new heights\, including sold-out headline performances at Fort Worth’s Dickies Arena and the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre. \nSince first emerging in 2014\, Flatland Cavalry has racked up six #1 singles on Texas Country Radio and amassed more than 500 million streams. Along the way\, they’ve shared the stage with Willie Nelson\, Luke Combs\, Lainey Wilson\, Jordan Davis\, Midland\, and more—proving that their brand of storytelling and musicianship resonates far beyond their roots. \nFlatland Cavalry is Cleto Cordero (vocals\, acoustic guitar)\, Jason Albers (drums\, percussion)\, Jonathan Saenz (bass)\, Reid Dillon (electric guitar)\, Wesley Hall (fiddle)\, and Adam Gallegos (piano\, organ\, keys\, mandolin\, banjo).

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 4/16 — Huey / Shlomo Franklin
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised in Atlanta\, Ga.\, Huey’s songwriting is deeply in southern folk music. Since playing in various groups for the past 8 years\, most notably her own full band “Huey & The Heaven-sent”\, she’s always called the ATL music scene home. “[She] brings some diversity to what people perceive southern music to be” says Atwood Magazine\, following up the release of their second full-length LP “How to Keep Things Alive”. Heart-clenching and poignant lyrics\, married with folk\, sometimes even jazz\, melodies\, Huey’s songwriting reflects the emotions that she’s embedded in her music. Since becoming a solo artist\, she’s developed a side of the folk genre that sounds like nobody else. \n \nShlomo Franklin is an American singer/songwriter born on a small cow farm in upstate New York. Raised off the cultural grid\, without music\, television\, or radio\, his songs are strongly influenced by his cult-like religious upbringing. Shlomo released his debut album in 2019 which was produced by Grammy Award winner C Lanzbom and released a double album follow up from his now Nashville\, TN home. Franklin has opened up for Jakob Dylan and The Wallflowers and shared festivals with The Nude Party and The Bones of JR Jones. His songs seem just as comfortable in front of a crowd of two thousand as they are in a living room house concert. Shlomo sees himself as a bare bones troubadour and is stubbornly trendless. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Little Feat: The Last Farewell Tour - Live at the Tennessee Theatre - 4/13
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nPlaying is the joy and satisfaction of touring\, but it comes with the hard part — travel\, the endless miles on a bus. There’s no dodging the wear and tear\, and Little Feat has been playing for quite a while. With tongue stuck somewhat in cheek\, Little Feat announces “The Last Farewell Tour\,” which will begin in April 2026. It’s definitely not an absolute\, never-gonna-play again statement. This wind-down will take several years to accomplish\, and while it does\, Feat will continue to perform and record as long as they are able. It’s a retirement from the travel of touring.

SUMMARY:DelFest Presents: The Travelin' McCourys — Live at the Bijou — 4/9
DESCRIPTION:Click here for tickets! \nFrom a source deep\, abundant\, and pure the river flows. It’s there on the map\, marking place and time. Yet\, the river changes as it remains a constant\, carving away at the edges\, making new pathways\, gaining strength as it progresses forward. The Travelin’ McCourys are that river. \nThe McCoury brothers—Ronnie (mandolin) and Rob (banjo)—were born into the bluegrass tradition. Talk about a source abundant and pure: their father\, Del\, is among the most influential and successful musicians in the history of the genre. Years on the road with Dad in the Del McCoury Band honed their knife-edge chops and encouraged the duo to imagine how traditional bluegrass could cut innovative pathways into 21st century music. \n“If you put your mind\, your skills\, and your ability to it\, I think you can make just about anything work on bluegrass instruments\,” says Ronnie. “That’s a really fun part of this—figuring the new stuff out and surprising the audience.” \nThe newest member of the band\, fiddler Christian Ward\, joined after Jason Carter moved on to pursue a solo career. Bassist Alan Bartram\, and Cody Kilby on guitar\, they assembled a group that could take what they had in their DNA\, the traditions they learned and heard\, and push the music forward. In fact\, the band became the only group to have each of its members recognized with an International Bluegrass Music Association Award for their instrument at least once. There were peers\, too\, that could see bluegrass as both historic and progressive. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees The Allman Brothers Band\, improv-rock kings Phish\, and jamband contemporary Keller Williams were just a few that formed a mutual admiration society with the ensemble. \nThe band played the Allman’s Wanee Festival and guitarist Warren Haynes’ Christmas Jam—an annual holiday homecoming of Southern music. An early-years jam with the Lee Boys was hailed by many as the highlight of the evening\, and with the video catching fire online\, earned a legion of new\, young fans of their supercharged combination of sacred steel\, R&B\, and bluegrass. There were unforgettable collaborations with country smash Dierks Bentley\, onstage magic jamming with titans String Cheese Incident and Phish\, cutting an album with Keller (Pick)\, and creating the Grateful Ball—a tribute concert-turned-tour bridging bluegrass with the iconic music of the Grateful Dead. \n“That’s something that’s part of us being who we are\,” says Ronnie. “It comes\, too\, with us plugging in. It gets louder\, for sure. We can’t be another version of our dad’s band. It wouldn’t make any sense for us to do that.” \nTheir concerts became can’t-miss events\, whether headlining historic venues or as festival favorites\, drawing the love and respect of a growing fanbase craving their eclectic repertoire. At the 2016 edition of DelFest\, an annual gathering of the genre’s best aptly named for the McCoury patriarch\, the band delivered the take-away highlight. Rolling Stone called it “a sublime combination of rock and bluegrass\, contemporary and classic\, old and young. The best set of the festival…” The river was going new places\, getting stronger. It was time to re-draw the map. \n“We’ve tried to pick songs we think people are going to enjoy\,” says Ronnie. “Something we learned from our dad is that a good song is a good song. It can be done in any way.” \nSo arrives the long-awaited\, self-titled debut album from the quintet. A brilliantly executed set overflowing with inventive style\, stellar musicianship\, and\, of course\, plenty of burnin’ grass\, the 14-song collection is a true culmination of their decades-long journey. From the headwaters of Bill Monroe and the waves of Jerry Garcia to a sound both rooted and revolutionary\, soulful and transcending that belongs only to the Travelin’ McCourys. \n“The album definitely shows what we’ve evolved into as a band. And it’s a pretty good representation of what’s happening with the whole genre\,” says Rob. “The old bluegrass material is something I love but it’s been done many times. We’re forging ahead with our own sound. That’s what you have to do to make it all work.”
