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.”

SUMMARY:Robert Cray Band — Live at the Bijou — 4/3
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets here! \nBlues icon. Soul man. Rock and roller. Robert Cray is all these things – and more. The Georgia-born\, Washington-raised musician first picked up a guitar after seeing The Beatles on TV then\, having witnessed Jimi Hendrix perform in Seattle\, determined that his destiny would also follow a similar path. And so he has: across the past half century Robert Cray’s developed into one of American music’s most singular artists. \n“I guess you’d have to say that we were lucky\,” reflects Cray on his life in music\, “because\, growing up in the 1960s\, the different music played on the radio really opened us up. I mean\, we even had Albert Collins play our high School graduation party.” \nFrom forming a teenage garage band\, through to striding the stage alongside several of the world’s greatest guitarists\, Robert Cray’s story is one of struggle and commitment. Struggle and commitment that led to Cray enjoying phenomenal success – selling millions of albums and countless concert tickets\, winning five Grammy Awards\, being inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame\, recipient of the Americana Music Lifetime Achievement Award\, designing two signature model Fender guitars – yet for Robert what’s always mattered most is the music. Every note he plays counts\, every song he sings is delivered as if it is his last: integrity and intensity are what has guided Cray’s musical career. He has never cheapened his output or delivered a substandard performance. Indeed\, his commitment to making music of the highest standard has won Cray both a loyal audience and the respect of many of popular music’s most legendary figures. \nThink about it: Robert Cray has shared stage and/or studio with the likes of John Lee Hooker\, Muddy Waters\, B.B. King\, Buddy Guy\, Chuck Berry\, Albert Collins\, The Rolling Stones\, Eric Clapton\, Tina Turner\, Stevie Ray Vaughan\, the Memphis Horns and Hi Rhythm Section. Cray’s stinging guitar playing and soulful voice\, his skills as a band leader and performer\, mark him as keeper of the flame for American roots music\, an artist who never fails to deliver. \n“We were so lucky just be able to see them\,” says Cray of trading guitar licks on stage with legends of blues\, rock and soul\, “let alone share the stage with them – what an experience!”\nCray’s rise to the top was\, like his music\, a slow burn\, he first building a following in small towns across the Pacific Northwest. Even before Cray had a record deal he enjoyed local hero status – so much so in 1978 he was cast (as a musician) in Animal House\, the blockbuster comedy that made John Belushi famous. 1978 was also the year Cray recorded his debut album\, Who’s Been Talkin’\, although Tomato Records’ internal problems held up Talkin’s release until 1980. And then\, just as Talkin’ was winning great reviews\, Tomato collapsed into bankruptcy. Got the blues? Young Robert certainly could have claimed he had them. But Cray isn’t given to complaining\, instead he persevered\, committed then\, as he is now\, to taking his music to the people. \nAfter Tomato\, Cray and his band – today consisting of Richard Cousins (bass guitar – there since high school days)\, Dover Weinberg (keyboards) and Les Falconer (drums) – used the momentum the album gave them to play further afield. By now Cray was buddies with a young guitarist from Texas: Stevie Ray Vaughan. \n“We played in 1979 at the San Francisco Blues Festival\,” recalls Cray\, “and I watched Stevie’s show and he’s just smoking. Afterwards Richard and I went up and chatted with him and we just hit it off. Stevie was great – if we were in Austin he’d always come and join us on stage.” \nSigning to Hightone\, Cray’s 1983 album Bad Influence established him internationally: he was invited to play Carnegie Hall\, toured Europe\, later finding Eric Clapton recording Bad Influence’s title track. 1985 saw Cray’s False Accusations album increase his standing as the foremost singer of blues noir songs\, while that year’s Showdown! – a sizzling collaboration with guitarists’ Albert Collins and Johnny Copeland – won Robert huge acclaim from blues musicians and fans: the new guy’s the real deal! Signing to Mercury Records\, Cray’s 1986 album Strong Persuader ensured he became the first blues/soul musician to breakthrough in the MTV era. \nStrong Persuader won Cray rave reviews from pop and rock critics\, topped charts worldwide\, saw Cray grace the cover of Rolling Stone magazine and winning the Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues Recording in 1988. Strong Persuader\, with its songs of infidelity\, guilt and unease\, while not in any sense conventional Top 40 music\, proved so strong an album it broke through barriers\, sold millions of copies and would prove extremely influential (2026 being the 40th anniversary.) Cray’s breakthrough allowed both young and older blues and soul musicians to gain wide attention and radio play: John Lee Hooker’s career resurrection came soon after with The Healer\, and Robert plays on that seminal album. \n“It was great to be able to travel around the world\,” says Cray of Strong Persuader’s success. “It afforded us a lot of great opportunities that we were lucky to experience.” Cray’s being modest here: suddenly he found himself the hottest guitarist working – Tina Turner invited Robert to support her huge European tour (every night\, after playing with his band\, Cray would join Tina on stage to play A Change Is Gonna Come)\, then Keith Richards called\, requesting Cray join the band backing Chuck Berry for Taylor Hackford’s celebratory feature length documentary Hail Hail Rock ‘N’ Roll. Here Cray not only got to play with the mercurial Berry (+Linda Ronstadt and Etta James\, amongst many notable artists)\, he also formed a friendship with Steve Jordan\, then drummer for the project and Richards’ solo band. \nNow internationally famous\, Cray found himself in intense demand: he toured with The Stones and played with B.B King\, Buddy Guy and Eric Clapton. Headlining in noted music festivals – these included Glastonbury in the UK and Crossroads Guitar Festival in the US – and kept developing his sound over a selection of strong albums across the 1990s. Cray’s songwriting has addressed ageing\, love\, loneliness\, domestic turmoil and US politics. \nAs an artist Robert Cray’s aged like fine wine – his voice has developed a greater range and expressiveness\, this he’s put to use on masterful interpretations of such Southern soul standards as I Forgot To Be Your Lover (William Bell)\, Your Good Thing Is About To End (Mable John) and Nobody’s Fault But Mine (Otis Redding). At the same time\, Cray’s guitar playing now possesses an additional depth\, a growl that can hint at a caress then signal emotional upheaval. \nHis recent run of albums – 2014’s In My Soul\, 2017’s Robert Cray & Hi Rhythm and 2020’s masterful That’s What I Heard (all produced by Steve Jordan: now the Stones’ drummer) – are\namongst the very finest he’s made. Every song here is deeply felt\, whether an agonized song of loss\, an angry protest number\, or a dance tune that gets audiences pumping (My Baby Likes To Boogaloois great funky fun). \nAcross five decades Robert Cray has created a richly inclusive American music\, revitalizing both blues and soul while rocking hard with the very best. To achieve 50 years in the music industry and still be as fresh and committed as when starting out is an achievement few can boast of but Cray can: he has released 19 studio albums\, every one replete with his extremely distinctive songs\, won five Grammy Awards and continues to make music that sounds like no one but Robert Cray. “All these years we have been fortunate to do what we love doing\, playing the music we love playing\,” says Cray with a smile. “I couldn’t ask for anything more.”

SUMMARY:Lucius — Live at the Bijou — 4/1
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets here! \nKnown for their engaging live performances and spell-binding harmonies\, Grammy-nominated indie-pop band Lucius are a mesmerizing experience of mirrored kinship and honesty. In 2025\, the band released their fourth studio album\, Lucius\, which Rolling Stone called “the best album of their career.” Lucius’ most personal and purposeful album to date explores relationships\, motherhood\, and life’s complexities with a unique vulnerability only made possible due to the familial nature of the band. The New Yorker praises\, “The band’s new self-titled album reaches the pinnacle of a vibrant\, harmonic enterprise\,” while Paste describes their sound as “girl-group revivalism\, cosmic pop\, and a kind of bicoastal harmonizing that once echoed through western canyons.” \nLucius’ self-titled record follows an impressive history of critically acclaimed full-length projects. Their debut\, Wildewoman\, introduced their signature dual lead vocals and retro charm. It was widely praised for the album’s throwback sound with NPR declaring it “perfect\, magnetic pop music” Meanwhile\, The Guardian called lead singers Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig’s voices “powerful … melding beautifully in harmony.” With the release of Good Grief in 2016\, Lucius traded some of their folk roots for polished synth-pop. \nThe band’s acclaimed 2022 record\, Second Nature\, marked a striking return\, and was produced by Brandi Carlile and Dave Cobb. Released to overwhelming acclaim\, the Los Angeles Times praised\, “dazzling…Second Nature mines an ’80s-pop sound with lush synths and sleek disco grooves under the women’s laser- guided vocals\,” while Relix proclaimed\, “stunning…a 10-song\, smart-pop masterpiece.” Throughout their acclaimed career\, Lucius has performed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”\, “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”\, BBC’s Later! with Jools Holland\, PBS’ “Austin City Limits” and “The Kelly Clarkson Show”. Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe are some of the most sought-after collaborators in popular music due to their “otherworldly” vocals (Los Angeles Times). The duo have recorded and performed with many artists including Joni Mitchell\, Mumford and Sons\, The National\, Harry Styles\, Ringo Starr\, Ozzy Osborne\, Sheryl Crow\, and Brandi Carlile including appearances on the Grammy stage and NBC’s “Saturday Night Live.” Lucius are Laessig\, Wolfe\, and Peter Lalish.

SUMMARY:Lucero — Mill & Mine — 3/22
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nSince forming in Memphis in the late 90’s\, Lucero’s base musical hallmarks have remained similar to the band’s initial sound established with their first record The Attic Tapes. In the history of their expansive discography\, Lucero has evolved and embraced everything from southern rock to Stax-inspired Memphis soul\, whilst simultaneously maintaining their distinctive sonic foundations. Over 20 years later\, dedicated fans of the group still flock to hear the band’s punchy driving rhythms\, punk-rooted guitar licks\, and lyrics that evoke the whiskey drenched sentimentality of Americana singer-songwriters. As expected of any band built to survive\, Lucero has welcomed change over the course of their career\, but it has always been on their terms.

SUMMARY:Old Crow Medicine Show - Live at the Tennessee Theatre - 3/20/26
DESCRIPTION:Support for WDVX comes from the historic Tennessee Theatre on Gay Street in downtown Knoxville. WDVX is a media sponsor for the Old Crow Medicine Show Friday night March 20th. Tickets go on sale this Friday morning 12/12 at 10am at Tennessee Theatre dot com and the Tennessee Theatre box office. This night includes the opening of the new six twelve building annex! \nFor Old Crow Medicine Show\, playing music has always felt like a holiday celebration. \n“We’re in the joy business\,” says frontman Ketch Secor\, who launched the Grammy-winning band in 1998. “From the very start\, a lot of the virtues of Christmas — the revelry\, the singalongs\, the happiness — have been present in our show.” \nNowhere is that more apparent than OCMS XMAS\, the group’s first holiday album. Decorated with seasonal spirit and string-band stomp\, it’s the rare breed of Christmas record that packs a punch all year long\, shining new light on the band’s chart-topping version of American roots music. Old Crow Medicine Show aren’t just reinterpreting their favorite yuletide standards; they’re adding new songs to the canon\, too\, from “Jolly Man” — a country-blues number inspired by Mississippi John Hurt and laced with harmonica\, sleigh bells\, and resonator guitar — to the Zydeco-flavored “All About A Baby.” \nThey’re telling fresh stories\, too. On “Corn Whiskey Christmas\,” a bootlegger drives his Chevrolet through the snow on Christmas Eve\, bringing moonshine to those craving a cup of cheer. On the John Prine-worthy “Bethlehem\, PA” — a sly reimagining of Jesus’ birth story\, with lyrics that substitute Steel Country for Jerusalem — the band heads to the Keystone State to witness the Nativity\, making stops at Wawa and Motel 6 along the way. “Grandpa’s Gone” grapples with the loss of a family figure during the holiday season\, while the wicked “Krampus Night” puts a minor-key spin on the Christmas catalog\, paying tribute to a folkloric creature who\, according to Secor\, “just might leave ya coal and steal your soul.” \nFor more than a quarter century\, Old Crow Medicine Show’s albums have built a bridge between past and present\, updating the sounds of pre-war folk\, country\, old-time\, and bluegrass for the 21st century. OCMS XMAS continues that custom. There’s plenty of tradition here: a cover of “Holly Jolly Christmas\,” featuring horns from the Tennessee State University ensemble Brassville; a rowdy version of the Appalachian standard “Breakin’ Up Xmas\,” recorded live in the band’s East Nashville headquarters; and a timely take on John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s global peace anthem “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)\,” stacked with church harmonies. Balancing out that reverence for the past\, though\, are songs that boldly live in the present\, from barn-burners like “December 26” (which marks the songwriting debut of longtime band member Morgan Jahnig) to “North By Northeast\,” a tribute to New England winters. That fusion of old and new has always played a crucial role in the band’s longevity. More than 20 years after the release of “Wagon Wheel” — one of the best-selling country singles of all time\, combining a forgotten chorus by Bob Dylan with original verses from Ketch Secor — OCMS XMAS uphold’s Old Crow’s combination of the timely with the timelessness. \n“Some of our favorite country artists are those in the Grand Ole Opry\,” says Secor\, who was inducted into the Opry alongside his bandmates in 2013. “The kind of country music that came out of Nashville during the ’60s\, ’70s\, and ’80s is so different than what you hear today\, and we’ve learned a lot from the elder statesmen of our genre. Many of those cats released Christmas albums and went out on Christmas tours every year\, so there’s a real legacy there. We get to be part of that with this project.” \nA real legacy\, indeed. Old Crow have thrived for more than a quarter century. Like many of their heroes\, they’ve become torchbearers of classic folk music\, reshaping those sounds for the modern world. They’re creators\, not replicators\, and OCMS XMAS finds them tackling another tradition — the time-honored Christmas album — with humor\, hillbilly twang\, and novel ideas. Supported by the band’s first-ever “Holiday Hootenanny” tour\, OCMS XMAS just might be the start of a new tradition itself: a celebration of the seasonal sounds\, shared joy\, and holiday rituals that bring us all together. Christmas just got a new soundtrack.

SUMMARY:Wednesday — Mill & Mine — 3/13
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nCan a self-portrait be a collage? Can empathy be autobiographical? What’s the point of living if we’re not trying to understand all the horror and humor that surrounds everything? These are a few of the questions lurking under the bleachers of Wednesday’s new album Bleeds\, an intoxicating collection of narrative-heavy Southern rock that—like many of the most arresting passages from the North Carolina band’s highlight reel so far—thoughtfully explores the vivid link between curiosity and confession. \nBleeds is not only the best Wednesday record—it’s also the most Wednesday record\, a patchwork-style triumph of literary allusions and outlaw grit\, of place-based poetry and hair-raising noise. Karly Hartzman—founder\, frontwoman\, and primary lyricist—credits Wednesday’s tightened grasp on their own identity to time spent collaborating on previous albums\, plus a tour schedule that’s been both rewarding and relentless. “Bleeds is the spiritual successor to Rat Saw God\, and I think the quintessential ‘Wednesday Creek Rock’ album\,” Hartzman said\, articulating satisfaction with the ways her band has sharpened its trademark sound\, how they’ve refined the formula that makes them one of the most interesting rock bands of their generation. “This is what Wednesday songs are supposed to sound like\,” she said. “We’ve devoted a lot of our lives to figuring this out—and I feel like we did.”

SUMMARY:Darrell Scott & Will Hoge — Live at the Bijou — 3/7
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets here! \nAbout Darrell Scott: \nMulti-Instrumentalist and Singer-Songwriter Darrell Scott mines and cultivates the everyday moment\, taking the rote\, menial\, mundane\, and allowing it to be surreal\, ever poignant\, and candidly honest\, lilting\, blooming\, and resonating. The words he fosters allow us to make sense of the world\, what is at stake here\, and our place in it. And ultimately\, Darrell knows the sole truth of life is that love is all that matters\, that we don’t always get it right\, but that’s the instinctive and requisite circuitous allure of things\, why we forever chase it\, and why it is held sacred. \nDarrell Scott comes from a musical family with a father who had him smitten with guitars by the age of 4\, alongside a brother who played Jerry Reed style as well. From there\, things only ramped up with literature and poetry endeavors while a student at Tufts University\, along with playing his way through life. This would never change. \nAfter recently touring with Robert Plant and the Zac Brown Band (2 years with each)\, and producing albums for Malcolm Holcomb and Guy Clark and being named “songwriter of the year” for both ASCAP and NSAI\, these days find him roaming his Tennessee wilderness acreage hiking along the small river\, creating delicious meals with food raised on his property and playing music. He often leads songwriting workshops to help people tell their own truths with their stories\, and is as busy as always writing\, producing\, performing\, and just plain fully immersing himself in life. \nCareer Highlights: \nGrammy Nomination for Best Country Song – “Long Time Gone” Dixie Chicks 2003Grammy Nomination for Best Country Instrumental Performance – “The Second Mouse” 2001Americana 2007 Song of the Year – “Hank Williams’ Ghost”Rolling Stone Magazine listed Theatre of the Unheard as one of the 2003 Critics Top AlbumsASCAP Songwriter of the Year 2002NSAI Songwriter of the Year 2001 \nSongs recorded by over 70 artists including: Dixie Chicks\, Keb Mo\, Faith Hill\, Guy Clark\, Sam Bush\, Maura O’Connell\, Kathy Mattea\, Brad Paisley\, Sara Evans\, Garth Brooks\, Patty Loveless\, Trace Adkins\, Tim McGraw … \nRecorded With: Steve Earle\, Kate Rusby\, Joan Baez\, Jim Lauderdale\, Jimmie Dale Gilmore\, Jon Pousette-Dart\, Ginny Hawker\, Malcolm Holcombe\, John McCusker\, Allison Moorer\, Jessie Alexander\, Randy Travis… \nProduction: Guy Clark\, Susan Werner\, Wayne Scott \nAbout Will Hoge: \nWill Hoge will release Sweet Misery\, the Grammy-nominated artist’s 15th studio album on Friday\, August 22. On Sweet Misery\, Hoge reminds listeners that he isn’t afraid to break new ground – all while giving a keen nod to his rock and roll roots with the kind of grace and purpose that only comes with experience – without the baggage of predictability. In Will’s own words – “Following the re-recording and re-releases of Carousel and Blackbird On A Lonely Wire I found myself really wanting to make a louder\, hooky\, rock-n-roll band record again. Good stories\, big choruses\, shit to make you play it loud and drive fast with the windows down. I was without a band so I enlisted a crew of folks who I love – folks that I believed could really help bring out the bigger ideas in the songs. I hope folks will find some headphones and give it a good\, loud listen. Top to bottom\, the way albums should be listened to.” \nWill Hoge has a career whose milestones include Number One hits\, Grammy nods\, major-label record deals\, and hard-won independence. Years before Americana music received its own category at the Grammy Awards\, Hoge was on the frontlines\, helping to pilot and popularize the genre’s blend of American roots music. In the current digital era dominated by influencers seeking shortcuts to stardom\, Will Hoge proudly treads the scenic route\, immersing himself in the journey rather than fixating on the destination.

SUMMARY:The Lone Bellow — Live at the Bijou — 2/26
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nWith their upcoming sixth studio album\, “What A Time To Be Alive\,”  The Lone Bellow embarks on a bold new chapter while honoring the deep bonds that have defined their journey. Written collaboratively for the first time with their full touring band—founding members Zach Williams\, Brian Elmquist\, and Kanene Pipkin joined by drummer Julian Dorio and multi-instrumentalist Tyler Geertsma—the album channels the raw\, ecstatic energy of the band’s live show into a dynamic collection of songs that pulse with warmth\, honesty\, and human connection. \nRecorded live in Muscle Shoals\, AL\, after a writing retreat in a converted Kentucky firehouse\, the album is both a celebration and a reckoning: of friendship\, loss\, love\, and resilience. From the gritty\, Stones-tinged opener “After The Rain” to the soul-stirring closer “What A Time To Be Alive\,” the record captures the joy and vulnerability that have long defined The Lone Bellow’s sound—lush harmonies\, heartfelt lyrics\, and genre-blurring arrangements steeped in folk\, rock\, and gospel. \nThe album’s creation was marked by setbacks\, including the theft of early recordings\, but the outpouring of support from their fanbase reaffirmed what the band has always known: their music is a shared experience. That spirit echoes throughout the album\, whether in anthems like“Common Folk” and “I’m Here For You\,” or in intimate reflections like “You Were Leaving” and “Night Goes Black.” \nSince their acclaimed 2013 debut\, The Lone Bellow has appeared on The Tonight Show\, Austin City Limits\, and The Late Show\, topped Americana charts\, and headlined storied venues from Carnegie Hall to the Ryman Auditorium. But with their next album\, they reaffirm their commitment not just to making music\, but to building community—on stage\, in song\, and around the table. \nAbout Fabrizio (opening act): \nBorn in the highlands of Huánuco\, Peru\, he set out on his own and landed in the foothills of Georgia at the age of 15 to fend for himself. Fabrizio brings a truly unique voice and perspective to the Americana and country music scene. With a deep\, powerfulbaritone that can shake the walls and stir the soul\, Fabrizio fuses the raw emotion of traditional country with the storytelling spirit of his journey. Now based in Nashville\, TN at 23\, Fabrizio continues to carve out a space in the Southern music scene\, captivating audiences with his commanding voice. He’s not just a singer\, he’s a storyteller with a voice that doesn’t just sing the song\, he lives it.

SUMMARY:Live From the Bijou - 1/17 - Cosmic Charlie
DESCRIPTION:CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS & INFO! \nCosmic Charlie was born in the musical Mecca of Athens\, Georgia. From its summer 1999 inception\, the band swiftly cemented its reputation as a band that puts a unique and personal twist on the Grateful Dead catalogue. Cosmic Charlie is a Dead cover band for folks that are ambivalent about Dead cover bands. \nRather than mimicking the Dead exactly\, Cosmic Charlie chooses to tap into the Dead’s energy and style as a foundation on which to build. The result is healthy balance of creativity and tradition\, where both the band and its audience are taken to that familiar edge with the sense that\, music is actually being MADE here tonight. \nMoving and shaking even the most skeptical of Deadheads\, Cosmic Charlie storms into a town and plays with an energy that eludes other bands\, an energy that sometimes eluded the Dead themselves. Those precious moments during Dead jams when the synchronicity is there and all is right with the world – these are the moments that Cosmic Charlie relishes and feverishly welcomes with open arms. Clearly\, Cosmic Charlie’s audiences are also eager to partake in these moments\, and together with the band\, they have indulged in many memorable evenings. \nMost nights\, Cosmic Charlie walks onstage without a setlist\, not even knowing what the first song will be. Any Dead tune can rear its head at any moment\, and fan requests are always welcome. “INSPIRATON\, MOVE ME BRIGHTLY” is Cosmic Charlie’s mantra\, allowing the music to truly play the band.

SUMMARY:Live at the Bijou - 1/15 - Dan Tyminski
DESCRIPTION:CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS & INFO! \nDan Tyminski was six years old when his parents began taking him to fiddle contests\, square dances\, and bluegrass festivals across New England. For a young musician who would later become one of the biggest names in modern-day bluegrass\, those early experiences were life changing. \n“Watching live music always spoke to me much louder than sitting in front of my record player\,” he remembers. “I loved it. Wherever music was being played\, I wanted to go watch. Years later\, I still feel that way.” \nThroughout his 30+ year career\, Tyminski has left his mark in every corner of modern music. His voice famously accompanies George Clooney’s performance of the Stanley Brothers’ classic song\, “I Am A Man of Constant Sorrow\,” in the film\, Oh Brother\, Where Art Thou? and his vocal collaboration with Swedish DJ Avicii on the song “Hey Brother” was a global smash\, having been streamed more than a billion times to date. His diverse solo projects and years of work with Alison Krauss and Union Station have yielded troves of award-winning music. \nIn recent years\, Tyminski’s live shows with the Dan Tyminski Band have become bluegrass fan favorites and are regularly on the must-see lists among music fans of any genre. \nWith his newest album release – the Grammy-nominated 2024 concert album Dan Tyminski: Live From The Ryman – he captures the magic of those live shows\, while also proving that he still has the same passion for live music as he did when he was growing up. \nHis earliest touring and recording work was as a part of the band\, Green Mountain Bluegrass. He later joined the influential bluegrass group\, Lonesome River Band\, before embarking on his three decades of work with Alison Krauss and Union Station. \nThe first album that Tyminski recorded as a solo artist was the soul-stirring Carry Me Across the Mountain (2000)\, followed by the Grammy-nominated Wheels (2008) which was named the 2009 Album of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association. His work with the EDM artist\, Avicii\, inspired Dan to create the genre-defying Southern Gothic album\, released in 2017 to much critical acclaim. Tyminski would then showcase again his heart for bluegrass with the 2022 EP tribute to Tony Rice\, One More Time Before You Go\, which included guest performances by Molly Tuttle\, Sam Bush\, Dailey & Vincent\, and Billy Strings. The following year saw the release of the full-length bluegrass album\, God Fearing Heathen\, which quickly hit #1 on Billboard’s Bluegrass Albums chart. \nOver the course of his career\, Tyminski has also evolved into a prolific songwriter\, penning songs with Monty Criswell\, Phillip Lammonds\, Kristian Bush\, Ashley Monroe\, Chris Stapleton and many others. \nDan has been honored with 14 Grammy Awards and is a four-time Male Vocalist of the Year honoree by the International Bluegrass Music Association. He has also recorded instrumental or vocal harmony contributions for projects by Martina McBride\, Reba McEntire\, Brad Paisley\, Dolly Parton\, Willie Nelson\, Joan Osborne\, Charlie Daniels\, Kenny Chesney\, LeAnn Rimes\, Rob Thomas\, and Charlie Haden\, to name a few. Tyminski certainly represents the pinnacle of modern bluegrass music. \nWhile Dan enjoys a good conversation and a good cigar\, he can often be found participating in charitable Pro-Am golf tournaments\, as well as competing regularly in the Foosball tournament circuit. \n

Doors at 4 p.m. Thanks to Sugarlands Distillery for their support. WDVX is a media sponsor. \n8pm to 9:30pm – Wyatt Ellis\n6:15pm to 7:45pm – The Deep Fakes (tom petty tribute set)\n5pm to 6pm – Vaden landers \nFrom the enchanting landscapes of Eastern Tennessee comes the burgeoning talent of Vaden Landers\, a 30-year-old artist weaving a tapestry of melodies that harken back to the golden era of country music. Vaden’s journey began as a train-hopping troubadour and street-busker\, crafting songs that resonate with the very soul of Americana. \nAffectionately dubbed “The Yodeling Country Bluesman\,” Vaden has etched his name into the vibrant streets of Asheville\, North Carolina. His authenticity shines as a torchbearer of the classic country tradition\, infused with a contemporary spark. \nWith an eclectic fusion of honky-tonk\, rockabilly\, folk\, blues\, ragtime\, jazz\, western swing\, and old-time Appalachian influences\, Vaden Landers emerges as a pioneer breathing new life into the traditional country music scene. His performances at various music festivals\, including the illustrious WoodyFest and the renowned Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion\, have left audiences enraptured. \nAs Vaden Landers takes the stage\, he invites you to embark on an enthralling journey – one that transcends time and genre. \n \nWyatt Ellis has accomplished more by age 16 than many musicians do in a lifetime. Hailing from the foothills of the Smoky Mountains in East Tennessee\, he’s quickly emerging as one of bluegrass music’s brightest young stars. With virtuosic mandolin playing\, heartfelt vocals\, and original songwriting\, Wyatt blends the deep traditions of bluegrass with a fresh\, youthful energy. Backed by a powerhouse band of Appalachia’s finest young musicians\, Wyatt delivers high-octane performances that range from the Grand Ole Opry to major festivals like MerleFest and Gray Fox. His band’s signature single-mic setup showcases their tight harmonies\, high-lonesome vocals\, and blistering solos\, creating a sound steeped in tradition yet driven by the future. Wyatt’s breakout year included a debut at the Newport Folk Festival\, chart-topping original instrumentals from his debut album\, and becoming one of the youngest regular performers in Grand Ole Opry history. His authentic Appalachian songwriting and seasoned stage presence have quickly set him apart as a once-in-a-generation talent with a deep respect for bluegrass music’s heritage. 2024’s IBMA Momentum Instrumentalist of the Year and twice nominated for IBMA’s New Artist of the Year\, Wyatt has collaborated with legends like Peter Rowan\, Marty Stuart\, and the late Bobby Osborne. His January 2025 release\, Winds of Rowan County\, a duet with Rowan\, celebrated bluegrass roots while symbolically passing the torch. Wyatt’s lead and harmony mandolin solo on Bobby Osborne’s final recording of “Rocky Top\,” along with their co-written instrumental “Fern Branch\,” were both featured on Osborne’s posthumous album\, a tribute to Wyatt’s connection to his hero and mentor. With a debut vocal album of all-new original songs on the way\, Wyatt Ellis stands poised at the forefront of bluegrass\, honoring the legacy of the genre while boldly pushing it forward into a new era. \n \nFrom rock ‘n roll to new wave\, The Deep Fakes play spot on versions of our favorite music of the cassette and vinyl era. Whether it’s a chart topping hit or a deep cut\, every effort is made to accurately capture and reproduce the original studio release. \n  \n \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
