SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 8/15 — Trey Hedrick / Jeff BearCat Bunch
DESCRIPTION:Trey Hedrick is a modern Appalachian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose sound blends Appalachian folk\, Americana\, and blue-collar country. Deeply rooted in the storied hills of southeastern Ohio along the West Virginia border\, his music is as textured and layered as the region he calls home. Drawing from the landscape and lineage that shaped him\, Trey writes with a deep reverence for generational memory\, places\, and the stories that define us. \nThat storytelling comes into full focus on his forthcoming debut album\, Sing Appalachia\, out Friday\, October 17. Recorded in May 2025 at the Tractor Shed in Nashville with GRAMMY-winning producer and engineer Sean Sullivan (Sturgill Simpson\, Tyler Childers\, John Prine)\, the record is a testament to Trey’s belief in the power of place and honest songwriting. It also features a special guest appearance by one of Trey’s longtime heroes\, Tim O’Brien — a full-circle moment for an artist who grew up studying his records. \nRaised in a proud\, working-class family where music was as natural as breathing\, Trey’s earliest memories involve instruments constantly moving through the room — a guitar\, a mandolin\, a fiddle — always in someone’s hands. His grandfather\, a retired coal miner and a well-regarded local musician\, had “such a rich and textured voice and an ability to make anything his\,” Trey recalls. “Don’t just play it — mean it\, make it yours\,” his grandfather would say. That legacy left its mark. \nThough Trey spent years as a guitarist and mandolin player\, it wasn’t until recently that he stepped forward as a songwriter and solo artist. “I never wanted to be someone who just talked about doing things and never actually did\,” he says. “There were a lot of those guys where I grew up\, and it scared the hell out of me.” His songs reflect that urgency and humility — written to feel honest\, never traditional just for tradition’s sake. “I’m not here to cosplay Appalachia\,” he adds. “If it sounds traditional one day and something else the next\, that’s what came out when I picked up the guitar.” \nEven as his sound sits comfortably within Appalachian and Americana traditions\, there’s a subtle freshness to it. Trey developed a deep love for flatpicking early on\, drawn to the drive and precision of players like Clarence White\, Tony Rice\, and Doc Watson. His influences stretch far and wide — from bluegrass trailblazers like Tim O’Brien and Ralph Stanley to the powerhouse blues vocals of Susan Tedeschi\, with nods to Aretha Franklin and Bobby Bland\, and even ‘90s R&B and hip-hop woven in. “If something swings or grooves a little\, that’s probably why\,” he laughs. “I’d like to think all those influences come across in my debut album — that was kind of the point anyway.\n \nJeff BearCat Bunch: A behind the scenes kind of guy for a number of years. \nWorking with other artists as a tour manager\, roadie\, merch guy\, driver\, fan\, friend\, etc… \nhoning in on the craft of songwriting and story telling. \nIndependent and nationally touring singer/songwriter/storyteller\, \nOriginally from Knoxville\,TN. \nBased in Nashville\, TN. \nOver the past few years BC has shared stages with names like Scott H. Biram\, Wayne “The Train” Hancock\, Kade Hoffman\, Josh Morningstar\, Jesse Dayton\, Billy Don Burns\, Cass Jones\, Ellis Bullard\, Rob Leines\, Sunny Sweeney\, Kayla Ray\, Gus Clark\, Alex Williams\, Justin Wells\, \nWes Shipp\, Casper McWade\, Dallas Burrow\, Dallas Moore\, Taylor Hunnicutt\, Elizabeth Cook\, Silverada among a ton of others \nopening shows/touring with\, tour managing\, special guest appearance\, festivals\, etc. \nHas been on the OUTLAW COUNTRY CRUISES put on by Sirius XM outlaw country station \nSharing the bill with acts like \nBlackberry Smoke\, Steve Earle\, Lucinda Williams\, Roger Alan Wade\, Elizabeth Cook\, Mojo Nixon\, Jesse Dayton\, Scott H. Biram\, Dale Watson\, Ray Wylie Hubbard\, Supersuckers\, 49 Winchester\, The Mavericks\, Nikki Lane\, Sarah Gayle Meech\, Vandoliers\, Joshua Ray Walker\, Silverada\, etc. \nWell traveled\, well versed\, and well taught rambler \nout living the words of the songs he sings.

DESCRIPTION:Michael Reno Harrell is an award winning songwriter\, a published author\, a nationally known storyteller and a visual artist. And he’s from the Southern Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina where all those things are as much a part of life as breathing.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 8/11 — Evie Andrus and Friends
DESCRIPTION:Evie Andrus has spent most of her adult life adding tasty licks to other people’s projects\, adding just the right ingredient to make a piece of music sound its best. With the release of her first album under her own name\, “Evie’s Great Adventure\,” the fiddler/vocalist ready to deliver the main course. \nThe new album is flat-out feel-good music delivered with the same heart and soul that’s made Evie a popular performed all across the Southeast. \nMaybe you caught her bands Barefoot Sanctuary or Buffalo Fiasco\, or heard her backing up renowned cellist Dave Eggar\, irreverent singer-songwriter Roger Alan Wade\, or performing at the Big Ears Festival with improvisational great Lonnie Holley\, or maybe you spotted her backing up Foreigner on a short tour. There’s also the possibility that you heard her music on the HBO series “The Outsider” or saw her appearance on “American Ninja Warrior.” \nBorn in Fargo\, N.D. and raised in Minot\, N.D.\, Evie began playing fiddle at six years old in her father’s band Crossroads\, but she was already a stage veteran. She first performed on stage at the age of 3\, blowing a train whistle\, on one of her father’s songs. \nWhen Evie was in the 4th grade\, her father started a family band called Family Ties\, which included her father on banjo and her brother Joe on bass. Mom ran sound for the group. \n“Our thing was to wear funny ties\,” says Evie. “My favorite was a rubber Swiss cheese tie … In the summer\, we were out and about. We played a lot around North Dakota\, South Dakota\, Minnesota and Canada\, Good Sam conventions and re-enactments\, fur trade re-enactments.” \nWho even knew there were “fur trade” re-enactments? \nAll through high school\, Evie performed in bluegrass bands and her high school orchestra\, but she didn’t have a lot in common with her classmates. \n“I grew up in a very bluegrass-centric family\,” she says. “Plus\, we had no TV. My entertainment was listening to (vintage radio shows) ‘Sherlock Holmes\,’ ‘Dragnet’ and ‘Inner Sanctum.’” \nEvie later attended North Dakota State University\, majoring in athletic training\, and playing in a group called Ironwood and\, later\, Sisters of the North on the side. It was an encounter with East Tennessee bluegrass act Blue Moon Rising that made Evie decide to move to East Tennessee. She moved to Johnson City\, Tenn.\, and landed a scholarship in the East Tennessee State University bluegrass program. \n“My first fiddle teacher there was (former Bluegrass Boys’ fiddler) Tater Tate\,” says Evie. “I couldn’t believe I was getting a scholarship to take lessons from Tater Tate!” \nWhile in Johnson City she worked at the Acoustic Coffee House\, working as a server and making music. She was a regular at late-night jam sessions and later became a favorite player to accompany singer-songwriters. \n“It was a different approach to music than what I had done before\,” says Evie. “It was kind of freeing in a way.” \nAfter a graduation\, Evie returned to North Dakota for few years before taking a music job in with the  Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Show in Pigeon Forge\, Tenn. \nAfter a year and a half of dinner shows\, Evie leaned into teaching and playing with a variety of bands and musicians and then founded Barefoot Sanctuary\, which later became Buffalo Fiasco. A gig with Lonnie Holley at the Big Ears Festival led to Evie getting a call from HBO to be part of the limited series “The Outsider.” \n“The scene at the festival with the fiddle tunes\, that’s me!” says Evie. “I’m blurry in the background\, but it was really awesome.” \nAs a side person\, Evie says she’s always known where she fits. \n“I call myself a Jell-O player\,” says Evie. “There’s always room for Jell-O. It fills in all the cracks.” \nWith the release of “Evie’s Great Adventure\,” though\, she knows where she fits as well. \n“I’m really excited to get my true musical voice out more\,” says Evie. “In an odd way\, it took the pandemic to make me take time to find my voice. Now I want to share my love of music and adventure. It’s not earth shattering. It’s something people can put on and just have a great afternoon.”

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 8/10 — Sam Kucera / Songs of the Folk
DESCRIPTION:Sam Kucera: Singer/Songwriter \n \nA.T. and Lauren Cason were born in different parts of the Carolinas and met while studying music in college in the early 2000’s—they have been singing and playing together ever since. Both hold Master’s degrees in music yet maintain the heritage of their place and people\, having grown up in musical families that embodied the traditions of the area. The combination of their training and the roots of their Carolina Piedmont upbringing helped the couple naturally craft a unique and authentic American folk music sound that’s as current and innovative as it is steeped in the folk\, country\, and blues music influences of the American South. The sound of Songs of the Folk is aptly described by Folk and Honey\, one of the UK’s leading folk music publications: \n“Their original songs have a slick\, contemporary musicianship underlying them..their tasteful instrumentation always helping to bring their rootsy subject matters to life.” \nHaving performed for years throughout the Eastern US\, the Casons moved to England where they spent several years touring extensively in the UK\, making a name for themselves within the music circuit of England by playing in a variety of venues from historic folk clubs in Cambridge\, Colchester\, and Norwich to internationally-recognized venues such as the Glasshouse International Centre for Music in Gateshead and the Queen’s Hall Theatre in Kent. They have also achieved international acclaim for their song\, A Feeling I Get\, a semi-finalist in the 2024 International Songwriting Competition. \nAfter releasing numerous singles\, an EP titled Songs of the Folk\, and their first full-length album\, Sun-Scorched Land\, A.T. and Lauren have released their second LP entitled In the Old Kingdom\, which was recorded in a centuries-old converted barn in Maldon\, Essex and the first Church of England parish chapel\, St. Michael’s in Woodham Walter\, built in the 1500s. \nThe Casons moved back to their mountain home in Western North Carolina where they’ve been featured on NPR’s The Martha Bassett Show\, WDVX Blue Plate Special\, and have performed in loads of house concerts and venues throughout the Southeast. They are also passionate about taking their music to those in distressed situations\, such as at homeless shelters\, rehab centers\, and prisons through their non-profit organization\, For the Folk (www.forthefolknc.org). \nThe Casons are certainly at their best when performing live. Their musical bond is gripping and palpable and as they tell stories alongside the tunes this connection transmits to audiences\, creating a truly engaging experience. A concert of Songs of the Folk is a concert of well-crafted music and lyrics\, pleasant harmonies\, intricate instrumentation\, and original storytelling. Audience members leave impressed by the songwriting and fingerstyle guitar-playing\, entranced by the refined vocal harmonies\, and enamored with the exceptional lyricism\, but most importantly\, each person leaves feeling like an old friend of the Casons and a part of the Songs of the Folk.

DESCRIPTION:Friday\, August 7 / 6:00 – 7:00 PMKnoxville Visitors CenterFREE!\nHosted by Daniel Fluitt\nJoin us for our next First Friday Live presenting Adeem the Artist!Our Maker this week will be Kate Zibas with Illustrate Kate!\nBio:Harvested in the roaming hills of the lower piedmont mountains\, Adeem the Artist shows teeth on “notes from inside.” In short bursts of literary folk songs that draw inspiration from a full library of greater Roots sounds\, Adeem traverses the complexities of pinball\, suicide\, & grand larceny.\nFrenetic & electrifying; the new collection nests at the intersection of stand-up comedy\, social commentary\, and well-seasoned country songs that follow the likes of Tyler Childers in expanding the genre. Their thematic albums and confounding one-person-show invite audiences to lead with curiosity\, & disarm their expectations of the other.\nRecorded in three hours at Pink Moon Studios in Knoxville\, TN & released one week later\, it is brash in its urgency & unflinching in its vulnerability as it reimagines the soundscape of the greater American South.

SUMMARY:Folsom Prison Experience — Live at the Bijou — 8/6
DESCRIPTION:Tickets Here! \nStep inside the gates for a full-throttle\, drama-filled journey back to January 13\, 1968. \nFolsom Prison Experience is a fully immersive theatrical tribute that rebuilds the tension\, grit\, and electricity of the day Johnny Cash recorded At Folsom Prison. A the time\, Cash’s personal life was strained\, the hits had slowed\, and studio sessions were going nowhere. So he took a gamble no one expected by recording a live album inside the maximum-security walls of Folsom Prison. \nWhat sounded like a simple plan unraveled into a day packed with nerves\, tight security\, and behind-the-scenes chaos. But when Cash and the Tennessee Three stepped onstage\, that pressure erupted into one of the most important performances in American music history. \nThis production puts you inside that story. From intake to roll call\, you’ll serve your “sentence” as an inmate and feel the weight of the guards\, the presence of the Warden\, and the energy of a captive audience. \nStarring Jay Ernest of Church of Cash as Johnny Cash\, with powerhouse performances from Kat Perkins\, Brad Erickson\, Dan Hopman\, Ryan Nelson\, Zach “Poppa Bear” Norton\, Bronson Bergeson\, and more\, this cast brings the full lineup of June Carter\, the Statler Brothers\, Carl Perkins\, and the Tennessee Three to life. \nNot to be confused with a tribute show\, Folsom Prison Experience allows you to spend a night inside the most infamous concert ever staged. Get ready for a one-of-a-kind journey through music history.

SUMMARY:An Evening With Patty Griffin — Live at the Bijou — 8/5
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nPatty Griffin is among the most consequential singer-songwriters of her generation\, a quintessentially American artist whose wide-ranging canon incisively explores the intimate moments and universal emotions that bind us together. \nOver two decades\, the 2x GRAMMY® Award winner – and 7x nominee – and Americana Music Association Lifetime Achievement award winner\, has crafted a remarkable body of work in progress that prompted the New York Times to hail her for “[writing] cameo-carved songs that create complete emotional portraits of specific people…[her] songs have independent lives that continue in your head when the music ends.” \n2019 saw the acclaimed release of the renowned artist’s GRAMMY® Award-winning 10th studio recording\, PATTY GRIFFIN. One of the most deeply personal recordings of Griffin’s remarkable two-decade career and first-ever eponymous LP\, PATTY GRIFFIN made a top 5 debut on Billboard’s “Independent Albums” chart amidst unprecedented worldwide acclaim\, and later\, a prestigious GRAMMY® Award for “Best Folk Album.” \nGriffin’s new album\, CROWN OF ROSES\, is a deeply personal and introspective work that explores themes of identity\, nature\, family\, and womanhood. Emerging from a creative drought during the pandemic\, Griffin found herself re-evaluating the stories she’d long told herself. The result is an eight-track collection that is both sparse and emotionally rich\, blending folk\, Americana\, and blues. With CROWN OF ROSES\, Griffin offers a record that’s both grounded and transcendent — one that invites listeners to release old narratives\, embrace new truths\, and stay truly alive while they’re here. Having crafted a rich catalog that chronicles love and death\, heartache and joy\, connection and detachment\, Patty Griffin continues to push her art forward\, as always imbuing every effort with compassion and craft\, uncanny perception\, and ever-increasing ingenuity.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 8/5 — Lone Cricket
DESCRIPTION:Lone Cricket is the musical project of recording artist David Hall\, blending ambient soundscapes with global rhythms and emotionally resonant songwriting. His debut album\, crafted largely in an off-grid studio in the woods\, weaves atmospheric textures with electronic percussion\, cinematic guitar\, and layered instrumentation. Now leaning more into solo guitar and vocals with ambient textures\, his evolving sound draws from Dark Folk\, Americana\, Cumbia\, and the intricacy of West African and Middle Eastern traditions\, and a raw\, expressive guitar style shaped by modern fingerstyle and early 2000s indie. The result is music that moves between introspection and energy—balancing stillness and movement\, memory and immediacy\, in a deeply immersive sonic journey.

SUMMARY:Jerry Garcia Birthday Bash with Cosmic Charlie — Live at the Bijou — 8/1
DESCRIPTION:Tickets Here! \nCelebrate Jerry Garcia’s birthday with 2 sets of high energy Grateful Dead from Cosmic Charlie! This show will feature all Jerry tunes\, all night – from both Grateful Dead & JGB repertoire! \n“Cosmic Charlie really is a great band – these guys do this music the way it should be done: having the conversation in their own voices.”            -David Gans\, Grateful Dead HourCosmic 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.Rather 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.Moving 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.Most 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. “INSPIRATION\, MOVE ME BRIGHTLY” is Cosmic Charlie’s mantra\, allowing the music to truly play the band.

SUMMARY:Graham Nash — Live at the Bijou — 7/29
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets Here! \nNash is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee\, with Crosby\, Stills\, and Nash\, and with the Hollies. He was also inducted twice into the Songwriters’ Hall of Fame\, as a solo artist and with CSN\, and he is a GRAMMY Award winner. \nTowering above virtually everything that Graham Nash has accomplished in his multi-faceted career stands the litany of songs that he has written and introduced to the soundtrack of the past half-century. His remarkable body of work\, beginning with his contributions to the Hollies opus\, including “On a Carousel” and “Carrie Anne\,” continues all the way to Now (2023)\, his most recent solo album. \nThe original classic union of Crosby\, Stills & Nash (& Young) lasted but twenty months.  Yet their songs are lightning rods embedded in our DNA\, starting with Nash’s “Marrakesh Express\,” and “Lady of the Island\,” from the first Crosby\, Stills & Nash LP (1969)\, and “Teach Your Children” and “Our House” on CSNY’s Déjà Vu (1970). \nNash’s solo career debuted with Songs For Beginners (1971)\, which included “Chicago/We Can Change the World” and “Military Madness” and others. In addition to his string of solo albums\, he has performed and recorded with David Crosby as Crosby/Nash. Their eponymously titled Graham Nash/David Crosby (1972) is bookended by Nash’s “Southbound Train” and “Immigration Man”.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 7/29 — Matt Mann
DESCRIPTION:Matt Mann & The Shine Runners are an American rock band residing in Nashville\, TN\, formed by singer/songwriter and Oklahoma native\, Matt Mann.  With influences ranging from the Rolling Stones\, Skynryd\, The Black Crowes\, Social D\, and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers\, Matt Mann & The Shine Runners deliver their brand of raucous and memorable rock and roll music to enthusiastic crowds.  Their bluesy\, boozy\, two guitar rock sounds transports listeners back into the early seventies\, making their music timeless.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Shine Runners include Mann on rhythm guitar\, Johnny Hawthorn/Hunter Wolfe on lead guitar\, Jeff LeGore on bass and Shane Mayo on the drums.  Peter Levin from the Greg Allman Band\, Blind Boys of Alabama and Amanda Shires played B3 organ and upright piano on Anytime But Now and the newest release\, Wrong Side of History. \nThe highly anticipated Wrong Side of History album showcases the band’s signature heavy guitar rock and roll sound across diverse\, well-written tracks\, complemented by memorable drums\, slide guitar\, and keys. Backup singers Angela Primm and Gayle Mayes definitely “take you to church”. The album flows authentically from its powerful opening track to its softer closing song\, leaving listeners wanting to play it all over again. \nAs Mike Shaner from the Hollywood Examiner put it so eloquently\, “Matt Mann and The Shine Runners are just pure whiskey drinking Southern Rock. Crowds eat up Matt Mann’s cowboy-rocker stage presence and raspy Oklahoma twang.”
