Combining equal parts of roots\, country\, folk and a little rock and roll\, Kelsey’s Woods boasts three and four-part male harmonies\, interchangeable lead singers and all original songs speaking on themes from love\, heartbreak\, loss\, murder\, redemption\, and the age old tradition of finding salvation in a whiskey glass. Kelsey’s Woods hopes that you’ll join them in finding a brand new take on a forgotten but yet old and familiar sound.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 9/15 – Matt Axton ( Hoyt’s son! ) / Chuck Prophet & His Cumbia Shoes
DESCRIPTION:Matt Axton is a gifted singer/songwriter. Granted\, that’s a claim made by many artists that inhabit the world of Americana these days\, but in Matt’s case\, it’s more than a mere boast. The ability to make music is firmly infused in his genes\, courtesy of a family history that implanted that ability in him early on. \nWhile he modestly describes his sound as a “humble slice of Americana\,” it’s clear that it possesses so much more. With a style that encompasses country\, folk\, roots\, rock\, R&B\, and pure pop proficiency\, he defies easy categorization. With a rich reservoir of original tunes — over 300 in fact — and three well received albums (Blue Sky Rain\, Matthew C. Axton and Badmoon)\, he’s established himself as a prolific and proficient singer\, songwriter and guitarist\, both on his own and at the helm of his various ensembles. \nEven a small sampling of his musical output proves the point. His current single\, “Blue Sky Rain\,” the title track of his current album\, is both stirring and seductive\, an easy amble that belies its description of the topsy turvy travails that accompany the entanglements of relationships. \n“Born of Chains\,” culled from Badmoon\, is flush with steadfast determination\, a rugged\, relentless bluesy-rocker that conveys clear conviction and a desire to overcome whatever obstacles are tossed in his way. \n \nWake The Dead – California singer\, songwriter\, guitarist\, and producer Chuck Prophet’s new collaborative album with Cumbia group ¿Qiensave? – was released on October 25th through Yep Roc Records. \nAn extraordinary and unlikely pairing\, Prophet and ¿Qiensave? blend seamlessly together as the collection dives headfirst into the world of Cumbia music\, which consumed and comforted Prophet during a recent bout with stage four lymphoma and subsequent recovery. They also shared the album’s lead single and title track “Wake The Dead\,” an anthem that reckons with forces beyond our control while learning to let go\, a recurring theme at the core of the album. \n“I never want to be a downer\,” stated Prophet. “This record doesn’t shy away from darkness\, but it always feels hopeful. When I was growing up listening to The Clash and their flirtations with reggae\, the thing I remember most is how the music hit me\, how it made me feel. The more you listened\, the more was revealed\, but on the most fundamental level\, those records just felt good\, and that was really important to me with this album.” \nProphet’s fascination with Cumbia music began after experiencing a weekly Cumbia night at a local haunt of his in San Francisco’s Mission district. He quickly became obsessed: collecting old vinyl from Latin America\, studying its origins\, DJ’ing\, and loading his friends up with new mixes every time they came to visit. After he was diagnosed\, he had a lot of time to just sit and listen as he went through treatments. “I was going through a tunnel\,” he recalls. “It was dark. But I had music: music to play\, music to listen to\, music to get me out of my head. Music was my savior.” More than any other genre\, Cumbia served as a faithful musical companion and reprieve during his immunotherapy and chemotherapy. \nOnce he was finally feeling better\, Prophet started driving out to Salinas on a regular basis to jam with a group he’d fallen in love with called ¿Qiensave?\, a band of brothers from the Central Coast farming community. The sessions came together on a whim\, for the sheer fun of it at first\, but Prophet soon invited the band to back him up at a couple of live shows\, and the immediate reaction from audiences made it clear they were on to something special. \nProphet and ¿Qiensave? hit the studio soon afterwards\, where they blended with his longtime backing band\, The Mission Express\, to track the heart of Wake The Dead live on the floor. It was chaotic at times\, cramming as many as eight musicians into the same studio space\, but they prioritized gut feeling over sonic perfection and allowed the undeniable energy of the performances to guide them. \nThe result is a profoundly adventurous celebration of life that balances hope and fear in equal measure\, a rich and exultant meditation on what really matters from an artist who always manages to find the light\, even in the face of the most oppressing darkness. Prophet approaches the style not as an academic or historian\, but as a fan with a voracious appetite and an insatiable curiosity. The songs are intoxicatingly rhythmic\, all but demanding you move your body while you listen\, with arrangements that blur the lines between tradition and innovation\, between past and present\, between cultures and countries. There are flashes of rock and roll\, punk\, surf\, and soul\, all filtered through the streets of San Francisco and wrapped up in the rich legacy of a genre that traces its roots back hundreds of years and thousands of miles.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 9/16 – Craig Marshall
DESCRIPTION:Craig Marshall‘s lengthy musical resume stretches back to his teen years performing with various combos in his hometown of Syracuse\, New York. He moved to Austin in the early 1990s with his then-band\, the country-leaning Delta Rays\, but soon found himself founding and leading the locally popular Sinatra-style jazz-swing outfit The Lucky Strikes. \nOver the past two decades\, the Austin\, TX-based singer-songwriter-guitarist has quietly built a remarkably accomplished body of work\, drawing upon his wide-ranging musical background to craft engagingly melodic\, personally-charged music that’s as emotionally resonant as it is catchy. \nCraigs was awarded – “2016 SONGWRITER OF THE YEAR”! \nby the Austin Songwriters Group

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 9/18 – Roger Street Friedman
DESCRIPTION:Roger Street Friedman is still a believer in the idea that music can change hearts and minds. Over the past decade\, and during the course of four critically acclaimed albums\, the modern Americana singer-songwriter has become a prominent voice in addressing issues both societal and personal in ways that recall the leading music lights of the ‘60s and ‘70s. On his newest album\, Long Shadows\, Friedman trains his observant eye on recent and past events\, some close to home and others half a world away\, and in the tradition of other great storytellers\, he focuses on raw emotions – love\, anger\, dismay\, fear\, isolation and ultimately\, hope – in ways that make his points relatable to any listener.

SUMMARY:Summer Sessions - 9/20 - Cruz Contreras & The Black Lillies / Madelyn Tallent / Stoney Point Bluegrass Band ​
DESCRIPTION:Support for WDVX comes from ORNL Federal Credit Union. WDVX and ORNL FCU once again present the Summer Sessions at Bissell Park in Oak Ridge on Saturday September 20th at six featuring Cruz Contreras & The Black Lillies with Madelyn Tallent and the Stoney Point Bluegrass Band. The event is free… bring your lawn chairs and have some fun with The Summer Sessions with ORNL FCU and East Tennessee’s Own WDVX! \nThere are musicians who chase the spotlight\, and then there are those who carry it with them — steady\, quiet\, and burning deep. Cruz Contreras is the latter. Raised between the rugged lines of Tennessee and the long shadows of Michigan\, he’s spent nearly thirty years forging his path through the Americana musical landscape. He got his start at 15\, backing his brother Billy Contreras—now a world-renowned fiddler—and fell in love with music in 1993\, in a quiet room with Bill Monroe. From co-founding Robinella and the CCstringband to leading The Black Lillies\, Cruz carved a sound as old as the hills and as wild as the road. He’s played Conan\, the Opry\, and festivals across the country\, earning praise from Rolling Stone\, NPR\, and Vanity Fair. Now touring behind his solo debut Cosmico\, he continues the journey with Cruz Contreras and The Black Lillies—blending Appalachian roots\, cosmic country\, and rock ’n’ roll. \n \nMadelyn Tallent is a singer/songwriter particularly loving the folk/Americana side of country and some southern rock. \n \nStoney Point Bluegrass Band is a Knoxville-based bluegrass band\, playing all your favorites from classics to new grass renditions! \n \n

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 9/24 – Afriend / Mark Winters
DESCRIPTION:Afriend is the stage name of Adam Ochs\, a singer\, songwriter\, painter and teacher. Adam has lived in Maryville for ten years\, originally from Miamisburg\, Ohio. The songs are about faith\, relationship\, wildlife and art. \n \nTexas-based rock singer-songwriter Mark Winters is many things; a witty poet\, passionate musician\, entrepreneur\, optimist\, family man\, and a bonafide rocket scientist. He first picked up a guitar to play a song for his wife on their anniversary. That’s when he discovered the joy of connecting with people through music. Mark combines music\, poetry\, a science background\, and love for his community to form his signature sound\, “rock with a positive vibe.” \nHis musical roots are in rock\, blues rock\, and pop\, and John Mayer\, Tom Petty\, and Jason Mraz are significant influences. “My music starts from a place of poetry and creative inspiration\, and I use my ‘rocket-scientist brain’ to find structures that help me explore that initial burst of inspiration and feeling – like writing haikus\, my favorite! My grandmother taught me to express myself through poetry and I’m thankful to her for setting me on this creative and expressive path.” \nMark has a degree in Aerospace\, Aeronautical\, and Astronautical Engineering\, and his math and science background guides his musical explorations. He likes taking complex things such as emotions and expressing them in a way that’s easy to understand. Balancing his right-brained creativity with his analytical left-brain is part of a life-long journey; music is one more place where he can explore this balance.

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. \n \nIn a musical world where singer-songwriters are a dime a dozen\, you will find in Jon Whitlock a refreshingly unique sound: a combination of gorgeous original melodies and intellectual\, poignant stories that will surprise you and move you. \nOriginally trained as a drummer\, he was drawn not just to the performance side of drumming\, but even more so to the creative side. Traveling the world as a drummer for touring bands\, the vast experiences of life\, love\, and loss inspired his creative side. Eventually he picked up a guitar\, taught himself to play in a style that made sense to his percussive background\, and started writing songs about what makes us human. What emerged is a beautifully melodic and rhythmic finger-picking guitar sound mixed with poetic\, philosophical\, romantic\, and humorous lyrics. Jon has a knack for understanding the human experience; the words he writes\, his gentle demeanor\, and the style of his playing immediately draw you in and make you want more. Constantly working on new songs\, he has a wealth of original material but also enjoys covering unexpected yet recognizable songs from his favorite artists. \n \nRaised on American Roots music in Eastern Tennessee\, Daniel Kimbro is a multi Grammy-nominated musician with 20 years experience performing alongside luminaries including Eric Clapton\, Jerry Douglas\, John Hiatt\, Transatlantic Sessions\, Sarah Jarosz\, Larkin Poe & many others. \nWhile his collaborations are numerous\, his new solo album Carpet In The Kitchen showcases Daniel’s skills as a songwriter\, composer & arranger. Guests on the album include Jerry Douglas\, Mike Baggetta on electric guitar\, & Jordan Perlson on Drumset. \nKnown to International audiences for his work with the Transatlantic Sessions\, Martin Harley\, Harley Kimbro Lewis\, and many others\, Daniel continues to tour throughout the US\, the UK\, and Canada. \n \nMartin Harley has been making music and touring the world for over two decades. His sound has never been more down to earth. Exploring roots\, blues and slide guitar in a style The Guardian referred to as ‘Spellbinding’\, Harley has released eight albums to date\, four recorded on home soil and four across the Atlantic in Texas and Nashville. \nAn album with Grammy nominated Daniel Kimbro and Sam Lewis is on the way for 2022. The three have collaborated live since 2014. “We’ve all jumped of a few rocks together\, physically and mentally\, this record has got scars\, bars and underwater superheroes” 2021 includes some intimate acoustic shows for Martin with a band tour in the autumn. martinharley.com for tours and tickets. \nHis recent nominations include\, AMA instrumentalist of the year\, Best Acoustic Guitarist\, Best Acoustic Blues artist. Notable appearances include Glastonbury Acoustic and Avalon stages\, Beautiful Days\, Royal Albert Hall\, Union Chapel\, Bluebird Nashville\, Tønder Festival\, The Troubadour LA and at home round the fire pit with his two daughters. \n \nSam Lewis isn’t just a musician. He’s a weaver of tales\, capturing the essence of human experience in every note and lyric. Chris Stapleton calls him “a modern Townes Van Zandt\,” with good reason. Lewis’s voice\, often likened to molasses dripping from a Southern porch\, carries a soulful weight that transcends genre. His music is a gumbo of feel-good grooves and vital social commentary. It is a testament to years spent honing his craft on the red dirt roads of the American Southeast.  Read Sam’s biography to learn more about this soulful storyteller weaving tales of humanity. \n \nTexas Tony & The Tornado Ramblers will be bringing some Honky Tonk Outlaw Country to the show!

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special – 9/30 – Zach Russell
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, thousands of people flock to the city of Nashville with hopes of “making it”. Ironically\, it wasn’t until Zach Russell made the decision to leave Music City\, USA that he inked his first record deal with Thirty Tigers. The drive back home may have only been three hours long\, but Russell’s journey back to old haunts in Eastern Tennessee isn’t quite that cut and dry. \nIn the 7 years preceding that trip down I-40\, there were stints as a manager at a shoe store and a karaoke host. He calloused his hands installing irrigation systems and working as a carpenter. He traveled the US and Europe as Tyler Childers’ merchandise manager and got to witness firsthand what it takes to chase down greatness. Through it all\, one thing that remained constant was his belief that he could chase it down as well. \nMusic has always played a pivotal role in Russell’s life. A background in Baptist and Hymnal music as a youth and a taste for hip-hop\, rock\, and country music informed his musical style between 2016 and 2020 as he found his footing. In 2021 the world received its proper introduction to Zach Russell as a fully formed artist with the release The Creek. This five-song EP proved not only to be a landmark release in Russell’s career\, but with its lyrical depth\, soaring instrumental jams and infectious melodies\, it served as proof that this landmark was merely the first of many to come. \nSince moving home and finding clarity\, the past 18 months have been busy for Russell. He spent those months writing music\, touring with The Alex Leach Band\, and delivering a guest appearance on Adeem the Artist critically acclaimed album\, White Trash Revelry. That wave of momentum has culminated to this moment\, and the release of his highly anticipated full-length debut\, Where the Flowers Meet the Dew. \nOnce again joining forces with up-and-coming producer Kyle Crownover (Adeem the Artist)\, this ten-song effort never takes its foot off the gas pedal. Dominant themes of wrestling with mortality\, pondering reincarnation\, and finding that ever elusive feeling of contentment in this life weave gracefully through. \nAs the old saying goes\, “Big hitters take big swings.”\, and Russell’s choice as the first single is as bold a statement as can be made. Coming in at a shade over seven minutes long\, “Born Again” begins as a rockabilly banger\, then midway through\, via a psychedelic segue it morphs into a funky\, groove heavy jam. Russell sings of reincarnation and hints that perhaps every waking moment is\, in fact\, an opportunity to start anew. \nThe first half of the record is filled with traditional waltzes (“I Thought I Was the Trees”\, “Take Me Back to Tennessee”)\, haunting electric folk (“What You Want Comes to You”)\, and 60’s R&B style (“Milk & Honey”) cuts. Its deep\, mellow\, and the lyrics are contemplative. It draws you in while not letting the listener get too comfortable. \nBeginning with the aforementioned rip-roaring lead single\, the back half of the record brings with it an altogether different vibe. Greasy\, distorted guitar licks pepper the back half of Where the Flowers Meet the Dew. “Playing House” fully displays his creative dexterity\, and would be right at home on a post-grunge rock radio station\, circa 1998\, sandwiched between Matchbox 20 and Third Eye Blind numbers. Later\, on “Nothin’ to Haul”\, he boldly calls out the posers and wannabes that fill the Nashville scene.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Big Plate – 10/3 – Cole Chaney
DESCRIPTION:When it comes to his latest album\, In the Shadow of the Mountain\, 25-year-old singer-songwriter Cole Chaney is pretty candid and blunt about who he is and what kind of music he wants to make — the result of which\, this stunning offering from an artist wise beyond his age. \n“There’s a yin to every yang\,” Chaney says. “I want nothing more than for people to be creatively fulfilled\, and to do what they want. But\, for me to preach that? I have to practice it.” \nThat attitude resides at the core of the record\, where the trajectory of the songs seemingly — more so purposely — shoot off in the opposite direction of many of his contemporaries in the Americana\, country and folk music scenes. In truth? Chaney is summoning his rock roots. \n“I’m not concerned with being labeled as ‘country’.“There’s not a lot of music being released right now that is doing anything for me. I made something that I would want to listen to.” \nPointing to his lifelong admiration for 1990s rock — specifically Soundgarden\, Alice in Chains and Stone Temple Pilots — as a vital influence on the sonic landscape of the album\, Chaney aimed to find a melodic balance between that raw and real rock sound and the bluegrass and folk music of his native Kentucky. \n“I wanted to make something that sounded like Ralph Stanley went in and got backed up by Soundgarden\,” Chaney jokes. “I write what I listen to. And whatever I listen to is going to come out in my music.” \nIn the Shadow of the Mountain was captured by famed producer Duane Lundy at his legendary studio in Lexington\, Kentucky. While talking at-length about the possible collaboration\, Lundy spoke of his love for Soundgarden\, Alice in Chains and Stone Temple Pilots. \n“I know plenty of bluegrass guys that could have recorded this for me\,” Chaney says. “But\, I wanted to take that string band and folk sound and bring it to a rock producer\, to bring that big sound out of these acoustic instruments — [Duane] was about to do that.” \nThe album was also co-produced by guitarist Zachary Hamilton\, a close friend of Chaney\, who is also the brother and bandmate of rising Lexington singer-songwriter Abby Hamilton. \n“[Zach] has that ability to fill a room with his guitar\, his voicings\, and all the choices he goes for down the neck of the guitar\,” Chaney says. “When Abby was opening for us\, I got to sit there and watch him play every night. I knew when I was going to do another album\, he needed to be involved in some capacity.” \nHeading into the recording sessions\, Chaney brought along his band\, which included Ella Webster (fiddle)\, Kyle Kleinman (mandolin)\, Joel Murtaugh (upright bass) and James Gooding (drums). Acclaimed Kentucky musician (and former bandmate) Aaron Bibelhauser also makes an appearance. \nWith this pivot in his tone and intent compared to his 2021 debut album\, Mercy\, Chaney sees this current path as more in-tune with what he’s not only wanted to do all along\, but has slowly shifted towards in recent years amid endless touring and performing. \n“I was green [while recording Mercy]. I didn’t really know what I was doing\,” Chaney admits. “And\, by the grace of so many people around me\, we were able to get some really great string band music on [that album].” \nSince Mercy\, Chaney has added a full drum kit to his band and live show\, something that was done to enhance his sound and stage presence — this thunderous beat to accompany the sorrowful songs. \n“If I have drums\, then we’re going to do it all the way\,” Chaney says. “And that unlocked some capabilities for me as a writer to pursue a sound that I don’t think I’ve heard yet.” \nAs of late\, Chaney has returned to his hometown of Catlettsburg\, Kentucky (population: 1\,780). The tiny Appalachian community lies along the shores of the Ohio and Big Sandy rivers\, at the crossroads of the borders of West Virginia\, Ohio and The Bluegrass State. \n“I think where I’m from shows through in everything that I do\,” Chaney says. “And if you want to write songs where that is going to come through\, then I feel I need to be around my roots.” \nFor Chaney\, even though he’s only in his mid-twenties\, his journey has been long and bountiful already. From growing up in rural Appalachia to going to welding school\, only to leave it behind and take a leap of faith when an opportunity to pursue music emerged. \nThat life-changing decision led to Chaney hitting the road and finding work at The Burl\, a storied Lexington music venue. Chaney has come full circle with The Burl\, by selling out the space on multiple occasions to fervent crowds\, including the large outdoor stage. \nWith In the Shadow of the Mountain being the latest milestone for Chaney\, what remains is this driven musician in search of not only himself and his sound\, but also an audience just as hungry — for something new\, something different\, and yet something so familiar. \n“In a lot of ways\, things have gone extremely far. And yet\, so many things have remained the same\,” Chaney reflects. “And that’s been the beauty of the journey.”

SUMMARY:Scruffy Roots Fest - 10/4 - Vaden Landers\, Wyatt Ellis & a Tom Petty Tribute from The Deep Fakes
DESCRIPTION:Kerns Food Hall presents the first-ever Scruffy Roots Fest Saturday evening October 4th at five p.m. on the big stage outdoors with live music from Vaden Landers\, Wyatt Ellis and a Tom Petty Tribute from The Deep Fakes. 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

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special - 10/6 - Pete Denahy
DESCRIPTION:Pete Denahy knew when he was 11 years old he wanted to be a country singer. He taught himself guitar\, started writing songs and at 13 years old saw Slim Dusty in concert for the first time. Twelve years later he was in Slim’s band playing fiddle and doing a comedy spot on the show.\nWhile he has written some ridiculous comedy songs\, he is no stranger to writing a heart wrencher\, but he is fully aware that his songs about insects and toilet paper hold special places in the hearts of his fans.\nHis latest record “She Loves Me To The Moon” is not a comedy release but a traditional country album featuring his own fiddle playing\, twangy guitars and wailing pedal steel. Produced by Simon Johnson at Hillbilly Hut Studio\, it includes fine playing by some of Australia’s best and a collection of new tracks penned with help from the Wolfe Brothers\, Mike Carr\, Bill Whyte and Evan Murphy.\nPete is a five time Golden Guitar winner and is very happy to have won three of those for his fiddle playing – an instrument that has kept him in work for many years. As well as working as a side man and guest artist for Slim\, he has done the same for Sara Storer\, Troy Cassar-Daley and Lee Kernaghan.\nPete takes two trips a year to Japan with Australian music fans to explore the bluegrass and country scene there.

SUMMARY:WDVX Summer Nights - 10/8 - Mic Harrison and the High Score / Trisha Gene Brady
DESCRIPTION:I’d rather see Mic Harrison and the High Score perform than just about any band on the planet. \nThat’s not just because Mic and the guys have a couple of road cases full of great songs or they’re journeyman musicians who’ve been a part of some of the best bands to come out of the South. It’s because every time I go to a Mic Harrison and the High Score show\, I know I’m going to walk in and see guys who look like they’re having so much fun on stage that it can’t help but spill out into the audience. I know I’m going to walk out at the end the night feeling better about the world with great rock ‘n’ roll and honky tonk songs playing over and over in my head. \nLead singer and rhythm guitarist Mic Harrison\, lead guitarist Robbie Trosper\, bassist Vance Hillard\, guitarist Kevin Abernathy and drummer Don Coffey\, Jr.\, have a chemistry that can only come from long term friendships and shared experiences. Harrison\, who started his young adulthood working in a saw mill in Bradford\, Tenn.\, a town so small it barely shows up on the map between Memphis and Jackson. He moved to Knoxville in the 1990s to become co-lead singer-songwriter (with Scott Miller) in The V-Roys\, a band that defined “Americana” before it was genre. After that group split\, he teamed with Trosper in the short-lived favorites The Faults and\, later\, teamed with Coffey in the now legendary power pop act Superdrag. When Superdrag ended\, Harrison enlisted established Knoxville rock act The High Score to back up a tour and the chemistry was so good that the partnership never ended. \nIn the past 12 years or so\, Mic and the guys have traveled the country\, performing at festivals from Bonnaroo to Easyriders Rodeos\, headlining bills from concert halls to the stickiest bars\, opening shows for everyone from Billy Joe Shaver to Huey Lewis and the News to ZZ Top\, and recording a terrific single with classic country singer Con Hunley. \nI’ve been lucky enough to experience Mic Harrison and the High Score perform about 50 times. I expect to see them at least 50 more. In the world today\, you need something that’s guaranteed to make you feel good that won’t hurt you – aside from a little soreness from swaying and dancing. \nI consider Mic Harrison and the High Score mental health food. \n– Wayne Bledsoe \n \nWith her former band TGB followed a rigorous road schedule and had many adventures!! Trisha Gene Brady is a roots musician from Knoxville\, TN known best for her seven year run as the female vocalist (guitar\, mandolin\, percussion) of the nationally touring act\, The Black Lillies. Her split from the well known Americana outfit seems to be an open door to the next step in her career.\nShe has been featured in publications including Rolling Stone\, Vanity Fair\, Billboard\, Wall Street Journal\, Consequence of Sound\, Garden & Gun\, Huffington Post\, Relix Magazine\, USA Today\, PASTE Magazine\, No Depression & Country Weekly\, NPR’s Mountain Stage (twice) and five separate PBS concert specials\, a GAC featurette\, Texas Music Scene and a CMT television episode airing nationally.\nTrisha Gene is one of the only independent artists invited to play the Grand Ole Opry more than thirty times (debuted June\, 2011).\nShe has performed at festivals including Bonnaroo Music + Arts\, SXSW\, Americana Music Association’s Americana Fest\, 30-A Songwriter’s Festival\, Country Music Association’s CMA Festival & Fan Fair\, Rochester International Jazz Festival\, Pickathon\, Strawberry Music Festival\, Four Corners Folk Festival\, MerleFest\, Old Settler’s Festival\, The Luck Reunion\, and more.
