SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special - 7/10 - Dayes / Will Wesley & Florian Fox
DESCRIPTION:Teaching the periodic table by day\, crafting feel good indie folk songs by night. Patrick Morelli started the indie folk project known as “dayes” in 2022 in Boston\, MA. dayes is inspired by Morelli’s love for alternative rock bands like Dispatch and Mt. Joy combined with his love for folk artists such as Caamp\, The Lumineers\, and Chadwick Stokes. The hope of this project is to remind the listeners that we’re all in this together. dayes debut album comes out this summer\, June 2025. Thank you all for being here and supporting the music! \n \nGrit has forever seeped from the pores of country rocker Will Wesley\, a grit that has materialized as life has punched him from every angle\, often forcing the kid from Louisiana to take his anger out on the strings of his beat-up guitar. \nBorn in the picturesque town of Baker\, Louisiana\, Wesley was born with a rebellious spirit. He never loved playing by the rules and didn’t particularly like the word ‘no.’. In fact\, the word alone would drive him to do the exact opposite of what everyone wanted him to do. \nHe started sneaking into bars at the age of 15\, often using his beard to fool everyone to think he belonged there. But once he stepped on stage with the beat-up guitar his dad inspired him to play\, everyone went and ignored the fact that he legally wasn’t supposed to be there. \nHe was that good. \nFrom the start\, Wesley was drawn to the sorrowful sounds of the blues\, and his natural talents within the genre began to speak loudly. Originally planting his boots into the dirt of the Baton Rouge blues scene\, the musical rebel began touring behind the likes of legends such as Larry Garner\, Tabby Thomas\, and Grady Champion. At the same time\, he began racking up the accolades\, and won the New Orleans regional division of the International Blues Challenge not once…but twice. \nWesley also went and served as the Music Director for Grammy-winning Blues Artist Grady Champion for 5 years\, and for a time\, it was as if the road in which he would build a life on was being paved for him. \nBut at a time when Wesley should have felt his most content\, he found himself at a crossroads\, both personally and professionally. Being torn from every angle eventually resulted in Wesley falling into a dark depression that had him contemplating the unthinkable. But it was this pain that needed an outlet\, an outlet that he eventually found most easily captured within the country music genre. \nBecause the fact was this – he was about much more than just blues. \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caiMQJaxjUE \nFlorian Fox is the “Swiss guy of the hour”. With his neo-traditional country style\, Florian Fox (32) has played his way onto some of the most renowned festival and club stages and into the heart of the US music metropolis of Nashville in less than four years. \nHis new country-pop EP “True Love”\, released on February 14\, 2025\, accompanies him on his “True Love Tour” alongside U.S. artist Drake Milligan. Florian will kicked off the year with his single “Home” published on January 24\, 2025. \nFlorian Fox is 2024 Texas Sounds International Country Music Award “Entertainer of the Year” and a voting member of the Country Music Association (CMA) in Nashville TN. He has been nominated for the prestigious Swiss cultural award “Prix Walo” in the category Country on May 24\, 2025 (live broadcast on national television SRF 1 starting at 8.00 pm CET).

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special - 6/28 - Evie Andrus / The Bourbon Man
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.” \n \nThe Bourbon Man is a one man band from Belarus. Rised from the ash of WhiskeyJamBand The Bourbon Man plays his dirthy blues on cigar box guitar and bass drum\, screaming vocals and other strange stuff.

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special - 6/25 - Robinella
DESCRIPTION:Robinella’s career began with a sort of luck that rarely comes to most artists within their lifetime. What started out as a simple husband-and-wife duo fresh out of college quickly grew to a full-fledged band that blended Bluegrass\, Country and Jazz. The combination of Robinella’s honey-sweet vocals with violin\, mandolin\, bass\, drums and piano captivated audiences\, thus creating the ever popular Robinella & the CC Stringband. \nThey released their first album\, self-titled Robinella and The CC Stringband\, in 2000\, which quickly followed\, No Saint\, No Prize in 2001. Both were on the independent label Big Gulley Records. With a few simple twists of fate\, what followed was a whirlwind of rapid success – Columbia Records liked what they heard and signed Robinella in 2002. The label took seven songs from the band’s two prior albums and released them as the CD Blanket for My Soul and then released a full album in 2003\, Robinella and the CC Stringband. This led to a national tour including opening for such artists as Bob Dylan\, Willie Nelson\, Earl Scruggs\, Nickel Creek\, Robert Earl Keen\, Kasey Chambers\, Del McCoury and Rodney Crowell as well as an appearance on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” and a music video on CMT for their hit single\, “Man Over”. She also performed on NPR’s “Mountain Stage\,” appeared on the Grand Ole Opry and performed on PBS’s “SoundStage.” In 2006\, Robinella was nominated for “Emerging Artist of the Year” at the Americana Music Awards and released her fourth album\, “Solace for the Lonely”\, on Dualtone Records in Nashville. \nBut then life\, as it has a tendency to do\, threw a few curveballs her way. She became a mom and a couple of years later\, she and her husband/musical partner split up with a new record almost completed. Exhausted and somewhat disillusioned with the industry and its promises\, it was time to regroup\, redefine and get back to her roots. So she returned to her home\, the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains\, and got back in touch with what she truly wanted – love\, family\, friendship\, music\, art\, truth. \nWith that comes her latest release\, “Fly Away Bird”\, her most mature work. However\, within the melancholy and touches of sadness there is not true despair. For such a voice — that dazzling\, warm\, bright-as-summer-sunshine soprano — to even communicate it would most likely defy certain laws of emotional physics. No\, instead\, this album\, beneath the disappointments\, she is brimming with optimism — with hope. You can feel it\, and even more important than that\, you believe — because she believes\, and because her music is so honest and so genuine and so forthright that you just can’t help but knowing that this is an artist who still finds life to be magical. \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVY6pjpvFuk

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special - 6/14 - Trey Bryant / Kirsty Lee Akers & Rhinestoned
DESCRIPTION:Hailing from Williamsburg\, KY\, Trey Bryant is a country music artist with roots that run deep in the hills of Appalachia. His songwriting is full of rich imagery that makes listeners feel the emotions behind the lyrics. \nTrey continues to bring an unforgettable live show to coveted stages across the southeast and has provided opening performances rising stars Dillon Carmichael and Walker Montgomery as well as for country stars such as Phil Vassar and Sawyer Brown. \nTrey’s accolades include 3 nominations for the 2025 Lexington Music Awards for Male Vocalist of the Year\, Country Artist of the Year\, and Song of the Year for his single\, “Make It To Nashville” and a nomination for the 2025 Josie Music Awards for Male Vocalist of the Year – Country. \n \nKirsty Lee Akers is one of Australia’s most unique and authentic recording artists. A rare talent who is proud of her First Nations heritage\, she is a Wonnarua woman (Hunter Valley – Australia). Akers has embraced a global musical culture and now spends her time between Australia and a hard-earned international touring schedule in North America and Europe. Although she spends time overseas during the year\, Australia will always be her spiritual home. “Music and family have always been the most important parts of my life. My Nan\, Mum\, and Aunt were all singers\, and I grew up with my pop playing country music all the time. I still remember my first performance at age three. I was hooked!” – Kirsty Lee Akers \nKirsty’s childhood was far from easy\, and her family could be described as “Aussie Battlers”. Born when her mother was only 17 years old\, she quickly learned the importance of teamwork\, love\, and family connection. Akers was not born into money\, one of four children growing up in a small house\, she saw her father work two jobs to get by. Kirsty learned early on that if she wanted something\, she was going to have to earn it. These are traits that to this day are extremely important to her and help her connect with her fans on an honest and personal level. Akers performed in public for the first time at the tender age of three years old and recorded her first EP at the age of 15. She funded that recording with the money she made busking tirelessly on the streets of Tamworth each January. This connection with Australia’s Country Music Capital lead Kirsty to graduate from the CMAA Academy of Country Music and then further afield through the Talent Development Project. After these achievements\, it was time to spread her wings and explore the world – First stop Nashville. “That trip to Nashville in 2006 was just like my first trip to Tamworth\, and from the time I stepped off the plane I was in love! There is just something magical about that city. Music everywhere\, dreams everywhere\, it is so inspiring. But as much as I love traveling\, Australia always calls me home.” – Kirsty Lee Akers \n \n

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special - 6/7 - Brandon Maddox / Conner Brooke
DESCRIPTION:From sharing the stage with superstar\, Brett Eldredge\, as well as acclaimed performances in casinos\, clubs\, and festivals to having original songs featured in movies and appearing on TV and radio shows\, Brandon Maddox\, has quickly established himself as one of Country Music’s rising stars. He was named\, “Monster Truck Artist of the Year” and was both a Josie Award recipient in 2017 for his hit single “Dixie Chaser” as well as the winner of “Song of the Year” in 2019 for his song “Drive Me to Drink.” \nBrandon’s dad schooled him in classic rock\, so it was only natural that when the youngster picked up the guitar and taught himself to play\, he used a Beatle’s songbook.

Brandon wrote his first song at the tender age of 11 and now has an original catalog of over a thousand songs\, a few of which have won awards. After college Brandon moved to Nashville from his hometown near Chattanooga\, TN to pursue his songwriting passion. \nhttps://youtu.be/fM4SnucrOxQ?si=v7Ai4nhFPSjKQOQy \nConner Brooke will also join us this day! \nhttps://youtu.be/SBZjHjiYO5g?si=aO9vRXiFavOKuO1W

Noah splits his time between his home studio\, Nashville\, Tennessee\, and the road. He has gained a following in the US and Europe as a featured artist on the Nashville Nights International Songwriter Festival in Odense\, Denmark\, where he will return for a third appearance in 2025. Noah is a staple in the Cincinnati songwriter community\, and has fostered relationships with over 300 songwriters and artists on his monthly songwriter showcase “Noah Smith’s Crooner Circus\,” for over 5 years. Noah has a growing fan base and is releasing new music to pair with his past releases featured in American Songwriter\, Country Rebel\, Raised Rowdy and more. \n \nCiarra Fragale is an indie pop singer/songwriter\, producer\, and actor from NY’s Hudson Valley. By blending the nostalgic traditions of songwriting with unique new-wave sensibilities\, she creates a refreshing sound all her own. In addition to making her own music\, Ciarra has also composed many works for theater and film. \nIn 2017\, Ciarra released her first full-length “Seasons\,” written and recorded entirely in her home. It was during this recording process that she started to experiment with different sounds and textures\, igniting her love for production. After two more years of touring and recording\, Ciarra followed up “Seasons” with her second full-length “Call It What You Will” in 2019. Shedding the nu-folk sound for more of an Indie/alt pop direction\, “Call It What You Will” was an ambitious project that artfully portrayed Ciarra’s growth as an artist. Produced by Fragale\, the album was recorded at Nashphone Recording\, a studio owned and operated by engineer Jesse Bolduc (of the band Candy Ambulance )
