Song “All for You” topped the adult alternative charts during the summer of 1997 and the success propelled their album to platinum status. \nIn their first showing on the country music charts they made a strong debut with “Lighter In The Dark” at #4 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart\, #6 on Billboard’s Independent Albums chart\, #30 on Billboard’s Top Current Albums chart. \nThe band landed on Billboard’s Top Country Albums Chart again in 2018 and 2019 with Volumes I\, II\, III\, and IV of a clever EP compilation series titled “Elements.”   In February 2018\, “Water\,” landed on the Billboard Country Albums chart at #9 and at #2 on Billboard’s Independent Albums chart along with making their debut on the most revered stage in country music\, the Grand Ole Opry. In September of 2018\, “Wind” landed at #1 on iTunes country page and #11 on Billboard’s Independent Albums chart. In February 2019\, Vol. III “Fire” landed at #5 on Billboard’s Independent Albums chart and #46 Billboard’s Top Country Albums Chart. The collectible compilation series ended with “Earth” which again landed at on the charts at #15 on Billboard’s Americana/Folk Album chart. \nLiving up to their fan-centered reputation\, the band hosts annual events like “Hazelnut Hang\,” that focuses on fan involvement and was a pioneer in themed cruise experiences by co-founding “The Rock Boat\,” a cruise featuring nonstop opportunities for fan/artist interaction. Sister Hazel has been equally attentive to connecting with their audience through social media. They have since made their Grand Ole Opry debut and shared the stages with country music superstars at The ​CMA Festival\, Tortuga Music Festival\, among others. In addition to the events and touring\, the band also gives back with “Lyrics For Life.” Founded by singer Ken Block and the Band\, the charity unites musicians and celebrities for concerts and auctions to benefit cancer research and patient-care charities.

SUMMARY:Bristol Sessions Nights
DESCRIPTION:BRISTOL\, Tenn. – Organizers of Bristol Sessions Nights: Road to 100 announced today that tickets for the yearlong cultural series celebrating the 100th anniversary of the 1927 Bristol Sessions will now cost $27 per event\, a move designed to make the experience accessible to a wider audience as Bristol prepares for one of the most significant milestones in American music history. \n\nThe reduced ticket price is made possible through support from cornerstone sponsors including Tennessee Hills Distillery\, the Tennessee Entertainment Commission\, and additional regional partners committed to expanding access to the series while preserving its intentionally intimate format. Attendance for each event will remain capped at 100 guests. \n\nA full-series passport covering all twelve events is now available for $300. \n\nBeginning May 22\, 2026\, and continuing through April 2027\, Bristol Sessions Nights: Road to 100 will guide audiences through the music\, stories\, and cultural legacy born from the 1927 Bristol Sessions\, recognized by the U.S. Congress as the single most important event in the history of country music. Those original sessions launched the careers of The Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers and helped shape a genre that continues to influence American culture nearly a century later. \n\n“Today\, Tennessee’s music industry is a globally recognized brand generating billons annually to the state’s economy\,” said Tennessee Entertainment Commission Executive Director Bob Raines. “The Tennessee Entertainment Commission is honored to be supporting the Bristol Sessions Nights series and lead up to the 100th year celebration of the big bang of country music.” \n\nHosted inside the historic L.C.

Come early for shopping and dining\, stay for the unforgettable music experience\, and stick around after to experience everything our downtown has to offer.” \n\nThe twelve-night series unfolds in three acts\, each exploring a different chapter in the evolution and impact of the Bristol Sessions: \n\nAct I: The Recordings (May–July 2026) – Immersive origin stories revisiting 1927 and the birth of country music.\nAct II: The Evolution (August–December 2026) – How Bristol’s spark shaped bluegrass\, songwriting\, and mountain music traditions across a century.\nAct III: The Road to 100 (January–April 2027) – Rising energy\, new voices\, and expanded programming leading into the centennial.\n\n\nThe journey culminates in May 2027 with the inaugural Bristol Sessions Festival\, a Memorial Day Weekend celebration commemorating 100 years since the recordings that changed music forever. \n\nThe full schedule of nights is as follows: \n\n\n\n\nNight\n\nDate\n\nTitle\n\nTheme\n\n\n\n1\n\nMay 22\, 2026\n\nThe First Take\n\nSeries Kickoff / Songwriter Round\n\n\n\n2\n\nJun 19\, 2026\n\nThe Carter Sessions\n\nCarter Family Legacy\n\n\n\n3\n\nJul 17\, 2026\n\nThe Blue Yodel\n\nJimmie Rodgers & Early Roots\n\n\n\n4\n\nAug 21\, 2026\n\nA True Taste of Tennessee\n\nFull Sensory Journey of Local Music\, Food/Spirits Pairings\n\n\n\n5\n\nSep 18\, 2026\n\nMountain Songs\n\nAppalachian Roots Showcase\n\n\n\n6\n\nOct 16\, 2026\n\nThe Pickers\n\nBluegrass & Instrumental Virtuosity\n\n\n\n7\n\nNov 20\, 2026\n\nHer Song\n\nWomen of Country Music\n\n\n\n8\n\nDec 18\, 2026\n\nThe Holiday Sessions\n\nAcoustic Holiday Heritage\n\n\n\n9\n\nJan 15\, 2027\n\nNew Voices\n\nNext-Generation Tennessee Songwriters\n\n\n\n10\n\nFeb 19\, 2027\n\nOutlaws & Renegades\n\nOutlaw & Modern Country\n\n\n\n11\n\nMar 19\, 2027\n\nThe Echoes\n\nBristol’s Lasting Impact\n\n\n\n12\n\nApr 16\, 2027\n\nThe Gathering\n\nPre-Finale Celebration\n\n\n\n★\n\nMay 28-29\, 2027\n\nThe 100th Session\n\nCentennial Festival / Grand Finale\n\n\n\n\n  \nAdditional details\, including ticket information\, are available at bristolsessionsfestival.com. \n  \nAbout Bristol Sessions Nights: Road to 100 \nBristol Sessions Nights: Road to 100 is a 12-night cultural series produced by the City of Bristol\, Tennessee in partnership with the ETSU Appalachian Music Collective\, the ETSU Department of Appalachian Studies\, and Tennessee Hills Distillery.
