SUMMARY:Tab Benoit with Paul Thorn
DESCRIPTION:Paramount Bristol Presents\n\n\n\nTab Benoit with Paul Thorn\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSun\, March 1\, 2026\n\n\nDoors: 6:30 pm / Show: 7:30 pm\n\n\n$34.53 – $91.50 (prices include all applicable fees and taxes) / Members save at least $5 per ticket\n\nBUY TICKETS\n\n\nTAB BENOIT \nTab Benoit is a 4x Grammy nominated singer\, songwriter and guitarist who has built a remarkable 30+ year career on the foundation of his gritty and soulful Delta swamp blues\, acquiring a devoted legion of fans along the way\, as well as 5 Blues Music Awards\, including BB King Entertainer of the Year (twice) and an induction into The Louisiana Music Hall of Fame. \nPAUL THORN \nWhen it comes to songwriting\, less is more\, and simplicity is strength. Just ask Paul Thorn\, who’s spent three decades turning soulful grooves and small syllables into songs that pack a big wallop. Maybe he learned the power of minimalism from his years as a pro boxer; maybe it just comes naturally. But whether he’s targeting heads\, hearts\, hips or the occasional funny bone\, he somehow manages to condense large nuggets of wisdom into tight little mantras\, the kind embroiderers stitched onto pillows before internet memes existed. \nOur Box Office opens 2 hours before showtime.

SUMMARY:Paramount Bristol: Larry Fleet
DESCRIPTION:Paramount Bristol Presents\n\n\n\nLarry Fleet – Another Year Older 2026 Tour\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFri\, March 13\, 2026\n\n\nDoors: 6:30 pm / Show: 7:30 pm\n\n\n$40.04 – $102.50 (prices include all applicable fees and taxes ) / Members save at least $5 per ticket\n\nBUY TICKETS\n\n\nTennessee-born troubadour Larry Fleet grew up on a stack of records that spun everything from Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson to Otis Redding and Marvin Gaye. That mix shaped a sound rooted in country storytelling but unafraid to reach beyond its borders. A thoughtful songwriter with a knack for sharp one-liners\, sturdy hooks\, and a powerhouse voice that cuts straight to the truth\, Fleet was working blue-collar jobs long before ever landing a record deal. A devout family man and respected songwriter (including co-writing “Man Made A Bar\,” recorded by Morgan Wallen featuring Eric Church)\, Fleet has built an impressive catalog: 2019’s aptly titled Workin’ Hard\, 2021’s Stack of Records—a nod to the music that raised him—2023’s Earned It with the standout “Things I Take for Granted\,” and now 2025’s independently released Hard Work & Holy Water. Fleet is doing things his own way—touring globally\, connecting with fans\, and staying true to where he’s from while taking country music somewhere new. \nWith Special Guest:

SUMMARY:Sounds of Simon and Garfunkel
DESCRIPTION:Date & Time \n\n\nSat\, Mar 14\, 2026\n7:00 PM – 9:00 PM EDT \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation \n\n\n\nAppalachian Auditorium at St. James \n3220 Saint James Road \nGreeneville\, TN 37743 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDescription \n\n\n\n\n\n\nJeff Jablonski and Jeff Radi met through their involvement with a nationally touring CSN tribute show. They discovered that they had more in common than their first name; both harbored a mutual passion for the music of the early years of rock and roll\, specifically the folk music era. They grew up in the age when rock was new\, the generation that spawned geniuses such as Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. Little did they know\, that honing their musical craft at an early age\, would plant seeds of who they would become. Jablonski and Radi experienced an intrinsic bond when they met. Their amazing ability to harmonize and recreate the sounds of music from a bygone era\, is profoundly synchronistic. Their harmonious personalities lend a magical touch to the emotional lyrics and timeless rhythm of their passionate tribute show\, Sounds of Simon and Garfunkel.

Class size is limited to 15 people and recommended for ages 16 and up; registration fee is $37.47 including all taxes\, fees and materials. The class occurs in two sessions to finish the project. \nLed by dulcimer player and instructor Roxanne McDaniel\, participants will have the opportunity to build their own dulcimer from cardboard using simple tools. Introduced in the early 19th century by Scots-Irish immigrants\, the dulcimer has a prominent history in Appalachian music. Participants in the workshop will learn more about that history and the importance of keeping this uniquely Appalachian instrument relevant for younger generations. The dulcimer is also among the most accessible of stringed instruments\, making it especially suitable for beginners. This is the perfect opportunity for anyone who wants to learn an instrument\, from experienced musicians to complete beginners. The workshop will also introduce participants to a number of simple playing techniques and beginner-friendly dulcimer tunes. \nRoxanne is based in Johnson City and is a graduate of East Tennessee State University’s Bluegrass\, Old-Time\, and Roots Music Studies program. She has a passion for the dulcimer and for teaching others about its importance in Appalachian culture. McDaniel leads classes\, hosts dulcimer workshops\, and incorporates the instrument heavily in her own music. She is also a Radio Bristol DJ\, hosting her show Outside the Box on Thursdays at 2 p.m. \nSpecial thanks to Berea Appalachian Fund’s Folk Arts & Cultures Initiative for support of this project.

SUMMARY:Kenny Wayne Shepherd
DESCRIPTION:Paramount Bristol Presents\n\n\n\nKenny Wayne Shepherd – Ledbetter Heights 30th Anniversary Tour\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSat\, October 10\, 2026\n\n\nDoors: 6:30 pm / Show: 7:30 pm\n\n\n$56.54 – $154 (prices include all applicable fees and taxes ) / Members save at least $5 per ticket\n\nBUY TICKETS\n\n\nPut an ear to the door of FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals\, Alabama\, back in late 2019 and you’d have heard it. The first stirrings of a new studio album from the man who pulled American roots into the 21st century. Melodies forming\, riffs taking shape\, grooves building\, stories of loss and redemption spun by a crack team of sympatico songwriters. The road from that first writing session to the finished copy of Dirt On My Diamonds you hold in your hands\, smiles Kenny Wayne Shepherd\, has been quite a ride. “Every record I make is a moment in time. And this is a really special moment.” \nSince the release of his debut album\, 1995’s Ledbetter Heights\, this Grammy-nominated\, multi-platinum bandleader still sounds like the future of the blues. Approach Dirt On My Diamonds expecting autopilot twelve-bars and you’ll instead be thrown a volley of curveballs\, from the modern urban edge of Sweet & Low and Best Of Times’ socio-political observations to the speaker-tearing production from Shepherd and his partner-in-sound of recent years\, Marshall Altman. “Working with Marshall\, it’s like any productive relationship\,” considers the guitarist. “We put our strengths together and push each other.” \nThroughout\, as the album title suggests\, the grit and emotional honesty of these new songs is prized above guitar pyrotechnics (even for one of the modern scene’s most valuable players). Of the Dirt On My Diamonds’ guiding philosophy\, “Life has imperfections\, and I actually prefer it that way. The imperfections are what make it interesting.” \nDoors open at 6:30 pm. Our Box Office opens 2 hours before showtime. For shows not already sold out\, tickets will be available at the door on the day of show for an additional cost of $5 (+tax and service fee). BUYER BEWARE! Third party tickets (StubHub\, eTix\, VividSeats\, etc.) will NOT be honored. Tickets are available via paramountbristol.org or our Box Office ONLY.  All sales are final. Refunds and exchanges are not permitted.  Outside food and drinks are not allowed.

SUMMARY:Songwriters Circle SHOWCASE
DESCRIPTION:Songwriters Circle SHOWCASE\n\nApril 11 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm\nFree\n\n\n\n2026 Songwriters Circle Showcases\n\nApril 11\, 2026\nNovember 14\, 2026\n\nLocation: Performance Theatre\, Birthplace of Country Music Museum\nCost: Free and open to the public\, donations encouraged to benefit the artists and the Birthplace of Country Music Museum\nThe Birthplace of Country Music Museum and Songwriters of Highlands Appalachia are proud to continue these events designed to highlight the talents of songwriters in our region. The Songwriters Circle Showcase will be held twice a year in 2026 at 2 p.m. ET\, April 11 and November 14\, in the performance theater at the museum. These two Showcases accompany the monthly Songwriters Circle events on second Saturdays. The event is free and open to the public; donations are appreciated. \n\nThe quarterly Songwriters Circle Showcase is an extension of the monthly Songwriters Circle program\, organized by Songwriters of Highlands Appalachia\, and will consist of artists who participate in the monthly Circle. The Showcase event is structured similarly to “in the round” events\, with each songwriter introducing themselves and their song\, which will be performed with or without accompaniment. The songwriter will then hold a discussion about the piece–the origins of the song\, its structure\, and inspiration–and take questions. \nAbout the featured Songwriters on April 11\nJulia Maggard is an Appalachian songwriter from the mountains of southwest Virginia.  Her story started in a Pentecostal mountaintop church when she was only three years old and improvised “Away in a Manger” after a Christmas service.  She has been singing ever since.  When she was only twenty\, she signed with an independent record label that produced her debut album “Hard to Believe.”  One of its songs\, “Ain’t Made Weak” made to number 77 on the Music Row Breakout charts.  Today\, she’s fully independent and has a 2026 single called “Forever Won’t Be Long Enough”.   Her love of language\, storytelling\, and people has curated a catalogue of music that truly connects. \n  \nJonathan Short has called the APP-UH-LATCH-UN Mountains home his whole life\, and like most mountain folk\, he has been deeply impacted by mountain music culture. His parents were his first musical influence as part of a southern gospel trio when he was a little boy. Because of the strong religious influence\, Jonathan cut his musical teeth by singing in churches in different bands. While still a worship leader in his church\, his musical tree sprouted a new branch as his songwriting began taking him on a whole new musical journey. \nIn 2015\, Jonathan began gigging around with his rock and roll band\, Hello October\, playing lots of local music festivals and venues. Now Jonathan is standing out on his own with a new batch of songs and a new emphasis on his songwriting\, hoping to pave a new way for himself as a singer/songwriter. He is a member of SOHA (Songwriters of Highlands Appalachia) and the 2025 winner of the Gathering in the Gap Songwriting Contest with his original song\, “Hometown.” \n  \nHannah Rae Adams is an independent singer-songwriter whose music blends elements of funk\, folk\, rock and baroque pop. Originally from Michigan\, she has called Bristol\, Tennessee\, home since 2017\, immersing herself in the region’s rich musical heritage while staying true to her diverse influences. With a background in mental health counseling\, Hannah Rae brings a deep sense of introspection and emotional authenticity to her songwriting\, crafting lyrics that resonate with themes of love\, self-discovery\, and transformation. \nHer sound is shaped by the timeless grooves of Motown\, the raw storytelling of folk and country\, and the energy of classic rock\, resulting in a style that feels both familiar and refreshingly unique. She is often compared to artists such as Carley Simon\, Stevie Nicks\, Alanis Morrisette and Joni Mitchell. Whether performing solo with an acoustic guitar or layering harmonies and intricate arrangements in the studio\, she delivers music that is as heartfelt as it is compelling. \nHannah’s journey as an artist has led her to stages across the Southeast\, where her rich\, dynamic vocals and magnetic presence have captivated audiences through her original music as well as a range of crowd-pleasing covers. She has performed live on platforms like Radio Bristol and Appalachian Artists Live\, gaining recognition for her ability to connect with listeners on a personal level. With an EP released last spring and a new\, full album coming next fall\, she is an artist to watch! \nWith a growing catalog of original music and a passion for storytelling\, Hannah Rae Adams continues to carve out her space in the independent music scene\, proving that honesty and artistry go hand in hand. \n\nLed by Mary Munsey\, a local musician\, educator and founder of Songwriters of Highlands Appalachia\, the weekly Songwriters Circle is open to songwriters of all ages and skill levels. The Circle encourages participants to share songs\, brainstorm ideas\, and support one another in their creative endeavors. Songwriter Circles are held the second Saturday of each month at the museum\, 2-5 p.m. There is no cost to participate. \n“The Songwriters Circle aims to foster a collaborative environment for songwriting\,” said Munsey. “Importantly\, aspiring songwriters do not need to play an instrument to join in the fun.” \nThe Songwriters Circle not only provides an opportunity for performance and networking\, but also emphasizes the importance of clarity and storytelling in songwriting. The group’s mission is to encourage creativity\, introduce songwriting shows to regional audiences\, and elevate the appreciation of songwriting as a valuable art form. \nAbout Songwriters of Highlands Appalachia\n\nSongwriters of Highlands Appalachia is led by Mary Munsey\, a local musician and educator\, recently retired from Virginia Highlands Community College. The program offers a great deal of flexibility in its format for attendees\, with varied songwriting interests and abilities. Some of the attendees play instruments and some are curious about songwriting and the process. Lyrics can sometimes only pare up with others that play instruments and put music with the words. Some writers don’t sing\, but enjoy hearing others perform their songs. Some of the performances can be a cappella. Some members of the group write one to three songs between sessions and some write more. Sometimes as busy as life gets\, writers don’t get to write new material between meetings. We don’t pressure anyone to write\, and we don’t criticize anyone. We treat each other with respect. We don’t discuss politics\, use profanity\, or write antagonistic lyrics. \n \nThe focus is not on the beauty of the voice or skill of the instrumentation\, but the clearness of the pronunciation and the effect of the song. We work on making sure the audience can hear every word. We are not professional musicians but we are creators of musical stories and that is the beauty of it. The sessions are open to anyone visiting the museum. Genres are not specified. Songs can be instrumental\, folk\, country\, bluegrass\, Americana\, blues\, humorous\, jazz\, R&B\, electronic\, and even pop\, to name a few. Writers are allowed to bring CDs for sale and to accept tips after performances. \nFor more information about the Songwriters Showcase and Songwriters Circle programs\, visit the Events page at BirthplaceOfCountryMusic.org.

SUMMARY:Gin Blossoms
DESCRIPTION:Formed in Tempe\, Arizona in 1987\, Gin Blossoms helped define alternative radio in the early ‘90s with their breakout major-label debut New Miserable Experience. Led by the gold-certified hit “Hey Jealousy\,” the album went on to sell more than four million copies\, delivering enduring singles like “Allison Road” and “Until I Fall Away” and cementing the band as power-pop mainstays. Their hometown legacy was officially recognized in October 2022\, when Tempe unveiled an honorary street sign renaming a section of 8th Street between Rural Road and Una Avenue as “Allison Road Avenue\,” celebrating both the beloved song and the album’s 30th anniversary.\nThey followed with the platinum-selling Congratulations I’m Sorry\, featuring the Top 10 smash “Follow You Down” and the GRAMMY®-nominated “As Long as It Matters.” Decades later\, their jangly guitars\, sharp hooks\, and emotionally resonant songwriting still hit with the same immediacy. Made up of Robin Wilson\, Jesse Valenzuela\, Bill Leen\, and Scotty Johnson\, Gin Blossoms continue to evolve without losing the sound that made them essential. Their latest album\, Mixed Reality (produced by Don Dixon and engineered by Mitch Easter)\, delivers 15 new tracks packed with chiming melodies\, wry lyricism\, and undeniable heart\, proving the band is as vital now as ever.\nInducted into the Arizona Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame in 2017\, Gin Blossoms remain road-tested and fan-driven\, touring relentlessly and sharing stages with Collective Soul\, Barenaked Ladies\, and Hootie & The Blowfish. Reuniting once again with Blues Traveler for this year’s tour\, the longtime collaborators are building on the momentum of last summer\, when they took over the Jimmy Kimmel Live! stage for an epic mashup — an electric reminder that Gin Blossoms continue to turn nostalgia into something unmistakably alive
