SUMMARY:Rt 23 Listening Room Concert: Lauren & Jason Morrow
DESCRIPTION:Two nights\, two locations! The Birthplace of Country Music presents the RTE 23 Listening Room with Lauren & Jason Morrow of The Whiskey Gentry!\nDate: Friday\, February 16\, 2018\nTime: 7:00 p.m.\n(Doors open at 6:30 p.m.)\nLocation: Birthplace of Country Music Museum\nTickets: $10 Advance/$12 Day of Show\nTICKETS\nThe Birthplace of Country Music proudly presents another exciting edition of the RTE 23 Listening Room Concert Series! Two nights in two locations with the combined talents of Lauren and Jason Morrow of The Whiskey Gentry—a favorite act of Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion. You’ll have two opportunities to experience this talented couple in two separate\, yet intimate and unique\, venues.\nOn Friday\, February 16 the duo will appear at the Birthplace of Country Music Museum in Historic Downtown Bristol and they’ll perform at The Inn at Wise in Wise\, Virginia on Saturday\, February 24th.\n \nAbout Lauren & Jason Morrow\nFormed in 2009 by husband and wife songwriting duo Lauren Staley and Jason Morrow\, The Whiskey Gentry sound dwells most generally under the country category\, but to stifle them with that label isn’t fair. Lauren Staley’s voice\, as thoroughly Americana as any of her folk counterparts\, rings as clear as a bell. There’s some honky-tonk in their DNA\, a wink at bluegrass\, but there’s also a hint of garage rock.\nThe band’s third studio record\, Dead Ringer\, was released released in April 2017 on Pitch-A-Tent Records. Recorded at Asheville’s Echo Mountain Studio\, the album peaked in the Top 40 of the Americana Music Charts and made many of the year’s “Best Of” lists.\n

The tour will feature select artists that will to perform at MerleFest 2018 or have performed previously at the festival: The Way Down Wanderers\, The Barefoot Movement and Andy May.\n\nThe Way Down Wanderers\nEqual parts fast-paced and soulful\, 5-piece modern-folk Americana act\, The Way Down Wanderers\, draw listeners in with energy\, originality and soulful generosity. Playing\, performing and writing together for just 4 short years\, the Wanderers have built an enthusiastic and fast-growing following. Youthful and professionally trained\, these young men captivate audiences with soaring instrumentals\, foot stomping sing-alongs and a lively stage show and have created a buzz for themselves with their unplugged\, off-stage encores. The band’s debut\, self-titled album\, produced by Mike Marsh of the Avett Brothers and recorded at Sonic Ranch in El Paso TX\, is now available wherever music is sold. Front-men and founders\, Austin and Collin\, met in their hometown of Peoria\, IL when they joined the same folk band and embarked on their first tour at the ages of 14 and 18 years old. The two became fast friends and soon began writing music together\, ultimately forming The Way Down Wanderers when Collin was 16 and Austin\, 20 years old.\n\nThe Barefoot Movement\nMemorable melodies\, lush harmonies\, and exciting instrumentation: the music of Nashville\, TN’s The Barefoot Movement is made up of all of these things and more. With one shoe-less foot firmly planted in the world of roots music\, while the other wanders anywhere from the styles of pop to rock to R&B\, their genre busting sound may be hard to define\, but it is clearly infectious to anyone who hears it. Centered around the soaring vocals and songwriting of lead singer and fiddler Noah Wall\, the band has been touring since 2009\, and their most recent release was produced by Chuck Plotkin (Bruce Springsteen\, Bob Dylan) and Hank Linderman (Eagles\, America). Heralded by CMT Edge as “one of the most promising bands on the bluegrass scene\,” the music remains as down to earth as their intention for members of their audience: sit back\, relax\, take your shoes off\, and stay a while. With crowds teeming with enthusiasm at every performance\, and new fans joining the fold across the nation\, word is surely spreading and the message is clear: barefoot is better. Won’t you join the movement?\n\nAndy May\nVeteran singer/songwriter\, mandolinist\, and champion guitar picker\, Andy May\, infuses his songwriting and shows with his trademark creativity\, humor\, and consummate musicianship. He draws from a deep well of traditional American music and his writing taps into styles from blues to Bluegrass\, old-time country to contemporary folk\, traditional reels to roots-rock. He often co-writes with his wildlife biologist-Master Gardener-lyricist wife\, Lauren\, who brings a certain earthiness and wit to their joint efforts.\nAndy’s latest album\, Room for Roots\, has played nationwide on independent Americana and Country Music radio\, with multiple original songs charting. The album itself made Roots Music Report’s 2016 Top Americana Country Album Chart.\nAlso an educator and mentor\, Andy has provided performance opportunities for hundreds of young musicians at music festivals for nearly three decades through his beloved Acoustic Kids Showcases. This is his 18th MerleFest.\nJohnson added\, “We are delighted to showcase some of the finest artists from MerleFest lineups. MerleFest regulars tell us that they can hardly wait for every April to arrive\, and now they don’t have to! We believe that the fans who catch a MerleFest On the Road show will be more enthusiastic than ever for the festival in April.”\nMerleFest 2018 will take place from April 26 – 29 on the campus of Wilkes Community College in Wilkesboro\, N.C.\, where the MerleFest on the Road artists will be joined by Kris Kristofferson\, Jamey Johnson\, Rodney Crowell\, Rhiannon Giddens\, Elephant Revival\, The Devil Makes Three\, a Midnight Jam hosted by Town Mountain and Jim Lauderdale\, among many others.

SUMMARY:Jonesborough: I Am Home
DESCRIPTION:I Am Home Returns to Jonesborough\nFebruary 23\, 24\, 25 and March 2\, 3\, 4\nThe play I Am Home\, a compelling theater piece created from the stories of the people of Jonesborough’s past and present\, and featuring an incredible cast of seventy community members\, comes back home to perform at the McKinney Center beginning February 23.\n \nThe play features stories of Jonesborough\, and the courage\, strength\, humor\, and tenacity of its people\, in this play made up of dozens of vignettes\, adapted from oral histories that were gathered over a year-long process.\n \nThe current cast is comprised of actors of all ages\, and from many diverse backgrounds. Many of the adult actors have commented on what an important experience it is for them to be playing a role of someone from their own community- a real person\, who may be sitting in the audience when the show is presented. Dana Kehs\, an actor in the show\, as well as the show’s costumer\, plays the role of Virginia Kennedy\, and said\, “I feel honored to play Mrs. Kennedy\, and help tell the story of the work she and her husband have done for Jonesborough. It is incredible to be in a play that is so real\, that the person you’re playing might show up that night at the performance.”\n \nThe stories in the play are taken from oral histories\, and are all based on true events\, or\, as playwright Jules Corriere likes to say\, “They started out true.” The vignettes cover\n \na wide range of time periods\, to include Jonesborough’s famed Buffalo Soldier\, Alfred Martin Rhea\, to Sidney Smallwoood’s recollections from his grandmother\, who was a little girl during the Civil War\, to Alfred Greenlee’s accounts of Jonesborough’s railroad days\, life growing up on Depot Street\, and his role in the integration movement of the Town’s schools. Vignettes about the migrant march\, the coming of electricity and the effect it had on families out in the country\, and memories about coming to town for the first time\, and visiting beloved businesses such as Lavender Grocery\, Hoss McCall’s and Jarman Shoes\, and of course\, the Jackson Theatre\, all help to paint a picture of the Town’s continued changes\, growth\, and perseverance. All of these stories also speak to the important sense of what it means to find “home” in Jonesborough.\n \nThe play was originally performed in the McKinney Center back in 2011 before it was renovated\, as a project initiated by the International Storytelling Center\, and later adopted by the Town of Jonesborough. The original intent of the play was to embrace the Town’s legacy of storytelling by telling its own story. Jimmy Neil Smith\, founder of the National Storytelling Festival\, brought in Community Performance International artists Dr. Richard Owen Geer\, Jules Corriere\, and Iega Jeff\, to develop a unique play that told Jonesborough’s fascinating story. Composer and lyricist Heather McCluskey and her son\, composer Brett McCluskey\, were brought in to create five original songs for the show.\n \nAfter spending a year collecting oral stories from local community members such as Alfred Greenlee\, Sidney Smallwood\, Nancy Robinson\, Sue Henley and nearly eighty others\, the play was crafted as a way to bring people together through their shared stories\, highlight the important stories of the people who helped shape the community\, and provide a sense of pride in community\, all while strengthening neighborhood bonds\, as the large cast of actors and crew worked together to bring the show alive. The original show proved its purpose\, creating a strong community among the participants that has since radiated out in the community in many ways\, including the creation of the Yarn Exchange Radio Show\, the story-based radio show now in its seventh season.\n \nThe McKinney Center\, now fully restored\, is welcoming the play to be performed back in its original home. Stage manager and founding Yarn Exchange member Phyllis Fabozzi stated\, “I think it is important that we’re performing at the McKinney Center again. This is where we started\, and what this place has become now is really powerful.” Fabozzi is likely speaking to the fact that the building\, whose story is featured in the play\, was once a building meant to separate the community\, as it served as the African American school from 1940-1965 when integration was complete. Now\, the building serves to bring people together\, through storytelling and the arts.\n \nThe show will run February 23\, 24\, 25 and March 2\, 3\, 4. Performance times will be Fridays at 7:30 PM\, Saturdays at 2:00pm and 7:30pm\, and Sundays at 2:00pm. Tickets are $14 general admission\, $12 for seniors and students. Special rates are also available for groups of 15 or more. To purchase tickets or for more information\, call the Historic Jonesborough Visitors Center at 423-753-1010 or online at jonesborough.com/tickets.\n

SUMMARY:Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver
DESCRIPTION:With nearly 40 albums to their credit\, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver have multiple Grammy®\, Dove\, ICM\, IBMA\, and SPBGMA Award nominations\, and are 7-time winners of IBMA’s Vocal Group of the Year.  Lawson was inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame at the Ryman Auditorium in 2012.\nIn 1979\, Doyle laid the foundation for what has become the Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver sound. The makeup of the band has changed many times in the last 38 years\, but by integrating each member’s special talents into the group\, the Quicksilver sound has not been sacrificed.\nDoyle plays mandolin and sings tenor\, baritone and lead. Josh Swift plays the resonator guitar and sings bass on the quartets. Joe Dean plays banjo and guitar and occasionally sings lead. Dustin Prytle is the group’s tenor/lead singer and plays the guitar. Eli Johnston\, who plays bass\, shares lead and tenor vocals with Dustin. Stephen Burwell is on the fiddle.

SUMMARY:Capitol Theatre: William Wild
DESCRIPTION:The Capitol Theatre of Greeneville’s Appalachian Homegrown Series continues in March with William Wild.\nWilliam Wild is the moniker of 24-year-old Alternative singer-songwriter Garrett Sale. Born and raised at the foothill of the Appalachian Mountains in Knoxville\, TN\, Sale began to pursue music while attending The University of Tennessee.\nIt was there that Sale worked on his first collection of recordings with Knoxville friends and fellow musicians\, eventually releasing a self-titled LP under the name “William Wild” (the nickname of a local homeless man).\nSale then embarked on a solo journey through Europe\, where he wrote four of the six songs on his new EP\, Steady Now. Continuing with the layered vocals\, l…ush strings\, dark tones of the debut album\, Steady Now explores Sale’s search for peace while wrestling with self-pity\, guilt and materialism.\nThe title track is a beautifully intense experience as he sings “Oh death won’t you give me a second chance. I’m looking for an easy way out. I need it more than the company I’m searching for.”\nThe album’s most cutting song “When I’ve Been Gone” is also his most personal\, written from the perspective of his father who was homeless for 5 years and battling addiction. It’s an emotional experience as he sings “What about those times I almost changed? What do they mean?”\nThe opening song “Sleeptalk” finds him consumed by anxiety with a romantic relationship to stabilize himself. “Even when you run like a bullet shot out of a gun\,” he sings\, “I’m gonna let you know where you need to be”.\nHazy guitars\, dusty keys\, and blurry pedal steel illuminate the recordings of weighty songs immersed in loss\, fear of failure\, and the worthiness of human existence. With plush nostalgic pop sensibilities\, Steady Now radiates tranquility. In an atmosphere of warmth\, the listener is invited to delve into psyche of kindred spirits. It is there that unfaltering refuge is found.\nTickets: $10\nDoors Open: 7:00pm\nShow Time: 8:00pm\nConcessions Available – FREE WIFI\nWebsite: www.williamwildmusic.com\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/williamwildmusic\nVideo: www.youtube.com/watch?v=icyG4zF_tsM\nType of Music: Indie Folk\nCome if you like: Van Morrison\, Crosby Stills & Nash\, Ben Howard

SUMMARY:Farm & Fun Time: Bumper Jacksons\, Roochie Toochie & The Sheperd Kings and Bill & the Belles
DESCRIPTION:Radio Bristol presents the Farm and Fun Time variety show\, live from the Birthplace of Country Music Museum with the rootsy jazz of Bumper Jacksons and the tin pan alley sound of Roochie Toochie & the Shepherd Kings.\nDate: Thursday\, March 8\, 2018\nTime: 7:00 p.m.\n(Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Must be in your seat by 6:50 p.m.)\nLocation: Birthplace of Country Music Museum\nBUY TICKETS \nABOUT FARM AND FUN TIME\nFarm and Fun Time the historic Radio Program broadcasting from Downtown Bristol\, was a staple to listeners across the Southeast during the 1940s and 1950s on the former WCYB Radio. Radio Bristol breathes new life into the classic program with a fun\, energetic show broadcasting live from the Birthplace of Country Music Museum and features music by house band Bill & the Belles. Hosted by Radio Bristol producer and house band-leader Kris Truelsen\, Farm & Fun Time is an event the whole family can enjoy live\, in the studio or when gathered around their radios. \nABOUT THE TALENT\n\nBumper Jacksons\nBumper Jacksons are hot and sweet\, painting America’s story from the streets of New Orleans to Appalachian hollers. Unafraid to scrap together new sounds from forgotten 78’s\, the Bumper Jacksons elegantly balance paying homage to the traditions while fashioning their own unique\, playful style. The group began as a duo\, a city-meets-country experiment between songstress Jess Eliot Myhre and banjo player Chris Ousley. They hopped on bicycles\, touring the country\, instruments on their backs\, seeking to reimagine roots music. In five short years\, Bumper Jacksons grew to a brassy seven-piece\, with horns and pedal steel. They’ve been honored multiple times as the Mid-Atlantic’s “Artist of the Year” & “Best Traditional Band” at the Washington Area Music Awards. Bursting at the seams with some of the richest threads of old America\, Bumper Jacksons bring you into the center of a party where everyone’s invited and the dance floor never sleeps.\n\nRoochie Toochie & the Ragtime Shepherd Kings\n“Our mission is to perform the weirdest songs from the early days of tin pan alley on the format on which they were first recorded—wax cylinder.\nWe all share a love of antiquated pop tunes\, and we recently took on the challenge of recording them in the only medium that does them justice. These old songs give a voice to a bygone era and reflect the attitudes of their time\, and no matter how silly they seem they are historical documents of their time.\nWe aim to mine the zaniest and most obscure songs from the early 20th century and record them for a new audience to underscore both the absurdity and importance of popular music in American history.” – Roochie Toochie & the Ragtime Shepherd Kings.\n\nBill & the Belles\nWhat began as a project to explore the space created between hillbilly and urban\, between vaudeville\nand down home\, has arrived somewhere entirely new. Bill and the Belles offers a contemporary\nreimagining of a bygone era\, a vocal-centric performance that breathes new life into the sounds of\nearly country music. At the foothills of the Blue Ridge and the forefront of old-time music\, Bill and the\nBelles continue to further the music traditions of their region. From sentimental Southern ballads to the\npopular songs of Tin Pan Alley to regional fiddle breakdowns\, a Bill and the Belles show is a celebration\nof the diversity country music once represented.\nBill and the Belles play alongside America’s top country and roots music artists as the house band for\nthe historic radio program Farm and Fun Time presented by Radio Bristol and the Birthplace of Country\nMusic. Lifelong musicians Kris Truelsen\, Grace Van’t Hof\, Kalia Yeagle\, and Karl Zerfas bring to the stage\nan uplifting show unlike any other\, full of humor\, high spirits\, and all-around revelry. It’s clear this group\nshares a rare musical connection and deep love for the music\, and their excitement is contagious.
