SUMMARY:String Fest
DESCRIPTION:$30.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n  \nFeaturing artists Arkansauce\, Into The Fog\, and Palmyra. Doors open at 2\, music starts at 3! \nEstablished in the Shenandoah Valley\, Palmyra’s set explores the fusion of traditional folk string instruments\, three part harmonies and foot percussion. The trio captures the collective spirit of three Virginia natives\, Teddy (he/him)\, Manoa (he/him)\, and Sasha (they/them)\, often described as a distant cousin of the progressive folk band\, Punch Brothers\, mixed with elements of Oliver Wood or the Avett Brothers. Palmyra’s songs are intimate and contemplative\, with arrangements that allow them to create the illusion of a full\, larger-than-three ensemble. The trio’s sound is a nod to Appalachia and Midwestern Americana\, apparent through their stirring craftsmanship and dedication to a folk-driven\, innovative experience throughout each live performance.   \nIn 2022\, Palmyra made their Newport Folk Festival debut\, were named the FloydFest 2022 On The Rise Winner\, and performed over 150 tour dates on acclaimed stages up and down the east coast\, including a support tour with national headlining act\, Illiterate Light. They are currently working on writing and recording new music in their new home of Richmond\, VA and will be touring all of 2023. \n— \nWinners of the 2021 MerleFest Band Competition\, Into The Fog is a genre-jumping string band based out of Raleigh\, North Carolina. With its members having various backgrounds ranging from bluegrass\, country\, rock\, to funk\, Into The Fog creates a musical melting pot of sounds in an acoustic/newgrass setting. The band is made up of Brian Stephenson(Acoustic guitar\, Vocals)\, Winston Mitchell(Mandolin\, Vocals)\, Derek Lane(Bass\, Vocals) and Connor Kozlosky (Electric guitar\, Vocals).  \nOriginally formed in Wilmington\, NC\, Into The Fog immediately hit the ground running as a band by heading across the country to compete at the 2018 Telluride Bluegrass Festival Band Competition only a few months after coming together. That cross country trip was recorded by friend of the band and videographer Mason Godwin in his documentary Band #7:The Ride to Telluride.  \nAfter the Telluride trip\, the band got to work playing as much as they could around North Carolina. Becoming a mainstay at over 30 different breweries around the state Into The Fog started to quickly make a name for themselves. Then in November of 2018 the band went to a cabin outside of Waynesville\, NC and spent a week recording their debut album Wishin’ It Would Rain\, which was released on February 22\, 2019.  \n“The trio crafts a dynamic mix of songs and sounds\, from the gypsy feel of “Caawphonation” to the running-from-Johnny-Law feel of instrumental “Cedar Island Rendezvous.”- Brian Tucker(Star News) \nWith their debut album under their belt Into The Fog started to pick up momentum exchanging brewery gigs for music venues and festivals with opportunities like playing Shakori Hills\, Rooster Walk\, FloydFest\, MerleFest\, NC Homegrown Music Festival\, IBMA\, and Front Porch Fest along with opening slots for national touring acts Sam Bush\, Ghost of Paul Revere\, Jon Stickley Trio\, Keller & The Keels and Town Mountain. Into The Fog solidified their sound further with their 14 track sophomore album Runnin’ Blind and Chasin’ Time which was released in May of 2021. \n— \nArkansauce calls forth melodies of the Ozark Mountains’ rolling hills and raging rivers with their distinct blend of newgrass. This progressive string quartet features Tom Andersen on bass\, guitarist Zac Archuleta\, Ethan Bush on mandolin\, and Adams Collins on banjo. Their music features improvisational string leads matched with complex melodies\, intriguing rhythms\, and deep thumping bass grooves. Each member sings lead and harmony parts as well as contributes to the lyrics\, which offer authentic\, intelligent songwriting with hard-hitting hooks. \nMusic Mecca’s Spencer Nachman calls them a “fiery\, finger-picking string band… What is apparent at any Arkansauce show is their positivity and desire to uplift the audience’s spirit\, no matter the circumstance.” \nThey are a band inspired not only from their home state of Arkansas\, but also throughout their travels. “We are a band that spends most of our time in the back of a van hurtling toward long nights\, good times\, and a destiny unknown\,” says Ethan. “Our inspiration is gathered by events unfolding in our own adventures in real time. These days\, the desire to create\, inspire\, and redefine within our scene seems to be the main driving force behind our music. From a young age we were huge fans of live music and were introduced to a lot of great music by our families.” \nArkansauce independently released their 5th album\, OK to Wonder\, on April 21\, 2023. With 11 original tracks—ranging from upbeat and stimulating to contemplative and encouraging—the collection is filled with songs of revelry\, wonder\, insight\, and whimsy. \nThe album was met to critical acclaim with reviews in Bluegrass Today (“a truly inspired effort”)\, Ameriana Highways (“this is high-octane stuff\, meticulously rendered & with lots of spirit”)\, Americana UK (“that’s a bluegrass line-up right there – but this isn’t your grandpappy’s bluegrass”)\, and Blog Critics; premieres by The Bluegrass SItuation and Glide Magazine. Songs from the album are in two official Spotify Playlists: “Indie Bluegrass” and “Fast Grass” and have received airplay on SiriusXM Bluegrass Junction. \nThey’ve also interviewed and performed a few of the new tunes in studio in their homestate with Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and Little Rock’s THV11. \nThe band was founded in 2011 after Zac and Ethan\, who had grown up across the street from one another in Johnson County\, Arkansas\, moved to Fayetteville. Tom and Adams were slowly introduced to them through the tight-knit Fayetteville music community. During a fateful gig at a Riverstomp Music Festival in 2014\, the band was down a couple of members\, and Adams and Tom filled in on the fly—magic was made on the stage that night\, and the lineup was forever changed. \nHaving played shows from California to Connecticut over the last several years in addition to two tours in Europe\, the band is no stranger to the road. They supported Yonder Mountain String Band for a leg of their summer tour in 2019\, played mainstage spots on festivals with bands (including but not limited to) Greensky Bluegrass\, Railroad Earth\, The Del McCoury Band\, Billy Strings\, Leftover Salmon\, Tauk\, The Wood Brothers\, and shared the stage with the legendary Sam Bush as a guest. \n  \n\n\n$30.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Big Daddy Love
DESCRIPTION:$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n  \nAs you can probably tell by their name\, Big Daddy Love is no gentle string quartet. Their music has been described as “a blend of rock\, bluegrass\, southern soul\, and psychedelic jams.” One reviewer characterized them as “a band with teeth” (fortunately in both a literal and metaphorical sense). Identifying a single genre for Big Daddy Love is nearly impossible; all four members are comfortable playing almost any type of American music. Collaboratively\, the band produces a unique sound that they have long referred to as “Appalachian Rock.” \nBig Daddy Love (BDL to many fans) has released four CDs\, most recently Live at Ziggy’s and This Time Around. One reviewer wrote\, “Big Daddy Love is a force. The festival scene has been eating them up. If you haven’t been able to check them out yet\, then you are missing out. It’s a foot-stomping good time at every single show\, and they are the nicest guys I have met in music.” \nThe quartet–– based in Winston-Salem\, North Carolina–– has played well over a thousand shows over most of the country.\nMembers include: Matteo “Joey” Recchio on electric guitar and vocals\, Brian Paul Swenk on banjo\, Ashley Sutton on bass guitar\, and Scotty Lewis on drums. \nAlong the way\, they have played venues of all sizes\, from listening-room coffee houses to the 20\,000 seat PNC Arena in Raleigh\, NC. Their festival resume ranges from local favorites like The Big What to larger regional festivals such as Bristol Rhythm & Roots and the premier southeastern festival\, FloydFest. In 2010\, BDL won FloydFest’s  “Under the Radar” contest\, which recognizes the best up-and-coming band of the festival. \nThe music is only one aspect of the BDL experience. A close-knit community of fans has developed into an extended BDL family\, many of whom travel throughout the southeast for multiple shows and are a huge part of what makes Big Daddy Love successful. “We’re constantly amazed by how many people have jumped on board with us and do so much to help us in every way possible\,” says banjoist Brian Paul Swenk. “Whether it’s Kickstarter donations\, giving us a place to stay on the road\, or even giving their CDs away to friends and coming back to buy another\, we’ve learned that it takes hundreds of people to help a band find success in today’s music industry.” \n  \n\n\n$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Good Shot Judy
DESCRIPTION:$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n  \nTHE SWING AND THE SWAGGER… \nIt’s hard to nail an exact moment when Good Shot Judy came to life. \nIt could have been when brothers Brett and Jeff Cahoon stepped away from the success they’d achieved with their punk band Ten Years from Now and chose instead to see what they could do with the old-time jazz standards they’d admired for so long. The brothers Cahoon formed a small combo\, and – wouldn’t you know it? – plenty of others felt the same groove. \nOr maybe it was when an inside joke made a name for itself. Their mother\, Judy Cahoon\, is an avid golfer\, and just as common as pars and birdies were three words of encouragement shouted by a supportive friend\, who pumped a fist and hollered across the fairway every time she took a swing: “Good shot\, Judy!” It became a funny family warble among the Cahoons – and as it turns out\, a solid band name\, too. \nOr perhaps that moment of creation arrived when Good Shot Judy freed their potential energy. Keen to give the classic melodies the respect and attention – as well as the power – that it deserved\, the Cahoons filled out Good Shot Judy with a full complement of horns\, percussion and vocals. And magic happened: an ensemble that was bigger than the sum of its parts. \nIn a sense\, Good Shot Judy was already in the stars long ago\, during those formative decades from the 1930s on\, when small jazz combos\, big brass bands and the crooners who sang on top of them were forging an enduring style and repertoire that would be written into the DNA of American music. \nBut really\, all these had a hand in making Good Shot Judy what is today: a big amp jazz band that sets stages aflame nationwide. \nAudiences may never consider that the Good Shot Judy show they’re seeing has been an evolution. They’re too captivated by the sound and spectacle of music that reaches through the time. They’re too caught up in performance that has one foot dancing in the past and one in the here and now. \nA Good Shot Judy show offers all those tunes you know just from growing up an American – songs you can at least hum along to\, if you don’t outright know most of the words. But the music itself is only part of the band’s allure; there’s something electric in the execution\, and it’s that vigor that carries the day as much as the pull of recognition. \nSo\, yeah\, there’s a history. And it’s a big one. Bigger than any one person. Bigger than any one band\, for that matter. But Good Shot Judy is as close as it comes to an intersection between an era’s defining sound and the pleasure of enjoying it the way it was meant to be heard. \nLET’S SWING IT\, BABY… \n \n  \n \n  \n \n  \n\n\n$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n

Opening for artists like Samantha Fish and Tab Benoit to Bob Seger \, ZZ Top\, and Gov’t Mule. \nDuring the 2020 lockdown Anthony continued to live stream acoustic shows to his fans through Facebook. “I did it at first just to stay sane\, performing live is something I NEED to do… It’s part of my makeup. I hoped it would help others get some sort of comfort and forget about what was going on for a little bit.” The streams were a success and one of the new songs “Isolation Blues” ended up being used by NPR for “Voice of America”. Other songs followed and along with a new trio\, an EP is in the works for 2021. “I’m really digging the Power Trio format” says Rosano\, “These guys are great to play with and the live shows have been straight FIRE!” Anthony is looking forward to taking the Trio on the road with select festivals booked for 2021 and more on the horizon. \n\n\n \n  \n\n\n$15.00 \nBuy now\n\n\n

SUMMARY:St. Patrick’s Day Party with Poisoned Dwarf
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately\, at this time tickets have been sold out for this event.\n  \nPoisoned Dwarf is a Celtic music group that plays virtuosic\, innovative and passionate renditions of traditional Irish and Scottish music on acoustic instruments. Five talented musicians create a driving sonic energy that has been captivating audiences for over a decade with whistles\, flutes\, violin\, guitar\, percussion\, and Uilleann pipes together with exciting and lyrical vocals. Poisoned Dwarf performs at a wide variety of musical venues from highland festivals to theaters\, from churches to sophisticated listening venues throughout the East Coast\, to the occasional pub just for fun. \nThomas DeRose \nThomas DeRose has been playing Irish flute for about 20 years. Tom’s music career began at the age of ten when he  joined the Colonial Williamsburg Fife and Drum Corp as a fifer. He learned to love music from the British Isles at the Corp and in 1998\,  he tried his hand at the Irish flute. He quickly found out that even though the fingering was the same as the fife’s\, the breathing was different. So he launched into  a self-guided search for technique. His love of the instrument lead him to listen and learn from the best. The Chieftains\, Dervish\, Lunasa\, The Bothy Band\, Conal O’Grada\, Nomos\, Boys of the Lough\, Matt Malloy\, Kevin Crawford\, Cathal McConnell were his inspiration and mentors. In 2002\, Thomas decided to start a Celtic Band with banjo player Eric Hunter. Soon\, Stewart Pittman joined them on pipes and whistles\, Poisoned Dwarf was born. Personnel has developed and changed through the years but the band carries on and continues to play traditional Celtic music in a fun and engaging way. \nMei-Li Garcia  \nMei-Li was born in Sevilla\, Spain to a musical family and began playing Suzuki violin at age 3.  Her earliest musical experiences included singing and dancing flamenco with her talented musical family and running around Europe with the other band children as her father’s rock band\, Smash\, went on tour. She began studying violin formally with theSuzuki method at age 3\, and as an older child\, studied violin and voice at the Conservatory of Seville\, Spain eventually going on to Major in Music at the Mason Cross School of the Arts at Rutgers University and the College of William and Mary from which she holds a double Bachelor of Arts in Music and History. \nWayne Hill \nWayne Hill has had the good fortune to enjoy a lifetime of music making with family and friends. Along the way his love for chamber music led to a decades long passion for folk music in general and Traditional Irish Music in particular.  \nA stroke of luck had him cross paths in early 2005 with a few colleagues at Colonial Williamsburg and their band\, Poisoned Dwarf. Thomas\, Stewart\, Lance\, Eric\, and Cassie were all helpful and patient (!) with his continuing development as a folk musician\, all of whom remain lifelong friends. That trend continues aboard Admiral DeRose’s ship with Patrick and Mei-Li. \nWayne is always 100% “in” regardless of the project: teaching for the Williamsburg Montessori School\, performing\, recording\, composing\, or for his music related work since 1992 for The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation (including winning two Emmys). \nInspired by the fiddling of Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh and Tommy Peoples\, the piping of Willie Clancy\, and the Irish Flute playing of Matt Molloy\, Wayne’s personal quest to develop as a traditional fiddler continues while also enjoying the pleasure of music making with PD’s members and their listeners. \nLance Pedigo \nLance Pedigo got his start in his musical life as a young drummer in the Colonial Williamsburg Fifes and Drums. After graduating from the program\, he continued his musical studies at James Madison University graduating with a major in Music\, percussion. After some years in New York performing in broadway and jazz venues\, Lance returned to Williamsburg\, VA and took over leadership of the Colonial Williamsburg Fifes and Drums Corps for 25 years and manager of the Music Department at Colonial Williamsburg. Lance is a truly versatile musician performing throughout the country as a percussionist with a rock band\, London\, a Klezmer band\, Bagels and Fralox\, and various jazz and Baroque musical ensembles.  Lance is a founding member of Poisoned Dwarf breathing life and energy into old tunes with his masterful bodhran playing. \nPatrick Rooney \nDespite being a native of upstate New York\, Patrick found his musical oasis in Williamsburg\, VA. Prior to his introduction to the tidewater area he worked as an actor in regional theaters and also worked in film/tv production out of NYC. His musical life began early in church choirs\, but was truly sparked when he was introduced to the electric bass at 14. Rock n roll was his language until opportunity called him down to Virginia. Within a short time\, he was introduced to Poisoned Dwarf and he hasn’t looked back. With fire in his belly and melody in his heart\, Patrick provides a raw\, driving energy on the guitar and mandolin.  \nStewart Pittman \nBorn in Williamsburg and joined the Colonial Williamsburg Fifes and Drums in 1990 as a snare drummer. During his time as a juvenile performer he played for notable individuals such as Fred Rogers of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood in 1993 and for the arrival and visit of Jiang Zemin\, the Premier of China\, in 1997. After his tenure as a performer with the Fifes and Drums\, Stewart worked for nearly eight years as a military history interpreter at Colonial Williamsburg’s Public Magazine while attending nearby Christopher Newport University. In the summer of 2006\, Stewart was hired as drum instructor for the Fifes and Drums and as an event coordinator for the department of Historic Area Events. Stewart comes from a family of bagpipers\, and he is a master at all manner of bagpipes and Celtic wind instruments. He can usually be found surrounded by tin whistles\, low whistles and his particular favorite\, the Uilleann pipes. He is one of the founding members of Poisoned Dwarf and is a sought after performer on the bagpipes and whistles with various Virginia Celtic ensembles.
