Hank, Pattie, & the Current
November 13
Bluegrass visionaries Hank Smith (banjo) and Pattie Hopkins Kinlaw’s (fiddle) innovative twist on traditional bluegrass music is a soulful brew flavored with classical, Motown, jazz, and pop influences. Hard-hitting bluegrass pickers who moonlight as symphonic classical musicians, Hank & Pattie have forged their unique sound by refreshingly embracing their myriad of musical influences to create a unique sound, true to themselves. Their overall musicianship, vocal harmonies, impassioned delivery and innovative arrangements captivate all generations of music lovers.
Nom de Plume
November 14
Nom de Plume drifts somewhere between a Left Bank café, a dusty vinyl collection, and a midnight jazz session that was never meant to end. Rooted in the spirit of Blossom Dearie, Nina Simone, Django Reinhardt, and Sidney Bechet, the group blends French chanson, Gypsy jazz, and classic American standards into something intimate, offbeat, and quietly cinematic.
The Gladson Family
November 20
The Gladson family resides in Hancock County, Tennessee, and plays various styles of traditional music, including old-time fiddling, gospel singing, and traditional bluegrass. The family keeps the authentic spirit of the music alive by performing regularly at heritage events, festivals, revivals, and funerals. They also help carry on the tradition by teaching traditional music through the Hancock JAM (Junior Appalachian Musicians ) program.
