                                <description><![CDATA[Jacoozy is a band that thrives on connection, both with their audience and each other. Formed in 2021, the band emerged from the underground house show scene in Boone, North Carolina, blending Southern rock, jam traditions, and modern sensibilities. Their sound is built on live energy, with each performance capturing the raw spirit of their music&#226;&#8364;&#8221;no studio tricks or polished layers. Jacoozy&#8217;s songwriting is deeply rooted in introspection, capturing moments of time and self-reflection while celebrating their Southern roots and the communities that have shaped them. The band&#8217;s approach to music is collaborative, shaped by their basement jams and experimental spirit. With a unique blend of influences and a clear mission to create authentic, live-driven music, Jacoozy&#8217;s future looks as promising as the stories they are telling.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Fonville x Fribush is the brand new musical collaboration from acclaimed drummer Corey Fonville (Butcher Brown) and in-demand organist Sam Fribush. Like a hip-hop link up from the 90s, the pair&#8217;s collective ear, musical talents and friendship pushes the limits of the R&#38;B organ trio sound into a more youthful, tasty style of blue collar jazz. Fonville x Fribush features a rotating cast of guitarists both in studio and live in concert, including Charlie Hunter, Alan Good Parker and Morgan Burrs. Songs like &#8220;I Couldn&#8217;t Love You More&#8221; and &#8220;Blue Chips&#8221; immerse audiences in Atlantic Coast soundscapes of their hometown roots in North Carolina and Virginia. Listen to the debut Fonville x Fribush EP &#8216;R&#38;B Organ Trio&#8217; featuring Charlie Hunter out now everywhere.&#160; &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Sam Morrow&#160;has sound that exists outside of genre and geography. It's his own version of modern-day American roots music: a mix of roadhouse rock &#38; roll, bluesy R&#38;B, and country-fried funky-tonk, driven forward by groove, grease, and guitars.&#8220;A sinewy, head-nodding listen&#8230;demands to be played loud at parties.&#8221; -&#160;Rolling Stone "The record is buttressed by two strong singles: the keyboard-heavy opener &#8220;By Your Side&#8221; and the driving, twangy &#8220;Medicine Man,&#8221; both perfectly showcasing Morrow&#8217;s whiskey-soaked, rich vocals, bringing to mind the ghost of Leon Russell, offering a powerful one-two Tyson-worthy punch opening the record."&#160;- GLIDE"It&#8217;s certainly the best rock album this year." -&#160;Farce the Music &#160; Time Sawyer&#8217;s name reflects the pull between the past and the future. The character Tom Sawyer evokes the rural background and love of home that the band shares. Time is a muse for songwriting; it&#8217;s the thread that runs through life, bringing new experiences and giving us a sense of urgency, while still connecting us with our past. The folk-rock band has performed on the stages of some of the Southeast&#8217;s most iconic festivals, including Merlefest, Floydfest, Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion, Albino Skunk Music Festival, and Carolina in the Fall. They&#8217;ve shared bills with American Aquarium, John Craigie, Hiss Golden Messenger, Langhorne Slim, John Moreland, Steep Canyon Rangers, The Wood Brothers, Susto, and many more.&#160;&#160;]]></description>

Having performed on the stages of NBC's The Voice, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, The Grand Ole Opry, and the Ryman, Karla has certainly found her voice.

                                <description><![CDATA[Sam Tayloe&#160;Through his full band vehicle, Time Sawyer, Sam Tayloe is interested in &#8220;real people and real songs&#8221; and that&#8217;s just what the listener finds in his music &#8211; a sense of realness. Blending a grassroots feel with heart-felt lyrics, Tayloe pulls the listener in with introspective ballads that land in that rootsy sweet spot where folk, alt-country, and rock gather for a good time. &#160; Kray Van Kirk &#160;is a gifted songwriter whose allegorical weave of contemporary and mythological themes is both remarkable and tremendously relevant. He backs that up with deft guitar work and a voice that embodies power and genuine tenderness. A steller and meticulous musician, equally rooted in the mind and the heart.&#8221;&#160; &#160; Abigail Dowd&#160; Our fearless host who still enjoys music most when it&#8217;s embedded in real life, sitting around a fire or every third Tuesday night at the Flat Iron. Each month Abigail invites musician friends to fall into space with her and the audience for what she describes as an evening in her adopted living room. They collaborate, share new songs, play old favorites, make things up, make you cry, make you laugh and most of all make you glad you came]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA["Much like the duo themselves, the songs range near and far, from the sticky humidity of the Carolinas to the arid and dusty cellars of the West, telling stories of simplistic beauty that unravel through gritty vocals and thoughtful harmonies. The bare authenticity of each song sweeps up the listener for a ride that might wander but will certainly not end in the same place where it began."&#160; Dylan Nicholson (Greensboro, NC) and Eric Patterson (Lodi, CA) formed the The Turkey Buzzards in Morro Bay, CA and have shared stages with John R. Miller, Robert Earl Keen, Jeffery Martin, The Deslondes, Dawes, White Buffalo, Brothers Comatose, and frequently join Willy Tea Taylor as members of The Fellership. Stripmall Ballads is the starkly poetic project of Phillips Saylor Wisor, and Everybody Wins is his most fully realized statement yet&#8212;a raw, cinematic folk record mapping the forgotten corners of America with grit and grace. Produced by J. Tom Hnatow and recorded at Small Blue Studio in Lexington, Kentucky, the album features John R. Miller and The Engine Lights, with guest appearances from Lydia Loveless, Willy Tea Taylor, and Bob Sumner. Drawing comparisons to Neil Young, Bonnie &#8220;Prince&#8221; Billy, and the lineage of Townes Van Zandt, Gillian Welch, and Jason Molina, Wisor writes slow-burning ballads set in flood zones, mill towns, and long-empty bedrooms, tracing survival, loss, and fleeting connection on the margins. With a lived-in voice and piercing lyrical empathy, Stripmall Ballads delivers songs that honor overlooked lives&#8212;and hit with the kind of emotional weight that resonates deeply on stages and festival grounds.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[A Tribute to Dylan &#38; Cash celebrates the legacy of two American giants. Created by Award-winning songwriter Rod Abernethy, recipient of 2019 Grand Prize winner of American Songwriter's Bob Dylan Song Contest and David Burney, frontman of the acclaimed touring band Johnny Folsom 4. Together, they bring the lyrical genius and unmistakable voices of Dylan &#38; Cash to life with unforge@able performances, rich storytelling and visuals. It's a moving journey through the music, history, and the enduring friendship of Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash. Rod Abernethy is an authenFc southern folk troubadour, master acousFc guitarist, and award winning songwriter and composer for film, TV and video games. Rod&#8217;s awards include the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 InternaAonal AcousAc Music Awards. His album Normal Isn&#8217;t Normal Anymore received rave reviews from No Depression, American Highways and The Wall Street Journal and was in the Top 20 CD of 2021 at No. 11 on the Folk InternaAonal Folk Charts. David Burney&#8217;s lilFng southern baritone delivers Cash&#8217;s classic songs so well you may well wonder from Fme to Fme if Johnny himself is in the building. David has been the lead singer for Johnny Folsom 4 for over a decade and while nobody really sounds like Johnny Cash, nobody sounds more like Johnny Cash than Johnny Folsom 4. No Depression magazine says &#8220;For those of us unable to have seen Cash perform during his life, this is more than a treat. It&#8217;s a Ame machine. When it comes to honoring Johnny Cash, JF4 walks the line.&#8221;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Texas-born Jaimee Harris and North Carolina&#8217;s Wes Collins are joining forces for the Folk&#8217;N Friends Tour. Their sounds&#8212;Harris&#8217;s emotionally raw small-town narratives and Collins&#8217;s surreal, deep, and uniquely catchy songwriting&#8211; combined make for a moving night of heartfelt storytelling. You won&#8217;t want to miss this collaborative song swap-style show infused with a decade of friendship and mutual musical admiration. Wes Collins writes songs that dig deep and go to uncertain, sometimes scary places. Come for a haunting melody and some intricate fingerpicking and stay for the wit and deep literary intelligence. There is always more to&#160;find in a Wes Collins song. A former librarian and avowed record nerd, Wes can imitate the sound of outmoded computer voice simulations. He hasn&#8217;t found a way to make that pay yet. &#160; Jaimee Harris&#8217;s sophomore effort, 'Boomerang Town,' marks a bold step forward for this country-folk-leaning singer-songwriter. It is an arresting, ambitious song-cycle that explores the generational arc of family, the stranglehold of addiction, and the fragile ties that bind us together as Americans. &#160; &#160;]]></description>

She spent her formative years in southern West Virginia where she literally LIVED inside a music school. Deeply incapable of leaving the Appalachian mountains, but needing an escape from her 6,000 person hometown, she landed right around the bend in Asheville, NC.&#160; When McKinney isn&#8217;t on stage you might find her teaching music lessons at LEAF Global Arts, working shows at The Orange Peel, or at lock on the rugby pitch.&#160; McKinney's music genre is about as fluid as the average Asheville resident's sexuality. Her Indie Pop sound is blended with influence from her blues singer mother, a BFA in Jazz, and the 8 year old version of herself that just wants to play classic rock. Although pinning down her genre may be hard, you can consistently expect sad lyrics. You will probably enjoy her lyricism if you are emotionally suppressed and enjoy listening to sad songs to make yourself feel better.&#160;&#160; MAMA is a Soul Shakin' Blues project from Asheville, NC. Fronted by Melissa McKinney, a vocalist known for her raw power, emotional delivery, and genuine connection with her audience, the band is quickly making a name for themselves in the blues world.

                                <description><![CDATA[Tom Hamilton's guiding creative principle is very simple: he doesn't like to repeat himself artistically.For the Philadelphia-based singer/songwriter andguitarist, this mindset stems from a deep-seated motivation to keep pushing himself as an artist &#8212;to delve into different lyrical themes and musical detours, to explore potentially uncomfortable and unfamiliar emotional places."That's a thrilling prospect,&#8221; says Hamilton. &#8220;To find the deeper things inside and to open up those doors that I didn't even know were there."As founding member of Brothers Past, American Babies, Joe Russo&#8217;s Almost Dead, Ghost Light and Billy and The Kids, Hamiltonhas written/recorded roughlya dozen albums and EPs and shared the stage with everyone from John Mayer to Bob Weir to Billy Strings.Hamilton&#8217;s debut record as a solo artist will be released in late 2025.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Two internationally touring folk/Americana duos, The Rough&#38; Tumble and Flagship Romance combine for a night of high energy, four part harmonies, infectious hooks and a roomful of laughter. It took over 10 years and 500,000 miles of touring the indie/folk circuit and seeing each other&#8217;s posters on venue walls before the two bands met. But it only took one meeting before they&#8217;d started a text thread and concocted the idea of the Rough Romance tour. It&#8217;s a night of open-armed, deep-in-the-belly-songs that are as intimate as they are universal and as delightful as your first cup of coffee. It&#8217;s a jubilant show that has become thehighlight of the year for many people to watch these four accomplished musicians and friends share the stage.&#160; &#160; Flagship Romance is an unforgettable alternative folk duo known for their breathtaking vocal harmonies, inspired songwriting, dynamic live show, and a remarkable on and off-stage chemistry that will leave you with the feeling that you made two new best friends. Married singers-songwriters Shawn Fisher and Jordyn Jackson effortlessly fuse technical precision in their impeccably tight vocal blend with an invigorating sense of emotional abandon in their energetic live persona. Performing each show as if it could be their last, this duo will have you questioning how their larger-than-life sound can come from just two voices and an acoustic guitar. &#160; The Rough &#38; Tumble are a hardscrabble folk/Americana duo, made up of Mallory Graham and Scott Tyler. With accordions and guitars, close-harmonies, ukuleles and oddball percussion, their commanding stage presence and engaging performances have made them a not-to-miss band when they tour through town because you won&#8217;t see the same show twice. They have been embraced by fans for their stark honesty, unique storytelling and well-crafted melodies especially after 2024&#8217;s release, Hymns For My Atheist Sister and Her Friends To Sing Along To, a collection of deeply personal, unifying and uplifting, humanist gospel songs.&#160;]]></description>
