2024 guest artists
Week 1 - January 19-21, 2024
FROG HOLLER
Hailing from Berks County Pennsylvania,
Frog Holler are those “real-deal story tellers” bringing music out of a “rare place of honesty” … these “neo-hillbillies with a twist, play mountain blues and country as accessible and modern as the most hummable pop”.
You’ve Got A Friend In Frog Holler!
Week 2 - January 26-28, 2024
I DRAW SLOW
Dublin Ireland roots band I Draw Slow
are “a confident and distinctive blend of American bluegrass and Irish sensibility” whose “handcrafted songwriting, sweet harmonies” and “infectious melodies” are “spellbinding”.
Their music and their shows are as gritty as they are beautiful!
