Featured Artists - 2019
Jeff Little Trio
With few exceptions, the piano does not play a prominent part in Appalachian or Americana music, and is rarely the lead instrument. But Jeff Little is an exception – and a remarkable one.His distinctive two-handed style, much influenced by the mountain flat-picked guitar tradition, is breathtaking in its speed, precision and clarity.

Piney Woods Boys
Members of the Piney Woods Boys came of age in the 1970s at the tail end of a musical era. As teenagers, they sought out the “real sounds” of community music that could still be heard at family parties, dances, and churches.
The musicians they learned from possessed a regional style of playing that pre-dated the Great Homogenization of the recording industry, before “old-time” and “bluegrass” split into two camps.
Today you can hear that “real sound” in the Piney Woods Boys’ music—Piedmont fiddle tunes, mountain gospel harmonies, and string band blues.
Sunday @ 11:00 to 11:45
