July 30, 2024 Randy Steele
Randy Steele is an award winning banjo pickin’
singer/songwriter from Chattanooga, Tennessee. A career firefighter who picked up
the banjo to decompress and pass the time at the fire station, Randy’s creative music ranges from character based narratives to deeply personal & revelatory.
Emotionally powerful, Steele can wake you up with a
hard-drivin’ song, draw you in with deep lyrics, & have you laughing (or crying)
with a compelling confession. Randy’s high-energy bluegrass band, High Cold Wind, brings out the best in his charisma and superb storytelling. They independently released a new 5-song self-titled EP August 25.

July 23, 2024 String Roots Trio
These regional bluegrass veterans--
at least a couple of whom played on Red Barn Radio 15 years ago-- have been playing together for nearly a decade. Before they got together ten years ago, each player had honed their craft drawing upon what they could learn from the standout bluegrass pickers of their time.
They call themselves String Roots Trio, they are
based in the Red River Gorge area of Kentucky and play their music with an Appalachian flavor. The group consists of Mike Creech on the guitar and vocals,
Jimmy Smith on the banjo and vocals, Holly Creech Smith on vocals, and Terri Powell on the bass. We look forward to having you here with us for an evening
of music and conversation with String Roots Trio!

July 16, 2024 Maygen & The Birdwatcher
It’s been quite a stir for
the Minnesota progressive folk-rock-country sextet Maygen & The Birdwatcher. In late 2021 they released their debut full-length
album, Moonshine – (which Americana UK wrote is “stunning”) –
earning them Midwest Country Music Awards for Album of the Year and Americana
Artist of the Year) and landed opportunities to join festival stages with bands
like Old Crow Medicine Show, Paul Cauthen, Grace Potter, and The Ozark Mountain
Daredevils.
They continued the
momentum in late 2022, releasing Moonshine’s companion EP, with
the “lively and charming” (Adventures in Americana) Bootleggin’ At The
Flower Shoppe which took home a 2nd round of wins for Album of the Year
and Americana Artist of the Year at the Midwest Country Music Organization’s
annual awards show.
The mood-boosting
Americana band adventurously blurs the sounds of country, bluegrass, folk, and
blues. Lead singers Maygen Lacey, and Noah Neumann intentionally work to draw
on their vastly different musical influences and vocal styles to bring a fresh
and unexpected mix of songs to light. From beauty to grit, sadness to
silliness, the common thread is that this crew loves music, and playing it
together, and it shows.

Will Overman, a great singer-songwriter from Virginia, is back to play the Red Barn stage
after a couple years have passed. Will works hard and takes the business of
music very seriously. In fact, I've heard Will say that 80% of his time is
spent planning, promoting, reaching out, so that he can make things work and
have the ability to get around the region and share what he does.
Since we last saw Will, he's released a live EP and also a new
single called "Virginia
is for Lovers".
