East Nash Grass exemplifies the best of what bluegrass has to oﬀer — as being named the 2024 IBMA [International Bluegrass Music Association] New Artist of the Year would suggest. But their breathtaking talent as singers, instrumentalists, and composers is just the beginning. While other acts chase their tail in search of nostalgia, the secret to East Nash Grass lies in their unflinching ability to be themselves.
It certainly helps that they are a veritable supergroup of award-winners who have been performing longer than anyone would guess that they’ve been alive. With a lifetime of experience in both new and legacy acts (Dan Tyminski, Tim O’Brien, Sierra Hull, Rhonda Vincent, etc.), the tradition of bluegrass is fundamental to who they are as musicians and performers. Yet it’s their irreverent, adventurous, and audacious tendencies as next-gen performers that light a fire under audiences. Their ability to hone this edge was forged in the crucible of a dive bar outside of Nashville, TN that they all but single-handedly put on the (bluegrass) map during their seven-year weekly residency.
After hundreds of sets (and countless late-night jams), through personnel changes, industry changes, and a never-ending string of unprecedented world events, East Nash Grass has coalesced into the hair-raising ensemble of Harry Clark [mandolin], Cory Walker [banjo], James Kee [guitar], and IBMA 2025 Fiddle Player of the Year Maddie Denton [fiddle]. Their love of both bluegrass and the absurd can be felt in both their live shows and on their new album “All God’s Children” (Mountain Fever, 2025). Much like watching a bowling ball and feather fall together, expectations of what should and shouldn’t work are challenged as the paradox of authenticity is revealed. Shock leads to excitement as risks keep listeners on the edge of their seats and irrefutable mastery drives home that this is no mere imitation of bluegrass: this IS bluegrass.

John Benjamin Davis (Fiddle): Known as one of Chattanooga’s most versatile and original players weaving intricate melodies and soaring improvisations that anchor the band’s folk and bluegrass core.
Patrick Dugan (Mandolin): Dugan’s nimble, percussive mandolin picking provides a crucial layer of syncopation and sparkle, bridging the gap between traditional Appalachian music and modern rock dynamics.
Taylor Brown (Upright Bass): Brown lays down the essential groove with a thunderous, yet agile, upright bass foundation, driving the band’s energetic rhythms.

Redd & The Paper Flowers
Appalachian Folk / Livingroom Folk band from Knoxville, Tennessee with members Katie Adams (upright bass), Colleen d’Alelio (cello), Gavin Gregg (mandolin), and Redd Daugherty (guitar).
The band met in 2022 through a local open mic and mutual friends, and they just released their debut album, Appalachian Bell Jar, a record that is a testament to East Tennessee and greater Appalachia’s beauty, struggles with government support, and their experiences in the area.
The band has grown extremely close over the past three years, particularly in touring: In 2025 alone, they’re on the road for 22 weeks out of the year. The band also grew through the tragedy of Redd Daugherty losing her dear friend, Jason Cooper, who owned a local Knoxville music store named Rush’s Music, which has been a staple of the Knoxville music community since 1958. From Coop’s tragic death, Redd found out he willed her the business, his estate, and his dog, Ando, who passed in April 2024. Redd owns, operates, and works at Rush’s alongside Katie and Gavin during their off time from touring, which services over 90 schools.
Their second album, Dead Little Thing, will highlight the struggles from this experience and is set to release January 2026.

From their countless, electric sold out shows at beloved Chattanooga venues to captivating crowds of over 3,000 at Riverfront Nights in July of 2025, Dock Party has quickly become a house-hold name among the Scenic City and beyond. Since their forming in 2023 after a high school party taking place on an actual dock, Dock Party has surged into an indie powerhouse of a band, self-releasing 2 studio EPs in 2024, and their most recent self titled album, Dock Party, in May of 2025. The opening track on the album, Drugstore, sets the tone for the band’s most refined and explosive project yet. The group’s sound is constantly evolving; their 20 released songs range from driving indie rock to gentle synth melodies. The boys show no signs of slowing down as they are continuing to book shows among the Gig City. Countless hours in their home and dorm studios are fueling a powerful and promising wave of new sounds.
