Hustle Souls is an Asheville, NC based band who blend Retro-Soul, New Orleans Brass Music and Americana. American Blues Scene called Hustle Souls a  "generation-jumping mashup of new school second line funk with old school vintage soul." Bluestown Music described the music as “intimate soul…with a Curtis Mayfield like warmth.” They were recently named one of Music Connection Magazine’s “Hot 100 Live Unsigned Artists & Bands”


Overflowing with energy and spontaneity; roaring B3 organ and jubilant brass are balanced with 3-part vocal harmony and a lust for songwriting that  has been praised as “worthy of being included in that brilliant soul music canon, a heritage that features some of the greatest performers and writers that have ever graced this earth…” Aldora Britian Records. 


In 2024 Hustle Souls released their vinyl debut and lead singer Billy Litz was invited to perform at the NAMM show in Anaheim CA as an artist representing the prestigious Santa Cruz Guitar Company. Hustle Souls has been booked on major festival line ups such as Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion, Shakori Hills Grassroots Music Festival etc. and have shared the stage with legends including sit ins with the likes of Kofi Burbridge and support slots for bands like Dumpstaphunk.

Columbia, SC’s George Fetner and the Strays have steadily gained attention from music-lovers and musicians alike. Culling influences from nine proficient performers, the band has developed a soulful, southern sound rooted in rhythm and blues, improvisatory rock, and captivating musical left turns.

After polishing their large, seasoned sound with festival appearances at Fall for Greenville, St. Pat’s in Five Points, the Jam Room Music Festival, JerryFest and others, GFATS released “Merry Run Around” in 2021, a live album showcasing brassy takes on Grateful Dead favorites, “both utterly unlike anything you would ever hear at a Dead concert and yet wonderfully, soothingly familiar to fans and newcomers alike” (Free Times).

GFATS released their debut LP “Longer Like This” in the summer of 2020. Recorded at the Jam Room to tape and pressed to vinyl: “the band’s joyful vibe and experimental sound spill out from the speakers, filling the room and pulling the listener to their feet in an impromptu dance party with nine of Columbia’s most daring musical exhibitionists” (The State).

Released in 2018, their self-titled debut EP featured for the first time an extended lineup of musicians, “all of whom come together for a rollicking, raucous (and brassy!) joyride” (SC Music Guide). That extended lineup now is more common than not, adding percussion, horns, and keyboards to the two-guitar quartet. “Whereas most local acts would have turned this expansion into a trainwreck, Fetner expertly guided his ensemble into something that sounded, in fact, bigger than its parts, evoking the stadium grandeur of U2, the worldly musings of Peter Gabriel, and, yes, the loose-limbed feelgoods of Phish” (Free Times). 

Catherine Allgrim - bass trombone
Moses Andrews, III - keyboards, vocals
Davis Bowers - saxophone
Craig Butterfield - bass
Anthony Charles - guitar, vocals
Matt Fenech - drums
George Fetner - guitar, vocals
Will Melven - trumpet
Jeff Vaughn - percussion

The Knotty G’s goal is simple: to create music and an experience at their shows they feel is genuine. Gritty yet funky performances fuse with the band’s jovial nature and invite audiences to take part in the revelatory power of music while still managing to tap into plenty of fun. Though The Knotty G’s are known to approach genres in unconventional ways, doing so with great intention takes their soul-soaked mountain music to a special and reverent place, a genuine place, and a place where by the end of the show, you feel as though you’ve reconnected with some old friends.

In the short time they've been a team, they have amassed an impressive list of stages and festivals, including: the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival, The Blue Ridge Pride Festival, Strangecreek Campout, Wormtown Music Festival, and The Ladybug Festival.

In 2019, The Knotty G’s released their first album, One Small Glove, which encompassed the Americana roots they have in their music and in true Knotty fashion, the joking flair that accompanies their performances. 

In December 2021, they released “Set Sail,” their first full length studio album recorded with GRAMMY winning producer Matt Williams (Travers Brothership, The Get Right Band, Tall Tall Trees, Jonathan Scales) at The Eagle Room located just outside of Asheville. The album showcases genre jumping compositions tied together with the same singular soul-soaked thread that weaves it’s way through all of their music.

We are beyond grateful to live in a county that has such a strong commitment to educating the next generation of musicians and keeping the rich Appalachian culture of music alive.  The Junior Appalachian Musician (JAM) program envisions a world in which all children have the opportunity to experience community through the joy of participating in traditional mountain music together. Their mission is to provide communities with the tools and support they need to teach children to play and dance to traditional old time and bluegrass music. They believe that children who are actively engaged in traditional mountain music are more connected and better prepared to strengthen their communities for future generations.   Jam 4 Jam is an annual benefit concert where the bluegrass greats of our community come to play to raise awareness and funds for the program.  Not only are these musicians volunteering their time, a lot of them are active teachers and mentors within the JAM program.  

This years benefit will be held on Monday, July 1st.  We will kick the evening off with a showcase of current Jam students at 5:30.  Pretty Little Goat will play at 6:15 and the Pisgah Pickers (Woody Platt, Mike Guggino, Mike Ashworth, Bennett Sullivan and Travis Book) with finish the night off.   
All ticket proceeds will go to The Junior Appalachian Musicians of Transylvania County and there will also be a silent auction. 

Table seating is very limited for this show but there is plenty of general admission space available.  The indoor space behind the seated area is available for standing room and the backyard has extra seating available.  You may bring a lawn chair for the backyard area.  The show will go on, rain or shine.

Join us on the Fourth of July for a cookout in Brevard's Backyard with music by Town Mountain and Vaden Landers.  
We will have a buffet with all the cookout essentials: chicken, hot dogs, veggie patties, pasta salad, corn on the cob, watermelon, and sweet treats.  You can purchase a ticket for the buffet as an add on below.  

Raw, soulful, and with plenty of swagger, Town Mountain has earned raves for their hard-driving sound, their in-house songwriting and the honky-tonk edge that permeates their exhilarating live performances, whether in a packed club or at a sold-out festival. The hearty base of Town Mountain's music is the first and second generation of bluegrass spiced with country, old school rock ‘n’ roll, and boogie-woogie. It's what else goes into the mix that brings it all to life both on stage and on record and reflects the group's wide-ranging influences – from the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia and the ethereal lyrics of Robert Hunter, to the honest, vintage country of Willie, Waylon, and Merle.

The Rolling Stone says “Call it an evolution or a revolution but its clear that Town Mountain is at the forefront.” Town Mountain features guitarist and vocalist Robert Greer, mandolinist Phil Barker, fiddler Bobby Britt, and Zach Smith on bass. Town Mountain's album New Freedom Blues (October 2018) is their second consecutive album to debut in the top 10 on the Billboard Bluegrass Chart, and receive multiple mentions by Rolling Stone, No Depression, Music Mecca, and more. Full of new material and featuring several guest artists including Tyler Childers and Miles Miller (Sturgill Simpson, drummer), they prove they have staying power by regularly cranking out authentic hit albums. The impression the band has made on fans is clear through their engagement at top tier festival appearances, and those sweet Spotify streams (30+ million). And if you still can’t get enough of this hard working group, you can look forward to new music in 2022.

Vaden Landers will be opening the show.  Vaden Landers is a 28-yr-old emerging artist from East Tennessee, penning songs that evoke the golden era of country music. With a voice often compared to Hank Sr, this former train-hopper/street-busker has gained a reputation in Asheville NC as one of the city's finest performers. Billed as "The Yodeling Country Bluesman", he possesses a rare authenticity that carries on the classic tradition.
