SUMMARY:Michael Reno Harrell
DESCRIPTION:Michael Reno Harrell is an award winning songwriter\, as well as a veteran storyteller and entertainer\, and he’s from the South. One could compare Michael’s performances to his granddaddy’s pocket knife: well worn and familiar feeling\, but razor sharp\, and with a point. His original songs and stories have been described as “Appalachian grit and wit” but\, as his writing shows\, Michael’s awareness is much broader than the bounds of his boyhood home or even the Southern Experience. Between the approachable\, feel-good nature of his music\, and vivid story-telling that leaves you smiling\, Michael creates an auditory experience that has to be witnessed in person.

SUMMARY:Jackson Grimm & Friends
DESCRIPTION:Jackson Grimm marries folk pop melodies with the lonesome sound of traditional Appalachian music. In a region with a strong music culture\, it is no surprise that Grimm’s songwriting is representative of his musical birthplace: Asheville\, NC. His songs run the gambit from an homage to a traditional country waltz in “If Not For You”\, an unrequited love song driven by a Beatles-esque melody in “I’d Hold You (But I Don’t Wanna Hold You)”\, to a drunken partygrass song à la Old Crow Medicine Show in “Last Train Home.”
