SUMMARY:Alma Russ
DESCRIPTION:Alma (say it like Alamo) is a vocalist\, songwriter\, and musician out of Western North Carolina. She plays patchwork music: country\, folk\, and Appalachian roots sewn together to make something unique. Songwriting is cheaper than therapy\, and old songs make her happy. She fell in love with mountain culture and heritage – especially the music Ð at a young age. She remembers frolicking around the yard as a kid\, singing Scotch-Irish murder ballads\, passed down through generations; songs about old-true loves and murders. Music has taken her lots of places\, from the hometown bars\, to church\, to the highway. Music continues to give her stories to tell.

SUMMARY:Nicholas Edward Williams
DESCRIPTION:Nicholas Edward Williams is a folk musician\, multi-instrumentalist\, and self-described flame-keeper Ñ a man who has spent years on the road tracing American music back to its roots and playing it forward. Blending Piedmont blues fingerpicking\, old-time\, ragtime\, and early country with a voice that rolls like a mountain stream\, Williams doesn’t simply perform these songs Ñ he resurrects them. His critically acclaimed recordings have charted internationally\, and as the host of the roots music history podcast American Songcatcher\, his dedication to preservation runs bone-deep. Live\, it’s the intimacy that leaves its mark: one voice\, a well-worn guitar\, and a set of songs that feel like they’ve always existed.

SUMMARY:Michael Flynn
DESCRIPTION:Michael Flynn is an Americana-adjacent singer/songwriter based in western NC. Though some have likened his style to that of the ÒNeo-popÓ genre. Either way\, his music is appealing in its ability to take you on a journey. One moment you will be chuckling along with a quirky turn of phrase and the next closing your eyes to the somber tones flowing from both piano and FlynnÕs vocals. There is no denying FlynnÕs talent\, with songs featured on shows like GreyÕs Anatomy and Shameless\, and not to mention his numerous awards. Lyrically strong\, intimately beautiful\, and full of varied song craft\, FlynnÕs music is playful even when it hurts\, bright when itÕs bruising\, and as catchy as it is clever. In short\, his music is like life\, a full experience.

SUMMARY:Darrin Hacquard
DESCRIPTION:Darrin Hacquard is a balladeer of bad decisions hailing from Huntington\, WV. Darrin is the soundtrack to doing something youÕll regret\, and the repercussions youÕve earned. From being in a string band with acclaimed singer-songwriter John R. Miller\, to stints in county lock-up and rehab\, to grinding his songs out on the Appalachian songwriter circuit\, DarrinÕs latest record ÒWeights & MeasuresÓ is the culmination of hard-living\, harder work\, and honest autobiographical songwriting that admits to life experiences many have but are seldom shared.
