BROKEN STRING BAND

Hailing from the Classic City – Athens, GA – the Broken String Band is re–defining what it means to play folk music. With a live performance that combines alluring, hard- hitting lyricism and iconic harmonies with thrashing banjo, stand–up bass, fiddle, drums, and the occasional accordion or flute, the Broken String Band encapsulates the feel–good vibe of acoustic jamming with a dash of classical culture thrown in for good measure. Though the group fits the appearance of a traditional folk act as they take the stage, great surprise lies in their unexpectedly electrifying style of performing. 

Vilai Harrington & The Hamptones
Originally from the sandhills of South Carolina, Vilai Harrington grew up firmly planted in his soulful country upbringing. Complemented by The Hamptones consisting of Josh Riley on bass, Adam Bachman on dobro, Joe Tamburro on percussion, and Jake Garrett on pedal steel and guitar (each representing different regions in the state), the group captures their Appalachian musical roots and puts a modern Americana spin on it. The results are folk songs with a unique swagger and country twang driven by emotive and satisfying vocals.
