Founder of the Alternative Guitar Summit—hailed by Pat Metheny as a premier forum for innovative guitar music—Harrison also composes for chamber ensembles and film. His project Free Country reimagines country and Appalachian music through jazz, connecting African, African American, and Eurocentric traditions in a sound called “the most singular vision you’ll hear all year” (London Times). Drawing from fiddle tunes, spirituals, and classics by Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard, Harrison uses these pieces as launching pads for improvisation, expanding jazz’s boundaries across three albums released over 22 years.

Americana artist Nate Currin’s ninth album Ghost Town was written after a massive breakup. It’s a road album that delves into folk-rock, bluegrass, honkytonk blues and some cosmic country. It’s about physically travelling the nation and the journey of life, with its ups and downs, triumphs and heartbreak… but this album is mostly about heartbreak and the memories that haunt you in the aftermath of loss.
Currin‘s put in two decades of hard road-dogging, playing over 900 shows, occasionally living out of a motorhome and covering more than 800,000 miles of highway. He’s shared stages with heavy-hitters like Butch Walker, Neon Trees, Blues Traveler, Shawn Mullins, Alabama, Hunter Hayes and Jars of Clay. He’s landed in the Top 20 on the iTunes / Apple charts. He’s earned five International Music & Entertainment Awards (IMEA), including multiple Songwriter of the Year honors, as well as nominations for Indie Music Awards and a Georgia Music Award. | ||

As a duo, they favor Kristin’s originals, peppered with the bluegrass and old-time standards that Critter grew up on.

This electric tribute to all things Bowie features the internationally acclaimed Shannon Conley with a house band led by Tony and Grammy-nominated music director of Broadway’s Hedwig and Stereophonic, Justin Craig.
