Duane Betts & His Friends
With generationally-deep musical roots, Duane Betts & His Friends are a superhighway of talent driven by a powerful trifecta of forces: genetic predisposition, an innate passion to play and perform, and an intrinsic desire to honor and carry on their fathers’ legacies.
Guitarist and singer-songwriter Duane Betts will be joined by drummer Cody Dickinson, guitarist Luther Dickinson, multi-instrumentalist Jackie Greene, bassist Berry Duane Oakley, guitarist Johnny Stachela, and vocalists Lamar Williams Jr. and Nicki Bluhm for an
an evening of collaboration, inspiration and improvisation.
Nicki Bluhm
A San Franciscan now calling Tennessee home, Nicki Bluhm possesses a modern, clear-eyed perspective that grabs the heart and keeps you holding on to every word. Bluhm hit the national circuit with Nicki Bluhm and The Gramblers. In 2017, she made the decision to leave California to forge a career as a solo artist in Nashville. Her ensuing solo album, To Rise You Gotta Fall, plumbed the depths of hard goodbyes and hopeful beginnings.
Her fresh release, Avondale Drive, is a masterful exploration of what it means to be fully yourself, rather than a vessel for the expectations of others. Following appearances and collaborations with artists such as Phil Lesh, Dawes, The Band of Heathens, Little Feat and The Infamous Stringdusters. Bluhm’s creative confidence is well-won, and her authentic voice and songwriting continue to steal hearts.
