Tina Hashemi is a jazz singer who recently graduated from the University of Virginia, where she studied music performance and jazz voice under Stephanie Nakasian, Danielle Wertz, and John D’earth. In her final year, she completed an album of originals and standards entitled Nobody’s Heart. Tina continues to perform regularly with her own band and other musicians throughout Virginia at a variety of venues. She swings and sings with a pure, unaffected tone that brings a sweet sensibility to the classic jazz standards and repertoire of the Great American Songbook. tinahashemimusic.com

Wicked Olde. Our sound may best be described as eclectic. Very, very eclectic. And old. From Big Walter Horton to Hank Williams, Sr., Jackson Browne to Bill Monroe, George Gershwin to Gordon Lightfoot, Bluegrass to Blues, Pop to Folk, Old-timey and Appalachian standards that'll make you nostalgic, to lively Celtic jigs and reels that'll blow your socks off.

Tara Mills Band. Inspired by the Blue Ridge Mountains and the rich musical traditions tied to them, Tara Mills describes her music as, ” original mountain americana;” an original blend of folk, bluegrass, and americana. Writing and singing most of her life, it wasn’t long before Tara picked up a guitar and taught herself how to express the melodies in her head through her songs and hauntingly beautiful lyrics. Influenced by bluegrass, old country, and traditional mountain folk, she creates an original sound that captures true human feeling and emotion. taramillsmusic.com

Sunday

Blue Suede Sun. If you’re in the mood for live music that is a little different from what you usually hear, then  you will want to hire Blue Suede Sun. We are a three-piece Rockabilly band with a little  touch of twang and a slightly more modern rock and roll edge thrown in for freshness.  From Steve Wyse's twangy vocals and the clicking rhythm of his slap bass style, to Andrew  Mullins' edgy rock and roll guitar, to the vocals and hard driving unique drumming style of  Rod Hyner, when it comes to Rockabilly music, this band is the real deal. The music is  timeless yet sounds fresh and new.  www.facebook.com/bluesuedesun

Otra Vez inspires the listener with Argentine tango dance classics, existential waltzes, and original compositions. Featuring David Jacobs on drums, Miles Pearce on guitar, and Matty Metcalfe on accordion, Otra Vez was born out of a chance musical encounter on the dusty streets of central Appalachia.

The Judy Chops. From deep in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, The Judy Chops are redefining the ‘Americana’ landscape with their genre-defying approach to roots music. Formed in 2008 this musical collective of family and friends has evolved from hometown heroes into one of Virginia’s hottest live acts, wowing audiences with their deft musicianship and high-energy live shows. Their fusion of modern and vintage musical styles, blending elements of swing, blues, rock, and soul has been a fan favorite yearly at Red Wing Roots Music Festival. Winners of 2018’s Rock’n to LOCKN’ competition, The Judy Chops have also been featured at Devil’s Backbone Hoopla, & Front Porch Fest, plus the group will be making their Floydfest debut this summer, with a brand new full length album coming soon! #chopsdontstop www.thejudychops.com
