Suns of Stars
YMSB & RRE After Party with
Orbiting around Asheville’s grateful music scene since late 2023, Suns Of Stars blends contemporary and traditional bluegrass with a high energy jam style.
At its core lies the trio of Alex Bazemore (guitar), and Asheville’s own Jackson Chisholm (upright bass) and Johnny Humphries (mandolin), son of local Bluegrass legend Don Humphries. As Suns Of Stars has been gathering momentum they’ve picked up Alex Ball (fiddle) and Jason Flournoy (banjo). Suns Of Stars members are all hometown heros in various musical projects around town which has led to great turnout at their shows. That, along with a massive song repertoire and growing list of original music make for a unique performance each time.
… second show
Tan & Sober Gentleman + Desmond Jones
Sat, July 12 / Asheville Music Hall
Tan & Sober Gentleman + Desmond Jones
Born and raised in North Carolina, the Tan and Sober Gentlemen began taking in the songs, stories, and tunes that make up their beloved state’s musical tradition before they could talk.
The music of the Carolinas, (and Appalachia in general) stems from the marriage of the Irish fiddle and the African banjo, which first met in the American South before the Revolution. The Tan and Sober Gentlemen aim to bring these traditions full circle. They play Irish tunes, ballads, and pub songs right next to the Appalachian fiddle tunes of their youth, melding the two into what they call “Irish-American hillbilly music.”
Meanwhile, they have earned a reputation as one of the South’s hardest-hitting live acts, playing at blazing tempos and putting every last bit of energy they possess into the show. The result is a raucous celebration of the Carolinas’ Irish heritage, with drinking, dancing, and merriment galore. Since their formation in 2017, the six-piece band has toured the US and Ireland, playing festivals such as MerleFest, Blue Ox Festival, IBMA Bluegrass Live!, Bristol Rhythm and Roots, Appaloosa Festival, FloydFest, Ramble Fest, Shakori Hills (US), and Electric Picnic, Spraoi, and the world’s largest festival of Irish traditional music, the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann (Ireland). In January of 2024, in their home of Alamance County, they sold out their show at the Haw River Ballroom, recording a live album with a crowd of 800 people. “Live at the Haw River Ballroom” was released in February 2025. They released their sophomore record, Regressive Folk Music, in June 2022, and their debut record, Veracity, was named by Shite’n’Onions as one of the five best Celtic punk records of 2019 and 2020.
