Location: Unum Stage
Lou Wamp's slide rules! Instrumental prowess and great stage presence showcase fine original material based in bluegrass, swing, & swampy blues. From haunting to barn-burning, the show features Lou's incredible dobro and slide talents plus a band of players that can go there with him. Like Brad Frazier on guitar and vocals, who definitely has what it takes to be a rising star. At just 25 years old, he already pens heart-grabbing lyrics and composes tasty hooks like a seasoned pro. From the first note, his voice commands attention from anywhere within earshot. Wamp's band of hot pickers also includes East Tennessee Fiddle Champion Meredith Goins, Jonathan Massengale on banjo like no one else, and Lynn Wamp on bass. With a focus on original instrumental acoustic music and smooth vocal numbers within a variety of genres, Bluetastic Fangrass is too broad to stereotype but sure to appeal to many audiences. And if it’s true “there’s no money above the fourth fret” then these guys and gals are bound for the poorhouse! But what a ride!
