About REMEDY TREE
One of the Southeast’s hottest rising groups, Remedy Tree, founded by Gabriel and Abigail Acevedo, features a solid indie-folk sound and has performed with Peter Rowan, Rhonda Vincent, Ricky Skaggs, Della Mae, The Steel Drivers, and more.
An original music band at heart, Remedy Tree combines the love for bluegrass, an Appalachian old-time spirit, and the folk melodies that started it all, creating a genuinely unique Americana experience that provides a fresh perspective into where bluegrass is headed in the future. Remedy Tree recently welcomed Bryce Griffin (Mandolin) and Nathan Beaumont (banjo) into the band, some of the region’s best players, further blossoming the Remedy Tree sound.
Born in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, and raised in rural Umatilla, Gabriel Acevedo’s Puerto Rican heritage and upbringing provide an outsider’s approach to the genre. Abigail Acevedo was raised in folk and old-time music circles and traveled with her family band throughout her teen years.
