Dan Tyminski Band
Throughout his 30+ year career, Dan Tyminski has left his mark in every corner of modern music. Tyminski’s voice famously accompanies George Clooney’s performance of the Stanley Brother’s classic song, “I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow,” in the film, Oh Brother, Where Art Thou bringing bluegrass into focus for millions of new fans. His vocal collaboration with Swedish DJ Avicii on the song “Hey, Brother” was a global smash, having been streamed more than one billion times to date.
Dan has also contributed guitar and/or harmony to projects by Martina McBride, Reba McEntire, Brad Paisley, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Kenny Chesney, LeAnn Rimes, Aaron Lewis and Rob Thomas, to name a few. In addition to his highly successful solo career, Dan Tyminski has played guitar and mandolin for Alison Krauss & Union Station since 1994. His unmatched instrumental skills and burnished, soulful tenor voice have been key components of the band.
Dan has been honored with 14 Grammy Awards, was named Male Vocalist of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association four times and was recognized as 2004’s Male Vocalist of the Year by the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America.
In 2022, Tyminski released the EP “One More Time Before You Go: A Tribute to Tony Rice” featuring guest appearances by Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, Jerry Douglas, Todd Phillips, Sam Bush, Dailey & Vincent. (Listen HERE)
“God Fearing Heathen” was released on June 23, 2023. The lead track is a bluegrass treatment to his smash hit with Avicii, ”Hey Brother”. This first ever album of original bluegrass compositions debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Bluegrass Albums Chart.
Featuring rollicking, rambunctious, and good-time vibes, Tyminski’s newest full-length album “Live from the Ryman” was released on August 16, 2024. Featuring the instrumental “Cumberland Gap,” the Jimmy Martin tribute, “Ode to Jimmy”, the impact of PTSD on returning soldiers in “Silence in the Brandy” and cult classic “I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow,” fans are already clamoring for more from the bluegrass maestro.

Zach Russell
For decades now, musicians and songwriters have flocked to Nashville, Tennessee, in hopes of starting or fortifying their careers in the music industry. Zach Russell, who, subconsciously or not, bucks a number of trends in today’s music world, found the opposite to be true. It wasn’t until moving away from Music City U.S.A. that Russell inked his first record deal with tenacious indie label Thirty Tigers.
For seven years in Nashville, Russell studied how fellow writers and performers were approaching their craft, even spending a stint on the road as Tyler Childers’ merchandise manager. Getting a firsthand look at precisely what it takes to chase down greatness, Russell believed he could achieve it as well. But ultimately, taking a breather from Nashville brought clarity—and lots of songs—to the East Tennessee-based artist, and got the ball rolling on what would become Russell’s debut full-length album, Where The Flowers Meet The Dew, out now!

Kris Truelsen and the Farm and Fun Time House Band
Kris Truelsen has spent the better part of the last two decades touring across the U.S., honing his craft as a songwriter and performer. With his latest project fronting the Farm and Fun Time House Band, he leans into the rock n’ roll side of country music. It’s rowdy, loose and unmistakably Kris. The band features an all star lineup including Nick Lawrence (guitar), Rebecca Branson Jones (pedal steel), Sarah Griffin (bass), and Levi Trent (drums).
