Travis Frye & Blue Mountain Saturday, December 5, 2026

Travis Frye & Blue Mountain is a multi-generational bluegrass band that honors the Appalachian roots of the music while adding a modern twist! With members spanning from Virginia to North Carolina, the band incorporates spirited fiddle, and banjo tunes along with modern selections from country, bluegrass, and gospel traditions, as well as original material. The band has performed on historic radio and television shows such as The Merry-Go-Round in Mount Airy, NC, the Blueridge Backroads in Galax, Virginia, and multiple appearances on PBS's Song of the Mountains in Marion, Virginia. They have also had the honor of playing for the 75th anniversary of the Blue Ridge Parkway at Appalachian State University. The band has shared the stage with Big Country Bluegrass, the Steeldrivers, Lou Reid and Carolina, Dain and Brooke Aldridge, Marty Raybon and Full Circle, Sammy Shelor, and Terry Beaucom. Members include Mount Airy's Travelin' Travis Frye on guitar, Hersie McMillian of Asbury, NC on banjo, Henry Mabe of Walnut Cove, NC on fiddle, Doug Joyce of Stuart, VA on bass, and Mount Airy's Tim Frye, host of Mountain Morning and Mountain Midday on WPAQ on mandolin.
