Suzie Brown
Saturday, July 18, 2026 – 7:30 pm
A 1970s-inspired folk-pop songwriter, Suzie Brown responds to the seismic changes of the modern moment with 2022’s “Some See The Flowers”. Written somewhere between her shifts as an Advanced Heart Failure/Heart Transplant cardiologist at Vanderbilt Hospital and her responsibilities as a mother of two, it’s a record about resilience, resolve, and maintaining perspective in difficult times. It also finds Brown—an award-winning musician whose songs have earned recognition from the International Songwriting Competition, Forbes Magazine, People Magazine, and the long-running television program CBS This Morning—nodding to the soul singers, folk artists, and roots-rockers who came before her.

Don Henry
Saturday, September 26, 2026 – 7:30 pm
Grammy Award winner Don Henry‘s songs have been recorded by legends like Ray Charles, Patti Page and Conway Twitty, by country crooners like Gene Watson, John Conlee and B.J. Thomas, and by young hit makers of today like Blake Shelton, Lonestar and Miranda Lambert ………and the list goes on. The wit and wisdom of Don’s songs are widely renowned whether it’s campfire favorites, the hilarious “B.F.D.” and biker lullaby “Harley”, to the wonderfully poignant tribute to Martin Luther King “Beautiful Fool”, and of course his Grammy Award winning country classic “Where’ve You Been”. In addition to a Grammy, Kathy Mattea’s version of “Where’ve You Been” won Don (and co-writer Jon Vezner) song of the year honors from ACM (Academy of Country Music), CMA (Country Music Association) and NSAI (Nashville Songwriters Association International). “Where’ve You Been” was the first song in country music history to be awarded all four honors in the same year!

Lynne Hanson
Saturday, October 10, 2026 – 7:30 pm
Too tough for folk and too blues-influenced for country, Lynne Hanson’s brand of porch music with a little red dirt can turn on a dime from a sunshine, blue sky ballad to a full on thunderstorm of gritty Americana swamp from one song to the next. Her hard living music has garnered her the nickname “Canada’s Queen of Americana.” And while her deep, bluesy croon has drawn comparisons to Lucinda Williams and Gillian Welch, it’s the poetry of her lyrics that really sets her apart. Winner of two Canadian Folk Music Awards, Hanson is known for her high energy, roots guitar driven live performances, whether playing solo or with her band the Good Intentions. She has an uncanny way of connecting with her audience with an authenticity that is as entertaining as it is disarming.
