Description

Delta-blues one-woman-band meets quasi-electric funky bluegrass at Northwest Arkansas' premier outdoor venue. On Rachel Ammons: "Brilliant musician. She has unique talent and creativity that make her shows an unforgettable experience," "A one-woman force of a band that you'll NEVER forget," "A spectacular, magical, talented creature. Rachel plays music from deep within her heart and soul." Such praise only begins to scratch the surface of identifying the singular powerhouse that is Rachel Ammons. It's a wonder to behold and must be seen to be understood. Rachel will be joined by CromGrass! Cromgrass is a quasi-electric, genre-hopping string band experience composed of Bill Smylie and McCormick Carlson (Monk is King), and Jackson Diner and Jonathan DerGazarian (Deep Sequence). Drawing from a wide variety of influences, Cromgrass is not any single thing. By modernizing traditional aesthetics, an innovative blend of old and new has emerged, as unique in its orchestration as its delivery. Fretless banjo, electric guitars, bass, and vocal harmonies make up the primary instrumentation, but all members are multi-instrumentalists, and alternate orchestration is commonplace. Deepwood Media are a group of Northwest Arkansas artists dedicated to sharing happiness through the creation and distribution of digital media.
