Ryan & Elizabeth - bluegrass/folk music duo from Knoxville, Tennessee.
Great pitch and just the right amount of vibrato from the fellow walking by on the next to last word of the song! We had a great time playing at the Bradbury Community Center last night for our first show of 2026!

Nothing quite like jamming on a cool fall evening high atop Jerusalem Ridge, only a few steps from Bill Monroe’s childhood home. Jasper Beatty from The Rosine Sound on the Mandolin.
