Her earliest year s in the music industry are represented by the 4 full-length albums and 2 EPs with roots-Americana trio The Stray Birds\, with whom she toured year- round for 7 years throughout USA\, Canada\, and Europe. After this formati ve chapter\, she launched her solo career with her 2019 album Adaptations\ , earning praise from Rolling Stone Country\, NPR Music\, and No Depressio n. Since then\, she has released three more full-length albums  and multi ple singles\, all of which are testaments to her personal reinvention and creative growth. \nEnergized by the spontaneity of live performance and a revelatory pursuit of truth in her lyric writing\, Maya de Vitry returns w ith her fifth full-length album\, All My Faith. Prioritizing presence and grit over studio polish\, she sounds joyously at home in the alt-country a nd indie-folk realms. \nFrom canyons to kitchens\, from cold lakes to high way truck stops\, the songs form a vibrant collage of joy\, sorrow\, and g ut-wrenching honesty. Whether spinning an inspirational tale about hungove r bachelorettes at the Nashville airport or exploring the prison of our ow n adaptations\, de Vitry brings a grounded confidence and quiet charisma r ooted in her belief in the power of song to change us.  \nThe album opens with a joyful surrender to time\, love\, and the unknown in the title tra ck\, “All My Faith.” It expresses a commitment\, not just to a person\ , but to showing up with true engagement in togetherness. At its heart\, t he album reflects on the ways human beings choose to care for one another in myriad forms and on the generative healing and wisdom that emerge from our relationships—with each other and with the natural world. These 10 s ongs are the intoxicating sound of faith in action—a bandleader fully tr usting in her life experiences\, her craft\, her collaborators\, and the m oment. It captures the presence she has been cultivating in her live shows \, and hearing it magnified on record is its own revelation. LAST-MODIFIED:20260811T060403Z LOCATION:The Ark\, 316 S.

There\, he encountered folks of all stripes\; and regula rs enthusiastically murmured about his budding musical greatness — There ’s the best songwriter in town! Johnson was a kind of local lore\, a lon g-held family secret\, before the singer finally broke out in 2023 with hi s debut album\, Nothing For Me Please\, at age 50. \nI Hope We Can Still B e Friends is essentially an anthology that bridges Johnson’s earliest da ys as a songwriter with his present-day outlook and abilities. There are s ongs that have been in his setlists for years\, and others that will be ne w to fans. Each of its 11 tracks contains jocular social commentary or lov ingly rendered affairs of the heart.  \nLike John Prine or Kris Kristoffe rson’s country-adjacent sound\, devastating humor and economical profund ity refracted through a barroom’s haze\, the album is filled with easygo ing twang\, sad characters\, universal truths and the absurdity of everyda y life.

Since forming in 1991\, the group has captivat ed audiences with a singular sound that fearlessly crisscrosses genres — blending rock\, jazz\, classical\, and global influences\, with the occas ional surf or spaghetti Western twist for good measure. \nFounded by Paul Richards\, Bert Lams\, and Hideyo Moriya\, CGT emerged from the creative l ineage of guitarist Robert Fripp and quickly built a reputation for precis ion\, interplay\, and adventurous musical exploration. Today\, the trio co ntinues its evolution with Paul Richards\, Bert Lams\, and Chapman Stick p layer Tom Griesgraber\, who joined the group in 2020. Griesgraber’s addi tion expanded the ensemble’s sonic palette with deep bass textures\, orc hestral layering\, and new harmonic possibilities while preserving CGT’s signature musical language. \nEqually known for dazzling musicianship and genuine connection with audiences\, CGT concerts blend intricate three-pa rt counterpoint with storytelling\, humor\, and an inviting stage presence that makes listeners feel like participants rather than spectators.

Some might even call him a “tour de force” as his songs pull n o punches in evoking the demons with which he has wrestled through much of his life.  \nThe GRAMMY-nominated multi-platinum singer/songwriter’s e arly releases\, I’m About To Come Alive\, The Sound Of A Million Dreams\ , I’m A Fire and Fighter\, ignited his reputation as an innovator and cr eative risk-taker yet left Nail feeling restless. This led to the departur e of the only record company home he’d ever known\, MCA Nashville\, wher e he’d formed friendships that endure even now. Through dealing with his own journey of mental health and the feeling of needing to “rebel again st what people expect you to be\,” Nail began making his most “organic ” work to date\, David Nail & The Well Ravens\, with Jason Hall and Andr ew Petroff. That project liberated Nail and propelled him into his next ad venture. Writing solo for the next few months led to his debut solo indepe ndent EP Oh\, Mother\, a reflective piece of work. Of the title track\, Ro lling Stone noted that “the song creeps in like a sunrise — quiet\, re strained cello and keys are the only underpinning for Nail’s powerful vo cals at first. But then it slowly builds to something more massive and maj estic.” That release was followed by Bootheel 2020 and Bootheel 2021\, p rojects dedicated to the singer/songwriter’s hometown in the “bootheel ” of Missouri. Nail released an EP titled Best of Me in 2023 and the tit le track has seen heavy press support and country radio airplay. 2024 brou ght more touring than ever\, two great single releases “If I Could Call ” and “Why” featuring Aubrie Sellers.  \nNail plans on releasing th e start of an excitingly different and elevated album project this year le aving behind any self-imposed restrictions. In Nail’s own words\, “My philosophy has always been\, I just hope to have a good enough year that I can have a next year while staying as true to myself as I possibly can. ” LAST-MODIFIED:20260817T062511Z LOCATION:The Ark\, 316 S.

Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nThe Bros. Landreth are two-time JUNO Award winners from Winnipeg\, known for t heir blend of guitar-driven\, soulful\, blood harmony roots music. The ban d\, the core of which consists of brothers Dave and Joey Landreth\, has ea rned critical acclaim and a dedicated audience for their heartfelt songs\, inventive musicianship\, and powerful performances. From their early days attending their father’s gigs as babies (“Mom would tuck us into a ba ssinet and slide us under the bar tables\,” says Dave)\, the brothers ha ve spent a lifetime touring rock clubs\, theatres\, and music festivals ac ross North America\, the UK\, Europe\, and Australia\, including stand-out performances at Byron Bay Blues Festival in Australia and Eric Clapton’ s Crossroads Guitar Festival in Los Angeles. In 2023\, a banner year for t he band\, Joey and Dave became Grammy-winning songwriters when Bonnie Rait t’s cover of their song\, Made Up Mind (from their first album\, Let it Lie)\, earned the Grammy for Americana Performance of the Year. The recogn ition was a fitting nod from one of their musical heroes\, as their own mu sic draws inspiration from the well-worn records of their childhood — Bo nnie Raitt’s blues\, Little Feat’s funky country-rock\, Ry Cooder’s eclectic instrumentals\, Lyle Lovett’s twangy traditionalism — culmina ting in a sound that salutes the past while planting its flag firmly in th e present. \nDrawing on the energy of their recent live shows and a newfou nd sense of creative purpose\, The Bros. Landreth returned to the studio f or their fourth full-length album\, Dog Ear. This record captures the spon taneous and collaborative spirit of their touring band\, which includes dr ummer Roman Clarke and producer Murray Pulver\, and marks a new\, more eff ortless approach to songwriting. The band describes the album as a deeply personal and emotionally resonant work\, exploring themes of family and th e quest for stability amidst the itinerant life of a touring musician\, an d says it’s “really about trying to figure out what it means to be a c onsistent force in the lives of the people you care about.” With songs l ike the title track written for their children\, the album captures a raw and focused energy in the studio\, featuring a handful of magical first ta kes and special collaborations with pop vocalist Begonia\, keyboardist Gle nn Patscha\, and a powerful guest vocal performance from their longtime he ro\, Bonnie Raitt\, who appears on two tracks (Knuckles\, Half Moon Eyes).

Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nA si nger-songwriter known for his lyrical acumen and plaintive harmonica style \, Joe Pug dropped out of college and moved to Chicago where he worked as a carpenter before breaking into the city’s music scene. Since 2008 he h as released a string of critically-acclaimed albums and toured heavily in the U.S. and abroad. Paste Magazine wrote of his music: “Unless your sur name is Dylan\, Waits\, Ritter or Prine\, you could face-palm yourself to death trying to pen songs half as inspired.” Additionally\, he is the cr eator and host of the popular podcast The Working Songwriter. \nSoon befor e Willie Watson turned 18\, he met God in an apple orchard. Or at the very least\, he met there a man named Ruby Love\, the older friend of a high-s chool buddy who had an enormous Martin guitar and a seemingly bigger under standing of the American folk songbook. Watson was existentially thirsty: A high-school dropout from upstate New York’s Finger Lakes\, he was fast on his way to his first heartbreak and in a first band that didn’t take itself seriously enough. But that night in an apple orchard that had alwa ys seemed magical\, at a graduation party for one of his bandmates and bes t friends\, Watson and Love sang a few of those old songs together—“Wo rried Man Blues” and “Tennessee Waltz.” It was the first time Watson had cried while singing\, the first time he had made the connection betwe en making music and making sense of his life. He never saw Ruby Love again \, but within months of that foundational 1997 rendezvous\, he met the mus icians with whom he’d soon start Old Crow Medicine Show. Call it revelat ion\, fate\, resurrection\, whatever you will\; for Watson\, more than a q uarter-century later\, it was a duet with the divine.

Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nDan Tyminski was six years old when his parents began taking him to fiddle con tests\, square dances\, and bluegrass festivals across New England. For a young musician who would later become one of the biggest names in modern-d ay bluegrass\, those early experiences were life changing. \n“Watching l ive music always spoke to me much louder than sitting in front of my recor d player\,” he remembers. “I loved it. Wherever music was being played \, I wanted to go watch. Years later\, I still feel that way.” \nThrough out his 30+ year career\, Tyminski has left his mark in every corner of mo dern music. His voice famously accompanies George Clooney’s performance of the Stanley Brothers’ classic song\, “I Am A Man of Constant Sorrow \,” in the film\, Oh Brother\, Where Art Thou? and his vocal collaborati on with Swedish DJ Avicii on the song “Hey Brother” was a global smash \, having been streamed more than a billion times to date. His diverse sol o projects and years of work with Alison Krauss and Union Station have yie lded troves of award-winning music.   \nIn recent years\, Tyminski’s l ive shows with the Dan Tyminski Band have become bluegrass fan favorites a nd are regularly on the must-see lists among music fans of any genre.  \n Over the course of his career\, Tyminski has also evolved into a prolific songwriter\, penning songs with Monty Criswell\, Phillip Lammonds\, Kristi an Bush\, Ashley Monroe\, Chris Stapleton and many others.  \nDan has bee n honored with 14 Grammy Awards and is a four-time Male Vocalist of the Ye ar honoree by the International Bluegrass Music Association.

Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nWith a heavy-duty catalog of new material for a career first double album\, Th e Universal Bubba marks a half dozen releases for folksinger Willi Carlisl e and reaches new heights with the added accelerant of first time producer Tyler Childers. In an all-time DIY effort\, Childers and his band convene d to a makeshift home studio nestled in the Bywater District of New Orlean s for two weeks to cut 17 tracks that expand Carlisle’s sonic scrapbook and capture the off-kilter characters living in his songs.  \n“I think this one goes to outer space\,” says Carlisle. “I think this is the wi dest range of influences that I’ve ever had. It touches on funk\, it tou ches on Americana\, Cajun\, oldtime\, and experimental music.” With Chil ders’ band behind him\, Carlisle embraced the freedom to wander across g enres both familiar and new\, testing out instrumentation and toying with the surreality of traditions being turned on their head. “It feels like getting drunk at the Civil War reenactment\, or cruising at the cattle auc tion\, or doing molly at the square dance\,” says Carlisle. “It’s th e first time I’ve ever used synthesizers and double electric guitars. Th ere’s also more fretless 19th century style banjo on it than any record I’ve ever made.” \nExploration aside\, Carlisle’s mission as a folks inger largely remains the same – documenting the stories and struggles o f the people and balancing the humor and hope of existence. “I want to m ake a universal folk music. Songs for all kinds of weirdos\,” says Carli sle. “With the idea that there is nobody that doesn’t have folk songs and everyone deserves folk songs. I want to write songs that prove the old weird America didn’t go anywhere\, that we are living and dying for it everyday. I believe there’s noble work to do in that context. That if we feel despair\, we don’t need to because there’s so much good work to do.” \nTaking on a project of this size with Tyler Childers as debut pro ducer requires hard work\, camaraderie and supreme self confidence. Undete rred by the challenge and grounded in his beliefs\, Carlisle has proved th at it really does “take a Universal Bubba doin’ it for themselves.” LAST-MODIFIED:20260828T061817Z LOCATION:The Ark\, 316 S.

As one reviewer recently wrote: “PPL’s sound combines sweet memories with edgy\, contemporary muscle. Their vocals are as strong as Kentucky moonshine and the musicianship and performance skills are as sharp as a straight razor”. \nTheir eponymous first album – featuring the Norman Rockwell/Saturday Evening Post cover that introduced fans to PPL’s trademark cowpoke “Sad Luke” – has b een hailed as a “major early influence in the emerging popularity of Cou ntry-Rock music”. Their second effort\, the multi-platinum “Bustin’ Out” brought us the Craig Fuller-penned classic “Amie”\, along with other gems of the genre. With “Two Lane Highway”\, nine more albums an d countless shows\, a legacy has been forged and enriched\, highlighting c ontributions from several noteworthy members\, including original co-found er George Ed Powell\, Cincinnati’s legendary Goshorn Brothers\, Country Hall of Famers Gary Burr and Vince Gill\, award-winning writer Jeff Wilson (3 Top-20 singles)\, top Nashville session vocalist Curtis Wright and a h ost of other guest appearances from Chet Atkins\, Johnny Gimble\, EmmyLou Harris\, David Sanborn\, Eagle Don Felder\, Nicolette Larson\, Rosemary Bu tler\, Jenifer Wrinkle\, Jeff (Birdman) Kirk\, Mat Britain and many more. \nNow in their sixth decade\, Pure Prairie League continues to lead the wa y for the new generation of Country/Rockers such as Keith Urban\, Nickel C reek\, Wilco\, Counting Crows and so many others that cite PPL as a major influence. \nNow\, with the release of their new album “Back On Track” PPL brings it all back home with a dozen new songs that complete the circ le begun in 1970 and continues to this day.

Acclaimed by Rolling Stone and having jammed with a long list o f impressive company (Bob Weir\, Jim James\, Warren Haynes\, John Scofield \, Branford Marsalis\, and many more)\, Holly has established herself as a virtuoso pianist with her own musical voice. \n\nHolly has fostered a str ong sense of identity while musically shapeshifting to the task at hand\, from joining Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh for extended explorations of “D ark Star\,” to recording dance tracks with LP Giobbi. She is a frequent guest of Greensky Bluegrass\, with whom she recorded The Iceland Sessions EP in 2023 as well as appearing on the previous year’s Stress Dreams. He r solo piano arrangements span across genres\, featuring songs from The Na tional and Nine Inch Nails to Phish and the Grateful Dead\, and have been featured in several independent films in addition to opening the door to p erformances at storied venues from Carnegie Hall to Red Rocks. \n\nIn 2015 \, Holly arrived as an exciting outlier on Distillation Of A Dream: The Mu sic Of Phish Reimagined For Solo Piano. A year later\, Better Left Unsung\ , her sophomore release featuring the music of the Grateful Dead\, landed in the top 25 of Billboard’s Classical Album Chart.\n\nHolly co-founded improvisational rock outfit Ghost Light in 2018 with JRAD’s Tom Hamilton with whom she also released an instrumental duo album\, Lacuna\, in 2022. \n\nAfter releasing 2020’s Seeking All That’s Still Unsung (a second reimagining of Grateful Dead staples)\, Holly looks to flip the script onc e more with an upcoming album of original compositions.\n\nFans can count on her musical shapeshifting adventure continuing to cover new ground as s he takes listeners with her into the unknown.

With formidable chops on guitar (she began playing at age 5 ) and piano (she was a guest on Marian McPartland’s Piano Jazz)\, along with a graduate degree in voice performance\, her shows are a one-woman ma ster class in musicianship. Although best known as an acoustic songwriter that came up through coffeehouses and folk festivals\, the Chicago-based a rtist has written songs in the style of Gershwin and Cole Porter (I Can’ t Be New\, 2004)\, gospel music (The Gospel Truth\, 2007)\, traditional Cu ban “son” (An American In Havana\, 2016)\, and New Orleans junk piano (NOLA\, 2019). In 2014 she composed the music and lyrics to the musical th eater score Bull Durham\, The Musical (MGM). Her songs have been recorded by Tom Jones\, Michael Feinstein\, and Shemekia Copeland\, and her latest recording of originals\, The Birds of Florida\, took flight in 2022.
