Bristol Sessions Festival
2026-05-22 - 2027-05-29
Twelve Nights. One Story.
One night per month. Every third Friday. Twelve chapters of a story that connects the 1927 recordings to the living, breathing music culture of Appalachia today.
The series is structured as a three-act arc.
Act 1 returns to the origin: the recordings, the Carter Family, Jimmie Rodgers, and the raw sound that started everything.
Act 2 traces the evolution: bluegrass, the pickers, the women who shaped the genre, and the holiday traditions of the mountains.
Act 3 builds toward the centennial: next-generation songwriters, outlaw country, and the echoes of Bristol’s lasting impact on American music.
Each night stands on its own. Together, they build something bigger: a community that’s been rehearsing this celebration for an entire year.
