Now\, as they navigate adulthood\, they’re equally tired of the music institutions telling them what their music should sound like — so they dunked it in patchouli and a skate-and-destroy ethos that brings an enduring sound into the modern age. \n\n\n\n\nNashville’s psychedelic punk-grass rockers\, Sicard Hollow\, grew up sick of any existing institution telling them who and what to be. Now\, as they navigate adulthood\, they’re equally tired of the music institutions telling them what their music should sound like— so they dunked it in patchouli and a skate-and-destroy ethos that brings an enduring sound into the modern age. \nBefore the band met in 2018\, none of the members ever considered playing bluegrass. Matt Rennick (violin) was working on electronic music\, Will Herrin (mandolin/vocals) was playing guitar in rock bands\, and Alex King (guitar/vocals) was barely playing music at all. After a few jam sessions\, the bluegrass just kind of happened. Since adding Parrish Gabriel (bass) in the Fall of 2019\, the band has been on a journey of self discovery within the genre while challenging themselves to make it their own. \nWhether it was skateboarding or chasing jam bands\, singer/guitar-player Alex King always had a fierce desire to succeed on his own terms. He spent years as an artist without an art-form\, searching for a home by pouring every bit of his sweat and heart into anything he was doing. “It took years for me to land on music\,” King says\, referencing “This I Know” from the album\, “but when I found that fire inside my heart\, I found my home.” \nIt just so happened that finding that home coincided with the shutdown of live music due to the pandemic that canceled the entire release tour supporting their debut studio record\, ‘Secret of the Breeze.’ During that time\, the band turned inward to reflect on their identity and how they could add their generation’s voice to a timeless genre of music. \nThe result\, with the help of producer John Mailander (Billy Strings\, Bruce Hornsby) and Recording/mixing engineer Dan Davis (Billy Strings\, Zac Brown Band\, Dierks Bentley)\, was a combination of pop-punk melodies\, psychedelic instrumental breaks\, and existential song-writing all packaged as a bluegrass quartet dressed in tattoos and tie-dyes. \nAfter six years of tearing up festival stages around the country like Peach Festival\, Summer Camp\, CaveFest at the Caverns\, WinterWonderGrass\, Blue Ox\, and Hillberry\, as well as gassing up sold-out crowds supporting artists like the Infamous Stringdusters\, Leftover Salmon\, Eggy\, Sam Bush\, Kitchen Dwellers\, Dogs in a Pile\, Dopapod\, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong\, and Yonder Mountain String Band\, Sicard Hollow has a full tank and a whole lot guts as they hit the road in 2025. \nLearn more about Sicard Hollow here. \n\n\n\nFeaturing some of the Midwest’s finest bluegrass musicians—including founding members of Kind Country—The Johnson Brothers blend deep-rooted tradition with adventurous improvisation. Drawing inspiration from bluegrass legends like Tony Rice and Norman Blake while embracing the free-spirited energy of Yonder Mountain String Band The Big Wu and Grateful Dead the band delivers a fresh take on American roots music. \nWith nearly a decade of performing together on stages across the country The Johnson Brothers have developed a sound that honors the traditions of bluegrass while pushing the music forward through dynamic interplay tasteful improvisation and high-energy live performances. Whether it’s a driving fiddle tune a timeless ballad or an extended jam their music is rooted in authenticity and fueled by a shared love of the American string band tradition. \nLearn more about The Johnson Brothers here.
