Jared Stout Band

Country follow

Alternative country group Jared Stout Band creates tunes for the soul rooted in the heart of Appalachia. The band’s discography journeys through the countryside of sound and promises to provide an evening of comforting bluesy folk. Stout’s thoughtful and original songwriting has solidified the group as one to watch, earning a runner-up accolade for the “On-the-Rise” award at FloydFest ’22. Opening performer Low Water Bridge Band has recently released its sophomore album Back to the Valley, which shares the story of small town life in the Shenandoah Valley.
