SUMMARY:Mountain Grass Unit Appalachian Smoke Tour 6:30PM 8:00PM
DESCRIPTION:Mountain Grass Unit are a Birmingham-born modern bluegrass an
 d roots band known for high-energy live shows\, adventurous musicianship
 \, and the rare chemistry that comes from years of playing together. Bui
 lt around the longtime musical bond of mandolinist/vocalist DruryAnderso
 n\, guitarist Luke Black\, and bassist Sam Wilson\, and completed by fid
 dle player Josiah Nelson\, the band brings a forward-looking spirit to b
 luegrass tradition\, blending instrumental firepower\, improvisation\, j
 amgrass energy\, and song-driven roots music into a sound made for the s
 tage. Mountain Grass Unit’s debut studio album\, Appalachian Smoke\, arr
 ives on August 28\, 2026 via Dualtone Records. Produced by six-time Gram
 my winner Vance Powell (Jack White\, Chris Stapleton\, Phish)\, the band
  approached the project with a new level of focus and intention\, broade
 ning both their songwriting and sonic ambitions. Joined by guests includ
 ing Greensky Bluegrass’ Anders Beck\, pedal steel player Karl Smakula an
 d Grammy-winning fiddler Michael Cleveland\, MGU created what fiddler Jo
 siah Nelson calls “a celebration of all the music we love.” Bassist Sam 
 Wilson adds\, “We wanted the album to feel like our live show.” After se
 lling out more than 30 shows in 2025\, winning IBMA Momentum Band of the
  Year\, and building a following that stretches from bluegrass tradition
 alists to newgrass fans\, jam-band devotees\, and a new generation of ro
 ots listeners\, Mountain Grass Unit have become one of the most exciting
  young forces in American acoustic music. With a nationwide tour and a G
 rand Ole Opry debut on the horizon\, alongside major festival appearance
 s including Bonnaroo and Railbird\, they are carrying bluegrass forward 
 with the fire of a live band\, the instincts of lifelong friends\, and a
  future that feels wide open.\n\nTickets: https://www.ticketmaster.com/m
