ABOUT LONESOME RIVER BAND
Since its formation decades ago, Lonesome River Band continues its reputation as one of the most respected names in bluegrass music. Five-time International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) Banjo Player of the Year, and winner of the Steve Martin Prize for Excellence in Banjo and Bluegrass, Sammy Shelor leads the group that is constantly breaking new ground in acoustic music. With two stellar lead vocalists, Jesse Smathers (guitar) and Adam Miller (mandolin), and the impressive talents of Mike Hartgrove (fiddle) and Kameron Keller (bass), the band seamlessly comes together, performing the trademark sound that fans continue to embrace.
ABOUT JACKSON CUNNINGHAM & NOBODY’S BUSINESS
Nobody’s Business is a band from Southwest Virginia/Northwest North Carolina and surrounding areas that plays traditional first generation bluegrass, old time and classic era country. Led by Jackson Cunningham on guitar and joined by Raistlin Brabson on fiddle and Corbin Hayslett on banjo, Nobody’s Business will get the folks up dancing in the park!
Jackson Cunningham is also a talented luthier. His inspiration has always been the instruments his musical heroes used to perform classic American roots music. He is currently promoting his 2nd Annual Cunningham Guitar Raffle in support of Floyd’s own Handmade Music School and their Share The Music Scholarship Fund.

ABOUT THE MOVIE: MINIONS: THE RISE OF GRU
In the 1970s, young Gru tries to join a group of supervillains called the Vicious 6 after they oust their leader — the legendary fighter Wild Knuckles. When the interview turns disastrous, Gru and his Minions go on the run with the Vicious 6 hot on their tails. Luckily, he finds an unlikely source for guidance — Wild Knuckles himself — and soon discovers that even bad guys need a little help from their friends.
