2023’s Best Folk Album Grammy Winner to Appear at The Historic Grove Theater
On Friday, April 5th at 7:00 PM, The Secret City Radio Show will be broadcast live on East Tennessee’s Own WDVX, from The Historic Grove Theater in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. It will be a night of live music featuring the Tennessee Ukulele Lady, Kelle Jolly, and Grammy Award-Winning, two-time Emmy-nominated, American Songster® Dom Flemons!
Originally known for co-founding The Carolina Chocolate Drops, Flemons has since crafted a long solo career reclaiming the black folk music genre and earning his place in the American Currents exhibit in the Country Music Hall of Fame. He comes to Oak Ridge on the tailwinds of his latest album release, Traveling Wildfire which won 2023’s Grammy for Best Folk Album. This is a must-see show to experience Dom’s talents as a multi-instrumentalist, storyteller, songwriter, and boundary-breaking producer of traditional folk songs, bringing them into the modern landscape of American Roots music.
Knoxville’s own jazz icon will also take the stage. “The Tennessee Ukulele Lady” and host of WUOT’s Jazz Jam, Kelle Jolly will join the show with her own storytelling style of southern folk traditions.
The Secret City Radio Show will present these notable and award-winning musicians, along with the community-enrichment initiative, The Periodic Tables, to commemorate The Oak Ridge 85 and build upon the story that is uniquely Oak Ridge.
Join host Chad Beauchaine at 7:00 pm by tuning in to WDVX, or experience the live presentation and special “off-air” performance by being a part of the studio audience. Tickets are available online at wdvx.com or at the box office the day of.
