Addie Levy
From a very young age she has shared her talents of music, dance and communication with a wide variety of audience. At the age of 10, she started her path of learning an instrument and was taught by local musicians the art of Appalachian Old Time, Gospel and Bluegrass music. She simply fell in love with the “happy music” that was so rich in history, stories, and community encouragement. She now plays, guitar, mandolin, fiddle, upright bass.

Butch Ross
Butch Ross
Chattanooga multi-instrumentalist and mountain dulcimer maestro Butch Ross has tackled everything from Radiohead to Bach and come away with a renewed appreciation for what the humble dulcimer is capable of. No genre is off-limits, nor is there a limit to what Ross has envisioned for this specific instrument. The dulcimer is an unassuming thing, with a handful of strings and a history that feels embedded in the lineage of countless Appalachian musicians. But Ross has taken it and made it something more, something remarkable and versatile. His music is born from his respect for its abilities, a respect born from the years he’s spent prying apart its pieces and discovering new sounds where none existed before. It is this groundbreaking and iconoclastic approach that caused ukulele-virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro to comment, “Now I know what a dulcimer is supposed to sound like.”
