Mountain Music Echoes through Hendersonville during Winter Ramble Weekend

Enjoy a weekend filled with Appalachian mountain music during The Winter Ramble, Feb. 27-March 1. This inaugural three-day celebration rambles throughout Hendersonville and Henderson County spotlighting performances of traditional mountain music — the kind born from front porches, churches and dance halls across the Blue Ridge.

“For three days, people can ramble all across Henderson County, warmed with music shaped by tradition, collaboration and place — and blown away by the talent lighting up our stages,” says Michelle Owens, executive director of Visit Hendersonville.

Listen to an authentic collection of bluegrass pickers, old-time string bands, Americana singer-songwriters, gospel harmonies and mountain storytellers. Cafes, breweries, wineries and small-stage venues will enliven this late-winter weekend with sounds that have echoed throughout the mountains for generations.

Headliners

Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Trey Hensley; chart-topping bluegrass quintet Unspoken Tradition; Asheville-based country-roots group Amanda Anne Platt &The Honeycutters; master fiddler and storyteller Josh Goforth; and husband-and-wife Americana duo Chatham Rabbits.

This isn’t a fenced-in festival. It’s a ramble — choose your own path through a community alive with sound and hospitality. Some events are free. Some are ticketed. Every stop will have its own spirit, and all will be part of the same shared rhythm.
