Come see Willow and Jesse live at the Mitchell Opera House on April 26th, 2025 starting at 7p!
Achieving the praise and appreciation of bluegrass heroes such as Gary “Biscuit” Davis (Dolly Parton, 5-time National Banjo Champion), Noam Pikelny (Punch Brothers, Mighty Poplar), Jack Tuttle (Molly Tuttle), Tony Trischka, Jens Kruger (Kruger Brothers), and numerous others, Willow & Jesse are exceptional ambassadors of American music, combining a rich knowledge of the history of Appalachian, jazz, and popular American traditions with a fresh and original musical identity. The two are highly influential artists each in their own right with a deep technical mastery of their craft and a passion for connecting to audiences through an outstanding breadth of musical styles.
Willow Osborne was the first bluegrass artist to “go viral” in the modern age of social media, inspiring countless new banjoists to pick up the instrument since her breakthrough YouTube videos in 2012. She remains universally known and appreciated both in the world of bluegrass and among music lovers of every genre for her effortless musicality, elegant touch, and distinctive singing voice.
Jesse Blue Eads has developed a wide reputation as an emerging innovator of the five-string banjo with a pioneering approach developed from years of experience as an in-demand Los Angeles sideman for various instruments and genres. Jesse’s agility and complex vocabulary are balanced with his interactive, sensitive playing style and simple yet evocative singing, Notable appearances by Willow & Jesse have included Appalachia Sessions w/ Chris Blue (Seasons 2 & 3), Dollywood’s Harvest Festival, Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country at the Caverns, Smoky Mountain Tunes & Tales, IBMA World of Bluegrass Festival, and an extensive list of individual appearances.
