January Jams will return to Barter Theater in 2025. Tickets for the jams are $30.

The schedule is as follows:

– JANUARY 3 AT 7 P.M.: The Wildmans, a brother-sister-led band from Floyd, Va., bring a fresh twist to Appalachian mountain music with a deep-rooted foundation in bluegrass and old-time traditions.   

 – JANUARY 4 AT 7 P.M.: Jessica Lea Mayfield, an Ohio-born singer-songwriter known for her raw lyrics and hauntingly unique blend of folk, grunge, and indie rock, has carved a path all her own in the music world.

– JANUARY 10 AT 7 P.M.: Tumbao. With more than heart-pounding rhythms and irresistible melodies, the band provides a cultural journey that celebrates the rich traditions and diverse heritage of Latin America.

– JANUARY 17 AT 7 P.M.: Kashus Culpepper continues crafting genuine folk tales of honest longing, disquieting loss, and nostalgia through a brilliant sheen of fresh insight with humble humor.

– JANUARY 18 AT 7 P.M.: 15 years creating an evolving “gumbo” of genres, blending country, blues, jazz, rockabilly, and more. With their latest album, Roll It Out, The Deslondes channel a unique camaraderie and shared history that feels like “the old family farm.”

– JANUARY 24 AT 7 P.M.: East Nash Grass’s collective resume rings with high profile award wins, nominations, and prominent gigs. Every member is an accomplished professional in their own right, and each would be a featured musician in any band. 

– JANUARY 25 AT 7 P.M.: Founding member of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, John McEuen, brings with him 45+ years of worldwide performing with his banjo, fiddle, guitar, and mandolin.
