Lineup
Venue
Established in the Shenandoah Valley, Palmyraās set explores the fusion of traditional folk string instruments, three part harmonies and foot percussion.The trio captures the collective spirit of three Virginia natives, Teddy (he/him), Manoa (he/him), and Sasha (they/them), often described as a distant cousin of the progressive folk band, Punch Brothers, mixed with elements of Oliver Wood or the Avett Brothers. Palmyraās songs are intimate and contemplative, with arrangements that allow them to create the illusion of a full, larger-than-three ensemble. The trio's sound is a nod to Appalachia and Midwestern Americana, apparent through their stirring craftsmanship and dedication to a folk-driven, innovative experience throughout each live performance. In 2022, Palmyra made their Newport Folk Festival debut, were named the FloydFest 2022 On The Rise Winner, and performed over 200 tour dates on acclaimed stages up and down the east coast., including a support tour with national headlining act, Illiterate Light.

Great night! Great venue! Very reasonable! And of course Palmyra The Band is amazing! Check them out! Worth the 5 hour drive each way!
Love the band, love the venue. Excellent sight line from the balcony, where there are seats for old farts, like me.š
I have seen Palmyra on countless occasions, and they just keep getting better. The musicianship, songwriting, vocal melodies and harmonies, just fantastic. They so clearly enjoy what they do, and enjoy doing it together. They are a very special group.
