Featuring Matt Downer, Clark Williams and Daniel Binkley, the New Binkley Brothers are a old time string band from Chattanooga. They play originals songs and some passed down from porch to porch, so to say.

The band spotlights traditional bluegrass with fiddle sawing and plunking plus a clawhammer banjo and the spirit of Chattanooga’s rich old-time music heritage.  Featuring Matt Downer, Daniel Binkley and Clark Williams it is the people’s music.  Downer says “I always prefer the old-time music because a lot of untrained people were doing it and untrained voices singing it.”

Uncle Lightnin’ has been a staple of alt-country lovers diet for over 10 years. They’re working on a new record to be released soon and have been seen at Nightfall this year.  This  and have played and toured most of the United States.

These edgy New Southerners have a rousing mix of Brit sounds with a rock and roll flavor.  Two of their six players are talented songwriters producing powerful lyrics that get a crowd moving.
