Cocke County was hit hard by Hurricane Helene.

We thought the best way to help right now was to try to lift some spirits.

Downtown businesses are opened back up, and could use your support.

Come early, have lunch or supper downtown, check out our local shops, visit our sponsor H&H Vapors at 108 Church Street, and then enjoy some music.

Cocke county residents can attend for free, and all other ticket purchases will directly support the band coming to play for the community.

BYO-chair or blanket, no seating provides.

No outside food or drink allowed.

ADDRESS WILL BE SENT WITH TICKET CONFIRMATION.

“This is a band you know would be killer live.”

-Robin Hilton, NPR All Songs Considered, 2024

Established in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, Palmyra captures the collective spirit of three Virginia natives: Teddy Chipouras, Mānoa Bell, and Sasha Landon.

Palmyra straddles at least two musical worlds. They are, on one hand, a band from the South that plays traditional instruments and indeed once lived in the old-time locus of Floyd, Virginia. Comparisons to and a kinship with The Avett Brothers and even Old Crow Medicine Show are inevitable. On the other hand, Palmyra writes about grief, gender dysphoria and identity, and coming of age in songs that flirt with soul, post-rock, and even emo; the South, too, is the place of My Morning Jacket, Band of Horses, Cat Power, and now, Palmyra.

The band’s first full length LP, Restless, came out March 2025 on Oh Boy Records. Framed by moments of struggle, solidarity, and hard-won growth, Restless is an unqualified ringer for anyone who loves the space where the roar of indie rock collides with raw folk.
