The Empty Bottle String Band specializes in playing toe-tapping, highly danceable traditional Appalachian music.  They are known for their upbeat tunes and feel-good music. Their impressive stage presence is coupled with a delightfully self-effacing strength and confidence in their music. Their sound is inventive, while still staying close to the old time string band tradition of the 1930's.  They have become a festival favorite wherever they go and are one of the Appalachian region’s most popular old-time groups.

Band members are:

Tyler Hughes:  banjo and vocals

Kristal Harman: guitar and vocals

Stephanie Duckworth: bass and vocals
