The Tenderbellies are a Vermont-based string band that seamlessly blends Americana, bluegrass, new grass, jazz and rock. Their award-winning music ranges from bold and brazen to delicate and somber through tightly arranged songs and improvisational exploration.
The band thoughtfully bridges a variety of musical influences, creating a distinctive sound with a bluegrass backbone, but that also incorporates elements of blues, rock, soul, and jazz. The Tenderbellies have been recognized as one of Vermont's finest, winning the "Seven Daysies" Award for Best Bluegrass Group in Vermont seven times in a row, a testament to their beloved place in their music scene. The Tenderbellies have held local residencies in the Burlington area, shared the stage with nationally touring acts, toured on the west coast and performed at music festivals, clubs, and community events throughout New England.
