Spend your evening enjoying authentic Southern sound and storytelling with Jake Dwyer Band as part of our Weekend Sound Sessions series.

Based in Jonesborough, Tennessee, frontman Jake Dwyer leads the band with raw, soulful vocals and a style that blends vintage blues rock with heartfelt songwriting and a steady roots groove. Drawing inspiration from artists like Neil Young and The Band, while channeling the modern edge of Gary Clark Jr. and The Black Keys, Jake’s sound is both familiar and distinctly his own.

The band has steadily built momentum with a series of releases, including their debut album Late (2022), the introspective Driving Thoughts EP (2023), and Opportunity (2024), which expanded their place in the modern Southern roots scene. Their newest album, Snake Pit (2025), fully embraces their blues-driven style, offering a raw, road-worn collection rooted in storytelling and deep musical groove.

Jake Dwyer has performed at notable venues across the country, including The Pour House, Pete’s Candy Store, Brown’s Diner, and his hometown favorite Music On The Square in Jonesborough. His music has also been featured on Americana Highways, WBCM Radio Bristol, and WSM 650 AM.

Join us for a night of soulful sound, rich storytelling, and a true taste of modern Southern roots music.
