Hendersonville Symphony Orchestra Continues this Spring with Music in the Vines Series at Marked Tree Vineyard.

The Hendersonville Symphony Orchestra (HSO) announces

the latest lineup for, “Music in the Vines” music showcase at Marked Tree Vineyard in Flat

Rock. This series will feature four diverse ensembles performing against the backdrop of the

beautiful rolling hills at Marked Tree.

The series begins Saturday May 2 nd with Trey Hensley – referred to as “Nashville’s hottest young

player” by Acoustic Guitar magazine—was voted the 2023 and 2025 IBMA Guitar Player of the

Year. Hensley received his first GRAMMY® Award at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards as a

member of The Taj Mahal Sextet.  Hensley’s hit single Tucson is currently #3 on the IBMA

Bluegrass charts.

The next performance on May 15 th is the first return to the stage of The Hot Club of Asheville

since Hurricane Helene. The Hot Club is a collective of Asheville’s finest professional

musicians, coming together with a shared love of Gypsy Jazz music. The band honors the

traditional Gypsy Swing in the styles of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli from the

1930-50’s, while infusing the tradition with more modern qualities of jazz expression

Our featured artist on May 29 th is guitarist David Grier. Grier’s journey to becoming one of the

greatest flat-pick guitarists in the world started at a young age at the feet of Bluegrass legend,

Bill Monroe. Grier’s father Lamar Grier was a member of “Bill Monroe’s Bluegrass Boys” in the

mid-1960s. David quickly found a strong passion for guitar and began to develop what is now

his own world-renowned distinctive style. 

The final concert of the series is on June 14 th and features the transatlantic folk group, The

Foreign Landers. Rooted in bluegrass and Celtic tradition, the Foreign Landers create their

own sound with reflective songwriting and enchanting singing shaped by lives lived across

borders. Led by vocalist and banjoist Tabitha Agnew Benedict of Northern Ireland and

mandolinist David Benedict of South Carolina, The Foreign Landers have built a reputation for

music that feels deeply personal. Also featuring Nate Sabat on bass and Julian Pinelli on fiddle.

“We are excited to continue the great music this Spring with Music in the Vines." says Paul

Conroy, Executive Director of the HSO.  To start the year we will feature four groups with

unique styles and backgrounds.  A perfect match with the Marked Tree Vineyard environment.”
