Swamp Grass is a Washington DC bluegrass outfit born out of weekly jam sessions on Capitol Hill, where things tend to get extra swampy. They tear into traditional bluegrass standards alongside modern arrangements and hooky originals, leaving plenty of room for extended improvisation and on-the-spot detours. Their live shows have become a favorite at local breweries and roadhouses, including Babycat Brewery and Hank Dietle’s Tavern, where they pack happy hour crowds with foot-stomping Appalachian hillbilly vibes and a loose, good-time feel.

Tribute to Robbie White Concert
We’re dedicating this show to our longtime friend Robbie White, who is dealing with serious health issues. For decades, Robbie has been one of the most stalwart supporters of homegrown DC music, and there was never a gig by such bands as The Slickee Boys, The Dynettes, Switchblade or my own band, Bound For Glory, where Robbie was not in attendance. When Maura and I first started playing together, Robbie was our first fan, and in fact he was oftentimes our&nbsp;only&nbsp;fan at shows in the early days. Having grown up like I did, listening to WHFS, he has carried on the great legacy of DC progressive radio. He is truly dedicated, so we’re dedicating this show to him.
Songwriting husband-and-wife duo Pete and Maura Kennedy bring their “Smoketree” album release tour to Hank Dietle’s Tavern for their debut appearance! With more than two dozen albums, years on the road with Nanci Griffith’s Blue Moon Orchestra, and a global touring history that spans the US, Canada, the UK, and Europe, The Kennedys deliver energized folk-rock packed with hooks, harmony, and heart. “Smoketree” is filled with brand-new originals that take on environmental concerns, social upheaval, and the search for peace—always with their trademark tone of hope and uplift. Come ready for great songs, great stories, and the kind of night you only get with true wandering troubadours.

• David has played in Goin' Goin' Gone for more than 40 years. What you might not know is that he and Russ Beeker had a duo called The Beverly Brothers that played at Kramerbooks for more than a decade. David's solo act includes a few GGG tunes but mostly it's songs that he wrote that the band never played, songs that move inside his soul, songs he sings to his living room walls.&nbsp;
• Skip played a lot of drums and guitar in his life until having an epiphany about music. He had an experience of knowing he could play the blues, and he just had to do it. He says surrendering in music is being drawn to play and being able to say, "I am a musician." Then, you just go with what you play in the moment. He also says, "Music is available to everybody." And it's important to just start, and you can learn to play music like being in a conversation.

<h4>This month: </h4><h2>The Whereabouts </h2>
Four seasoned pros, one deep love of bluegrass. The Whereabouts bring decades of experience, gorgeous harmonies, and inventive arrangements to the Dietle's stage — the kind of show that's as heartfelt as it is unforgettable.
Jimmy Heffernan — Nashville session ace and one of the true masters of the resonator guitar, with 40+ years alongside Larry Sparks, Red Allen, Charlie Louvin, Joe Diffie, and Brad Paisley. Anne Luna — Powerhouse bassist, vocalist, and songwriter; a decade with The Hard Road Trio and 20+ albums with Alan Munde, Amanda Shires, and more. Beth Mead — 5-string banjo and a pure, compelling voice; 30+ years of performing, coauthor of "The Great American Songbook for Banjo" with Alan Munde. John Catterall — Mandolin, guitar, and a lifelong devotion to blended vocal harmony.
Come early, grab a seat, and let these four remind you why roots music still hits so hard.
