Sierra Hull is widely regarded to be a master of the mandolin. A two-time Grammy nominated artist and songwriter, recognized for both her most recent projects, 25 Trips (2020) and Weighted Mind (2016), she is also the 6-time recipient of IBMA's Mandolin Player of the Year, the first woman to ever receive this distinction. She has graced the country's most iconic stages, including Carnegie Hall, the Grand Ole Opry, and the White House.
Originally hailing from Byrdstown in beautiful Pickett County, her sound is rooted in bluegrass. Her career has taken her all around the world, it has been at least 15 years that Sierra has not played a local festival. We are excited to have Sierra Coming Home and she is bringing some friends with her.
Richard and Wendy DeVries, co-own "The Farm" with Randy and Sandy Campbell. Wendy does most of the scheduling and she said, "We are so excited to have Sierra Hull coming to The Farm along with other many talents. It is sure to be a great day."
Special guests who will also perform include Dan Tyminski, Jake Hoot, Lindsay Lou, and Gabe Lee. More guest performers will also be announced at a later date.
Hull has said of Tyminski, "I've been a huge Dan fan since I first got into music. From his time with Lonesome River Band to being a longtime member of Alison Krauss and Union Station to his amazing solo career, he's long been a hero and someone I'm so grateful to call a friend."
Country singer Jake Hoot, season 17 winner of NBC's "The Voice", has strong roots in the area.
Hull also stated, "Both Lindsay Lou and Gabe Lee are two of my favorites who I've been lucky enough to have open recent tours for me and the band. Lindsay is one of my favorite voices of this generation, and Gabe is an incredible songwriter and storyteller who I've recently become a big fan of."
