Musical Bio
Quattlebaum doesn’t just play music—he conjures it, bending time and space. His banjo can whisper like a secret or roar like a freight train, while his voice haunts the wind like a ghost in the pines. Armed with a banjo, cello banjo, and guitar, his performances blend storytelling, humor, and raw energy. Whether strutting across the stage like a lanky heron or unleashing shreddy banjo licks, Quattlebaum commands attention, weaving tales of river ramblings, backroad haunts, and wild-eyed wanderers. His voice—gritty, soulful, and unfiltered—rides the line between raw vulnerability and raucous revelry, pulling audiences into a world where bluegrass, folk, and cosmic country collide.
After years on the road, from dive bars to festival main stages, Quattlebaum’s journey has taken him across continents and back again. From founding the acclaimed folk outfit Crow and the Canyon to sharing festival bills with icons at Outside Lands, Northwest String Summit, and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, he has left his mark on stages big and small. As a solo artist, his 2018 EP Vol. 1 unveiled a hypnotic blend of vintage folk and gritty Americana, earning him a special niche in the scene.
Offstage, he’s a musical curator, a festival founder, and an unwavering champion of weird art. Whether leading a raucous sing-along or pulling an audience into a hushed, banjo-plucked trance, Quattlebaum doesn’t just perform—he creates an experience, one song, one story, and one foot-stomping moment at a time.
