Psychedelic Jamgrass from Appalachia

Into The Fog is a psychedelic jamgrass band from Raleigh, North Carolina that combines timeless songwriting with progressive instrumentation and tight harmonies. The group consists of Winston Mitchell (mandolin), Derek Lane (upright bass), and Connor Kozlosky (guitar), with everyone contributing on vocals. The band’s members have varied musical backgrounds that range from bluegrass to funk, which helps create Into The Fog’s genre-jumping sound.

The band has released three studio albums and two live records. Their latest, Carolina Moon released in August of 2024, expands upon their latest sounds incorporating collaborative songwriting, improvised jams, and a focus on harmony. Live shows are a keystone of the Into The Fog experience, as the band expands songs to highlight their instrumental prowess and push the boundaries of the newgrass sound.

Into The Fog has shared the stage with the likes of Sam Bush, Leftover Salmon, Keller & The Keels, Town Mountain, Daniel Donato, Arkansauce, Shadowgrass, Big Richard, and The Grass Is Dead. No strangers to the festival scene, Into The Fog has played FloydFest, Rooster Walk, Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival, Charleston Bluegrass Festival, First City Music Festival, Earl Scruggs Music Festival, The Big What? and more.

Sunday at the Station was formed in 2009 by Donny Consla (vocals, guitar, and mandolin) and Matt Marr (vocals, banjo, and guitar) in Meadville, PA. The duo, inspired by The Avett Brothers, Doc Watson, Rancid, and Lucero started writing songs and performing locally. Soon, they were joined by Scott Stearns on upright bass and the group’s sound started to take shape. Lastly, Josh Shaffer joined the band on drums and washboard.

Sunday at the Station’s sound has been described as a blend of high-energy Americana, folk, and bluegrass with a touch of punk melody and bluesy soul. The band has been performing in the Tri-state area for over a decade and is always a crowd favorite, providing an entertaining and interactive performance. In the spring of 2022, Sunday at the Station will release their third full length album, “Revival”.
