HOT BROWN SMACKDOWN
Hot Brown Smackdown is a rowdy Louisville newgrass fusion band mixing bluegrass pickin’ with rock, funk, jazz, and jam-band energy. With fiddle, banjo, mandolin, big grooves, and plenty of improvisation, they bring a high-octane show that feels like a backwoods party crashing into a psychedelic dance floor.
