A regular for years on the Grand Ole Opry a nd a founding member of acclaimed bluegrass group Balsam Range\, Darren no w spends his time recording\, writing new songs\, and performing original roots music inspired by the history &\; culture of his native Western N orth Carolina — homegrown\, wholehearted music with a purpose.\n\n\n\nA punchy mandolinist with instrumentation nods to Bill Monroe and Marty Stu art\, Darren is also an introspective songwriter\, technical harmony singe r\, convincing lead vocalist\, and a man on a mission. His shows are a tai lored experience — genuine\, entertaining\, and an extended handshake to the community.\, reflecting the fun-witted and approachable character for med in his raising.\n\n\n\nDarren’s passion is sharing raw\, honest-to-g oodness\, quality music with his audience. Music that’s good for his sou l and theirs too. “That’s all I want\,” says Darren. “I want to be a positive part of other people’s lives with music\, you know? I want t o be an ambassador to roots music – tip my hat to the past while looking forward at the same time. This music was intended to be played in a way t hat adds joy to the community. All I want is to restore that purpose\, not to complete a transaction.” \n\n\n\nDarren says that when you come out to a show\, whatever you do\, please come talk afterward. “I’m like W illie Nelson. ‘I don’t want fans\, I want friends.’ It’s a communa l thing.” \n\n\n\nYou can catch Darren almost every week sharing the mu sic he loves somewhere\, traveling both nationally and internationally — as a solo artist\, in collaboration with other musicians\, and with his o wn Darren Nicholson Band — a group of Appalachian musicians with a comm on respect for and love of American acoustic music who creatively blend bl uegrass\, folk\, gospel\, and swing into a new music experience. \n\n\n\n Doors at 6pm — \;show starts at 7pm.

Always a genre-defying artist\, Anto nel blends her passion for classic country\, jazz and surf rock with this collection of songs\, and the result is a fresh hybrid of musical styles t hat feels both vintage and hyper-modern. Recorded at Nashville’s Fitting Room Studio\, the band includes heavy hitters Ethan Ballinger (Miranda La mbert)\, Joe Reed (Merle Haggard)\, Paul Sgroi (Josh Hedley) and San Diego jazz phenom Tony Econom. \;\n\n\n\nAntonel grew up in a seaside San D iego town called Ocean Beach\, listening to pop and R&\;B hits and stud ying classical piano until she was eighteen. She cites an eclectic range o f artists as her earliest musical inspirations: Tori Amos for her peculiar phrasing and distinct songwriting\, Otis Redding for his rich\, emotive v ocal delivery. After graduating from UC Berkeley\, she moved to Buenos Air es\, where she answered a Craigslist ad for a singer who sounds like June Carter Cash\, and contributed vocals to several jingles for MTV and Jeep t hat aired throughout Latin America. She sang in a friend’s electro-cumbi a band for a while before returning to California\, where she started sing ing professionally at weddings\, bars\, and local venues. But it wasn’t until discovering country music that she felt at home. “One day I random ly bought a bunch of 99 cent country records and fell in love with the gen re\; the concision of the writing\, the wit\, how it doesn’t take itself too seriously even while dealing with deep subject matter.” \;\n\n\ n\nAntonel’s debut album Always the Outsider\, released in 2022\, blends elements of mid-century country music with unconventional subject matter and virtuosic instrumentation– including tracks with Doug Pettibone (Luc inda Williams) on pedal steel and acoustic guitar. The thematically unique collection explores metaphysical and supernatural concepts (alien-earthli ng romance\, past-life trauma) as well as grounded narratives of everyday experience (isolation\, disconnectedness\, sexual desire\, feeling like an alien in your own body). Always the Outsider was critically praised\, net ting coverage in publications from Holler Country to The Bluegrass Situati on\, and was hailed as a 2022 Essential Album by Saving Country Music.Musi c 8:30-11:30pm $10 cover at the door. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://youtu.be/G pdiE0oeKas?si=byv_F1rpQwSNblb5\n\n\n\n\n\n ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://jackofthewood.com/wp-content/uploads/202 6/08/09-11-26_StacyAntonel_IG_1080x1440-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:12059@jackofthewood.com DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260912T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260912T180000 DTSTAMP:20260718T212955Z URL:https://jackofthewood.com/events/nobodys-darling-string-band-3-2026-09 -05-2026-09-12/ SUMMARY:NOBODY'S DARLING STRING BAND DESCRIPTION:\nNobody’s Darling String Band plays lively music in the old- time tradition at Jack of the Wood Pub every Saturday afternoon from 4-6pm .\n\n\n\nBand Members include Dona Cavanagh\, fiddle\; Zena Rubin\, banjo- uke\; Maxine Herring\, rhythm guitar\; Hilary Dirlam\, melody guitar\; and Celia Millington-Wyckoff\, bass.\n\n\n\nThe five women comprising Nobody ’s Darling each have a long history of playing old-time music.
