Artist Information

Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, The Jack Wharff Band play a strikingly unique blend of bluegrass, Country and rock. Known for their electric live performances, masterful instrumentation, and their ability to make music that consistently defies the confines of genre, the young band burst onto the scene in 2024 with snippets of jaw-dropping original songs posted to TikTok and Reels. Comprised of vocalist/frontman Jack Wharff, drummer Garrett Howell, bassist Ryan Atchison and guitarist Evan Novoa, the salt of the earth four-piece have quickly captivated audiences with their infectious energy and unrelenting passion for the craft. They released their debut EP Richmond’s Most Wanted this summer, featuring “six tracks of bluegrass-fueled gold” (Holler), including their breakout track and streaming juggernaut “Washed.” The up-and-coming band has opened for acts including Sam Barber, Ole 60, Max McNown, and more. Early next year, The Jack Wharff Band will embark on their headlining From The Hills To The Holler Tour making its way to 13 cities across the U.S. before making its way to Europe.
