About the Event

Hiss Golden Messenger 

 

Hiss Golden Messenger is the long-running musical project led by North Carolina-basedsinger, songwriter, and producer M.C. Taylor. The project has evolved over the last decade intoone of the most respected and celebrated in contemporary Americana, blending folk, country,soul and gospel influences with deeply introspective, poetic, and conscious songwriting.


Across multiple critically acclaimed, Grammy nominated albums, Hiss Golden Messenger has become known for its warmth and emotional clarity, as well as Taylor’s ability to connect the personal and poetic with the political without losing intimacy or musical grace.


The forthcoming I’m People continues this trajectory, offering a reflective collection of songs that speak to resilience, community, radical hopefulness, and the quiet human moments that animate and illuminate the everyday. It is among Taylor’s greatest and most profound work.


Hiss Golden Messenger sits naturally alongside artists and releases that value craft, storytelling, and authenticity, and aligns well with audiences attuned to indie, folk, Americana, roots, and contemporary country music.

 

Opener - The Golden Hours

Catch the unveiling of The Golden Hours, a new Charlottesville-based band formed by the members of acclaimed indie-folk acts Lowland Hum and David Wax Museum. These musicians have been touring and recording for over 20 years, featured on CBS Saturday Morning and NPR’s Tiny Desk, and lauded by The New York Times, Washington Post, TIME and Rolling Stone, among others.

 

The Golden Hours’ debut record Terra Nova (to be released in 2026) includes “Day Wheel,” an NPR Music Song of the Day. The forth coming album brings together the power of these four songwriters in an artifact that is simultaneously lush and distilled, emotionally probing, and conceptually expansive.
